将JavaScript对象/哈希传递给Handlebars帮助器？

Question

Is it possible to pass a JavaScript object/hash into a Handlebars helper call? I'd like to do something like this:

<label>Label here</label>
{{#textField {'id':'text_field_1', 'class':'some-class', size:30} }}{{/textField}}
<p>Help text here.</p>

Here is a jsFiddle . Currently it produces the following error

Uncaught Error: Parse error on line 3:
...bel>  {{#textField {'id':'text_field_1'
----------------------^
Expecting 'CLOSE', 'CLOSE_UNESCAPED', 'STRING', 'INTEGER', 'BOOLEAN', 'ID', 'DATA', 'SEP', got 'INVALID' 

Alternatively I could probably do this and split on ',', but I am not fond of the syntax:

{{#textField "'id'='text_field_1','class'='some-class',size=30"}}{{/textField}}

NOTE: I specifically do NOT want to pass data/attributes (id, class, size, etc.) into the template() method as a JSON object. I want everything in the template.

Answer 1

Solved. I did this:

Helper:

Handlebars.registerHelper('textField', function(options) {
    var attributes = [];

    for (var attributeName in options.hash) {
      attributes.push(attributeName + '="' + options.hash[attributeName] + '"');
    }

    return new Handlebars.SafeString('<input type="text" ' + attributes.join(' ') + ' />');
});

And the template:

<label>Label here</label>
{{textField id="text_field_1" class="some-class" size="30" data-something="data value"}}
<p>Help text here.</p>

Per the documentation (bottom of the page), you can pass in a variable number of parameters to a helper method, and they will be available in options.hash (assuming "options" is a parameter to your helper method). And what's also nice about this is that you can use named parameters, and parameter order doesn't matter.

Answer 2

I found another best way to pass objects.

Template:

{{textField dataAttribs='{"text":"Hello", "class": "text-field"}'}}

Helper:

Handlebars.registerHelper('textField', function(options) {
    var attribs;

    attribs = JSON.parse(options.hash.dataAttribs);
    console.log(attribs.text + " -- " + attribs.class);
    ......
    ........
});
