+In order to use Hugo Pipes function on an asset file containing Go Template magic the function `resources.ExecuteAsTemplate` must be used.
+
+The function takes three arguments: the resource target path, the template context, and the resource object.
+
+```go-html-template
+// assets/sass/template.scss
+$backgroundColor: {{ .Param "backgroundColor" }};
+$textColor: {{ .Param "textColor" }};
+body{
+ background-color:$backgroundColor;
+ color: $textColor;
+}
+// [...]
+```
+
+
+```go-html-template
+{{ $sassTemplate := resources.Get "sass/template.scss" }}
+{{ $style := $sassTemplate | resources.ExecuteAsTemplate "main.scss" . | resources.ToCSS }}
+```
