helperOptions

  • Edit on GitHub

The options argument passed to a helper function when called by a Helper Expression.

Object

When a helper function is called by a Helper Expression, a helperOptions object is passed with the following properties:

stache.registerHelper("myHelper", function(helperOptions){
  helperOptions.fn      //-> sectionRenderer(){}
  helperOptions.inverse //-> sectionRenderer(){}
  helperOptions.hash    //-> Object
  helperOptions.context //-> *
  helperOptions.scope   //-> Scope
  helperOptions.option  //-> Scope.Options
});

Options

  • fn {sectionRenderer(context, helpers)}:

    Renders the "truthy" subsection BLOCK. options.fn is only available if the helper is called as a {{#expression}} or {{^expression}}. Read about section renderer for more information.

  • inverse {sectionRenderer(context, helpers)}:

    Renders the "falsey" subsection INVERSE. options.inverse is only available if the helper is called as a {{#expression}} or {{^expression}} and {{else}} is used. Read about section renderer for more information.

  • hash {Object}:

    An object containing all of the Hash expression keys and values. For example:

    {{helper arg1 arg2 name=value other=3 position="top"}}
    

    might provide a hash like:

    {
            name: compute("Mr. Pig"),
            other: 3,
            position: "top"
    }
    
  • context {*}:

    The current context the stache helper is called within. Read Scope and Context for more information.

  • scope {can-view-scope}:

    An object that represents the current context and all parent contexts. It can be used to look up key values in the current scope. Read Scope and Context and can-view-scope for more information.

  • options {Options}:

    It can be used to look up key values in the current options scope. Read Scope and Context and Options for more information.
