Generic JavaScript helpers that can be used with any template engine. Handlebars, Lo-Dash, Underscore, or any engine that supports helper functions.
Please consider following this project's author, Jon Schlinkert, and consider starring the project to show your ❤️ and support.
Install with npm:
$ npm install --save template-helpers
To get all helpers:
const helpers = require('template-helpers')();
console.log(helpers);
Get a specific helper category
// get only the math helpers
const helpers = require('template-helpers')('math');
Get multiple helper categories
// get only the math helpers
const helpers = require('template-helpers')(['math', 'string']);
Lo-Dash Example
const helpers = require('template-helpers')('array');
// pass helpers on `imports`
const imports = { imports: helpers };
// compile a template
const fn = _.template('<%= first(foo) %>', imports);
// render
fn({ foo: ['a', 'b', 'c'] });
//=> 'a'
Handlebars and Lo-Dash both allow dot notation to be used for referencing helpers. I'd be happy to add examples for other engines if someone wants to do a PR.
Example
<%= path.dirname("a/b/c/d.js") %>
This can be used as a way of working around potential naming conflicts.
