Im trying to build a related info widget, based on the data from the YAML front-matter.
Each page on my collection has some tags associated, and the idea would be to only show those pages who have tags in common with the currently viewed page.
I've managed to get the complete tags outputting the existent pages with the following code:
<section class="see-also">
{{#each tags}}
<p>In <span class="tag">{{tag}}</span>:</p>
{{#each pages}}
<li>{{data.title}}</li>
{{/each}}
{{/each}}
</section>
Can I apply some sort of filter on {{#each tags}} ?
Thanks.
There's an inArray helper that you can use to test if the current tag is in the tags collection on the page being currently rendered:
<section class="see-also">
{{#each tags}}
{{#inArray ../page.tags tag }}
<p>In <span class="tag">{{tag}}</span>:</p>
{{#each pages}}
<li>{{data.title}}</li>
{{/each}}
{{/inArray}}
{{/each}}
</section>
You might have to modify the parent path syntax to account for the additional block helper:
<section class="see-also">
{{#each tags}}
{{#inArray ../page.tags tag }}
<p>In <span class="tag">{{tag}}</span>:</p>
{{#each ../pages}}
<li>{{../data.title}}</li>
{{/each}}
{{/inArray}}
{{/each}}
</section>

I have a JSON object that I am looping through to dynamically create x amount of ULs then LIs. I need to create two {{#each}} to create the content. However when I add a CSS class to my handlebars template it does not come through onto the UL as it does in the second {{#each}} - how do I stop this? Here is the template:
<div class="{{panel-container__Css-class}} {{panel-menu__Css-class}}" data-component="panel">
{{#each sections}}
<ul id="{{id}}" class="{{panel-menu__Css-class}}">
{{#each list}}
<li>{{title}}</li>
{{/each}}
</ul>
{{/each}}
</div>
Here is what i am passing in:
<nav data-component="navigation">
{{> nav-dropdown menu-button__Css-class="menu-button" menu-button__Css-class-nav="panel" target-id="panel-nav" }}
{{> nav-dropdown menu-button__Css-class="region-button" menu-button__Css-class-nav="region" target-id="panel-region" menu-button__copy=panel.copy}}
{{!--var links = [{"title": "Test","url": "/"}];--}}
{{> panel panel-menu__Css-class="navigation__menu-styles" panel-container__Css-class="navigation__menu-container" sections=navigation.sections links=navigation.sections.list }}
</nav>
I think what you are looking for is the Handlebars path that will allow you to obtain the value of panel-menu__Css-class from within {{#each sections}}. You need to understand that when you are within {{#each sections}}, your this context is the currently iterated element of the sections array. You must step up a level to the parent context which has the panel-menu__Css-class property you are trying to access:
<ul id="{{id}}" class="{{../panel-menu__Css-class}}">
BigCommerce Stencil
I totally winged the below snippet. But i need a hint on doing that the correct way. I basically need to get the top 4 products from each toptier category sorted by date-added (to bigcommerce)
{{#each categories}}
{{#each products sort:date-added limit:4}}
{{name}}
{{/each}}
{{/each}}
To add, the syntax I would use is the following. However, I don't have any evidence that such a way exists yet.
home.html
{{> components/product/all-products grid=products.all default_image=theme_settings.default_image}}'
all-products.html being a custom file.
all-products.html
{{#if grid}}
<section class="products-new {{theme_settings.background-for-new-products}}">
<div class="layout-container">
<h1 class="section-title">{{lang 'product.product_blocks.new_products.heading'}}</h1>
<div class="product-grid">
{{#each grid}}
{{> components/product/product-item this show_quickshop=true show_rating=true default_image=../default_image}}
{{/each}}
</div>
</div>
</section>
{{/if}}
I'm trying to create a comments component with Blaze but i don't know how to handle the replies.
This is the schema for the 'comment' element:
_id, authorId, message, replies (those are comment ids), isReply (boolean).
Then I created a template with html
{{#each message}}
<div class="message">
<h2>{{author}}</h2>
<p>{{message</p>
<a class="button">Reply</a>
</div>
{{#each replies}}
<div class="message">
<h2>{{author}}</h2>
<p>{{message</p>
<a class="button">Reply</a>
</div>
{{/each}}
{{/each}}
Well, how do I handle the replies of the replies? Any Idea?
