Composable helpers for Ember that enables more declarative templating. These helpers can be _composed_ together to form powerful ideas:
``hbs`
{{#each (map-by "fullName" users) as |fullName|}}
{{/each}}
To install:
Ember 3.13+:
`no-highlight`
ember install ember-composable-helpers
Ember 3.12 and below:

Configuration
If you don't need all the helpers, you can specify which to include or remove from your build using only
or except within your ember-cli-build.js:`js
module.exports = function(defaults) {
var app = new EmberApp(defaults, {
'ember-composable-helpers': {
only: ['inc', 'dec', 'pipe'],
except: ['filter-by']
}
});
`Both
and except can be safely used together (the addon computes the diff), although it's best if you only use one for your own sanity.`js
except: ['pipe'] // imports all helpers except pipe
only: ['pipe'] // imports only
Argument ordering
This addon is built with _composability_ in mind, and in order to faciliate that,
the ordering of arguments is somewhat different then you might be used to.
For all non-unary helpers, the subject of the helper function will always be the last argument.
This way the arguments are better readable if you compose together multiple helpers:
hbs
{{take 5 (sort-by "lastName" "firstName" (filter-by "active" array))}}
`For action helpers, this will mean better currying semantics:
hbs

####
Pipes the return values of actions in a sequence of actions. This is useful to compose a pipeline of actions, so each action can do only one thing.hbs
`The
helper is Promise-aware, meaning that if any action in the pipeline returns a Promise, its return value will be piped into the next action. If the Promise rejects, the rest of the pipeline will be aborted.The
pipe helper can also be used directly as a closure action (using pipe-action) when being passed into a Component, which provides an elegant syntax for composing actions:`hbs
{{foo-bar
addAndSquare=(pipe-action (action "add") (action "square"))
multiplyAndSquare=(pipe-action (action "multiply") (action "square"))
}}
`hbs
{{! foo-bar/template.hbs }}
`####
Calls the given function with argumentshbs
{{#each (call (fn this.callMeWith @daysInMonth) as |week|}}
{{#each week as |day|}}
{{day}}
{{/each}}
{{/each}}
`
####
Calls an action as a template helper.hbs
The square of 4 is {{compute (action "square") 4}}
`####
Toggles a boolean value.hbs
` can also be used directly as a closure action using toggle-action:`hbs
{{foo-bar
toggleIsExpanded=(toggle-action "isExpanded" this)
toggleIsSelected=(toggle-action "isSelected" this)
}}
`hbs
{{! foo-bar/template.hbs }}
` also accepts optional values to rotate through:`hbs
`####
Returns an empty function.
hbs
Some content
`####
Allows for the passed in action to not exist.
hbs
`####
Like
, this helper runs actions in a sequence (from left-to-right). The
difference is that this helper passes the original arguments to each action, not
the result of the previous action in the sequence.If one of the actions in the sequence returns a promise, then it will wait for
that promise to resolve before calling the next action in the sequence. If a
promise is rejected it will stop the sequence and no further actions will be
called.

