Inject new helpers in handlebars.

How to install?

npm install

Check everything is working with npm test.

How to use it

var hbs = require('anyfetch-handlebars');
hbs.loadAnyfetchHelpers(/* Your context */);

Example

var hbs = require('anyfetch-handlebars');

// An example of context
var rawDocument = {
  data: {
    text: 'Test of document'
  },
  metadata: {
    path: '/test/document.txt'
  },
  highlight: {}
};

hbs.loadAnyfetchHelpers(rawDocument);

var compiled = hbs.compile("{ \
  \"title\": \
    {{#if metadata.title}} \
      \"{{attr 'title'}}\" \
    {{else}} \
      {{#if metadata.path}} \
        \"{{extractFilename metadata.path}}\" \
      {{else}} \
        \"Unknown document: no path.\" \
      {{/if}} \
    {{/if~}}, \
  \"path\": \"{{attr 'path'}}\", \
  \"snippet\": \"{{#trim .}}{{shortAttr 'text'}}{{/trim}}\" \
}");

var json = compiled(rawDocument);

// Beautify JSON
json = JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(json), null, 4);

This results in:

{
  "title": "document",
  "path": "/test/document.txt",
  "snippet": "Test of document"
}