You need to use the templates recursively! An example
In your case, something like the following:
{{#each message}}
<div class="message">
<h2>{{author}}</h2>
<p>{{message</p>
<a class="button">Reply</a>
</div>
{{#each replies}}
{{> reply}}
{{/each}}
{{/each}}
<template name="reply">
<div class="message">
<h2>{{author}}</h2>
<p>{{message</p>
<a class="button">Reply</a>
{{#each replies}}
{{> reply}}
{{/each}}
</div>
</template>
You'll need a replies helper for the reply template that gets the replies to that reply.
So I'm building my first app with meteor, and I feel like I'm repeating myself with my templates more than I should be.
I have multiple parent views, an example of which is the user contacts view, and the add group members view. (simplified examples below.)
<template name="GroupMembers">
{{#each contacts}}
{{> contact }}
{{/each}}
</template>
<template name="contacts">
{{#each contacts}}
{{> contact }}
{{/each}}
</template>
<template name="contact">
//... single contact template stuff
</template>
When the contact is displayed in the contacts list, I want to display a remove from contacts link in the single contact template, but in the group members list I'd like an 'add to group' link in its place. I know I could probably achieve this with either session variables or by invoking the iron-router controller obj, but I'd like to know if there is a simple way to do this in the template helper(s). Or put another way can these template partials become context aware?
Any help would be great.
Thanks.
I would solve it this way:
<template name="GroupMembers">
{{#each contacts}}
{{> contact groupMembers=true}}
{{/each}}
</template>
<template name="contacts">
{{#each contacts}}
{{> contact }}
{{/each}}
</template>
<template name="contact">
<p>
{{#if groupMembers}}
{{../name}}
<button>add to group</button>
{{else}}
{{name}}
<button>delete</button>
{{/if}}
</p>
</template>

I have three simple Templates in Meteor, and a Collection on the server with any combination of their names. I want to be able to render these templates dynamically based on which of their names are in the Collection.
Currently I am trying to accomplish this by using the client to subscribe to the Collection, and access the names through a template function. Unfortunately, if I try to run ">" on the names, Meteor attempts to render the variable name instead of the Template pointed to by its value.
So instead of rendering the html in template1, template2, and template3, the output is merely their names on the page: "template1 template2 template3".
Here is the code I've been using, I hope there's a way to solve my issue without having to run Meteor.render manually.
Server js:
TemplatesToRender = new Meteor.Collection("templatesToRender");
TemplatesToRender.insert({templateName: "template3"});
TemplatesToRender.insert({templateName: "template2"});
Client html:
<body>
{{#each templatesToRender}}
{{> templateName}} // meteor trying to render a template
// called "templateName" instead of the
// variable inside templateName.
{{/each}}
</body>
<template name="template1">
<span>Template 1</span>
</template>
<template name="template2">
<span>Template 2</span>
</template>
<template name="template3">
<span>Template 3</span>
</template>
You can make a render helper:
Handlebars.registerHelper('render', function(name, options) {
if (Template[name])
return new Handlebars.SafeString(Template[name]());
});
And use it with
{{render templateName}}
You might want to try this
in your html
<body>
{{> templateToRender}}
</body>
<template name="templateToRender">
{{! use below to detect which template to render}}
{{#if templateName "template1"}}
{{> template1}}
{{/if}}
{{#if templateName "template2"}}
{{> template3}}
{{/if}}
{{#if templateName "template3"}}
{{> template3}}
{{/if}}
</template
<template name="template1">
<p>this is template1</p>
</template>
<template name="template2">
<p>this is template2</p>
</template>
<template name="template3">
<p>this is template3</p>
</template>
in your script
Template.templateToRender.templateName = (which) ->
# if user have a field like templateName you can do things like
tmplName = Meteor.user().templateName
# Session.equals will cause a template render if condition is true.
Session.equals which, tmplName
Meteor 1.0 just came out today, and I just want to update this for 2014 :)