####
Maps a callback on an array.hbs
{{#each (map (action "getName") users) as |fullName|}}
{{fullName}}
{{/each}}
`####
Maps an array on a property.hbs
{{#each (map-by "fullName" users) as |fullName|}}
{{fullName}}
{{/each}}
`####
Sort an array by given properties.hbs
{{#each (sort-by "lastName" "firstName" users) as |user|}}
{{user.lastName}}, {{user.firstName}}
{{/each}}
`You can append
to properties to sort in reverse order.`hbs
{{#each (sort-by "age:desc" users) as |user|}}
{{user.firstName}} {{user.lastName}} ({{user.age}})
{{/each}}
`You can also pass a method as the first argument:
hbs
{{#each (sort-by (action "mySortAction") users) as |user|}}
{{user.firstName}} {{user.lastName}} ({{user.age}})
{{/each}}
`
####
Filters an array by a callback.hbs
{{#each (filter (action "isActive") users) as |user|}}
{{user.name}} is active!
{{/each}}
`####
Filters an array by a property.hbs
{{#each (filter-by "isActive" true users) as |user|}}
{{user.name}} is active!
{{/each}}
`If you omit the second argument it will test if the property is truthy.
hbs
{{#each (filter-by "address" users) as |user|}}
{{user.name}} has an address specified!
{{/each}}
`You can also pass an action as second argument:
hbs
{{#each (filter-by "age" (action "olderThan" 18) users) as |user|}}
{{user.name}} is older than eighteen!
{{/each}}
`####
The inverse of filter by.hbs
{{#each (reject-by "isActive" true users) as |user|}}
{{user.name}} is not active!
{{/each}}
`If you omit the third argument it will test if the property is falsey.
hbs
{{#each (reject-by "address" users) as |user|}}
{{user.name}} does not have an address specified!
{{/each}}
`You can also pass an action as third argument:
hbs
{{#each (reject-by "age" (action "youngerThan" 18) users) as |user|}}
{{user.name}} is older than eighteen!
{{/each}}
`####
Returns the first entry matching the given value.hbs
{{#with (find-by 'name' lookupName people) as |person|}}
{{#if person}}
{{#link-to 'person' person}}
Click here to see {{person.name}}'s details
{{/link-to}}
{{/if}}
{{/with}}
`####
Creates an array of unique values that are included in all given arrays.hbs
Matching skills
{{#each (intersect desiredSkills currentSkills) as |skill|}}
{{skill.name}}
{{/each}}
`####
Invokes a method on an object, or on each object of an array.hbs
`####
Joins arrays to create an array of unique values. When applied to a single array, has the same behavior as
.`hbs
{{#each (union cartA cartB cartC) as |cartItem|}}
{{cartItem.price}} x {{cartItem.quantity}} for {{cartItem.name}}
{{/each}}
`####
Returns the first entries of a given array.`hbs
Top 3:
{{#each (take 3 contestants) as |contestant|}}
{{contestant.rank}}. {{contestant.name}}
{{/each}}
`####
Returns an array with the first entries omitted.`hbs
Other contestants:
{{#each (drop 3 contestants) as |contestant|}}
{{contestant.rank}}. {{contestant.name}}
{{/each}}
`####
Reduce an array to a value.hbs
{{reduce (action "sum") 0 (array 1 2 3)}}
`The last argument is initial value. If you omit it, undefined will be used.
####
Repeats times. This can be useful for making an n-length arbitrary list for iterating upon (you can think of this form as a times helper, a la Ruby's 5.times { ... }):`hbs
{{#each (repeat 3) as |empty|}}
I will be rendered 3 times
{{/each}}
`You can also give it a value to repeat:
hbs
{{#each (repeat 3 "Adam") as |name|}}
{{name}}
{{/each}}
`####
Reverses the order of the array.hbs
{{#each (reverse friends) as |friend|}}
If {{friend}} was first, they are now last.
{{/each}}
`####
Generates a range of numbers between a and max value.`hbs
{{#each (range 10 20) as |number|}}
{{! number will go from 10 to 19}}
{{/each}}
`It can also be set to
:`hbs
{{#each (range 10 20 true) as |number|}}
{{! number will go from 10 to 20}}
{{/each}}
`And works with a negative range:
hbs
{{#each (range 20 10) as |number|}}
{{! number will go from 20 to 11}}
{{/each}}
`####
Joins the given array with an optional separator into a string.hbs
{{join ', ' categories}}
`####
Removes blank items from an array.hbs
{{#each (compact arrayWithBlanks) as |notBlank|}}
{{notBlank}} is most definitely not blank!
{{/each}}
`####
:warning: is deprecated. Use includes instead.Checks if a given value or sub-array is contained within an array.
`hbs
{{contains selectedItem items}}
{{contains 1234 items}}
{{contains "First" (w "First Second Third") }}
{{contains (w "First Second") (w "First Second Third")}}
`####
Checks if a given value or sub-array is included within an array.hbs
{{includes selectedItem items}}
{{includes 1234 items}}
{{includes "First" (w "First Second Third") }}
{{includes (w "First Second") (w "First Second Third")}}
`####
Appends the given arrays and/or values into a single flat array.hbs
{{#each (append catNames dogName) as |petName|}}
{{petName}}
{{/each}}
`####

{{/each}}
{{/each}}
`####
Returns the given array without the given item(s).hbs
{{#each (without selectedItem items) as |remainingItem|}}
{{remainingItem.name}}
{{/each}}
`####
Shuffles an array with a randomizer function, or with as a default. Your randomizer function should return a number between 0 and 1.`hbs
{{#each (shuffle array) as |value|}}
{{value}}
{{/each}}
`hbs
{{#each (shuffle (action "myRandomizer") array) as |value|}}

`####
Returns the next element in the array given the current element. Note: Accepts an optional boolean
parameter, , to flag whether a deep equal comparison should be performed.`hbs
`####
Checks if the array has an element after the given element. Note: Accepts an optional boolean
parameter, , to flag whether a deep equal comparison should be performed.`hbs
{{#if (has-next page useDeepEqual pages)}}

####
Returns an array of a given object's own enumerable string-keyed property pairs`hbs
{{#each (entries object) as |entry|}}
{{get entry 0}}:{{get entry 1}}
{{/each}}
`You can pair it with other array helpers too. For example
hbs
{{#each (sort-by myOwnSortByFunction (entries myObject)) as |entry|}}
{{get entry 0}}
{{/each}});``
####
Converts a two-dimensional array of pairs into an Object`hbs
{{#each-in (from-entries entries) as |key value|}}
{{key}}:{{value}}
{{/each}}
`You can pair it with other array helpers too. For example, to copy only
