handlebars-ramda-helpers


Provide powerful data processing capabilities for handlebars, by adding the ramda function as helpers.

Usage

Adding ``r__` before the ramda function name is the handlebars helpers name.
Let see an example:

`typescript
import * as Handlebars from 'handlebars'
import * as HandlebarsRamdaHelpers from 'handlebars-ramda-helpers'

// register helpers before compile
HandlebarsRamdaHelpers.register(Handlebars)


const view = {
books: [
{ type: 'computer', name: 'C Primer Plus', price: 10 },
{ type: 'computer', name: 'An Introduction to Programming in Go', price: 20 },
{ type: 'computer', name: 'Javascript the definitive guide', price: 100 },
{ type: 'comic', name: 'One Piece', price: 100 },
]
}

const template =
I have a lot of books:

{{~r__define 'divide' (r__compose (r__join '') (r__repeat '-'))}}

{{r__padRight 40 ' ' 'bookName'}} | bookPrice
{{divide 40}} | {{divide 10}}
{{#each books}}
{{r__padRight 40 ' ' name}} | {{r__padRight 10 ' ' price}}
{{/each}}

{{r__define 'priceList' (r__pluck 'price' books)}}
The total value of these books is approx {{r__sum priceList}}.

I have {{r__count (r__propEq 'type' 'comic') books}} comic books and {{r__count (r__propEq 'type' 'computer') books}} computer books.


Handlebars.compile(template)(view)
`

The Output:

`text
I have a lot of books:

bookName | bookPrice
---------------------------------------- | ----------
C Primer Plus | 10
An Introduction to Programming in Go | 20
Javascript the definitive guide | 100
One Piece | 100


The total value of these books is approx 230.

I have 1 comic books and 3 computer books.

In order to facilitate the use of ramda in handlebars, some extension functions have been added.

#### Helpers

name | description
:-----------------|:---------------------------
r__define | Define a variable on context {{r__define "variableName" "variableValue"}}
r__Array | Create an array {{r__Array "0" "1" "2"}}
r__Object | Create an object {{r__Object "key1"="value1" "key2"="value2"}}
r__isObject | R.is(Object)
r__isNumber | R.is(Number)
r__isString | R.is(String)
r__isArray | R.is(Array)
r__isFunction | R.is(Function)
r__isBoolean | R.is(Boolean)
r__isTrue | R.identical(R.T())
r__isFalse | R.identical(R.F())
r__allIs | R.useWith(R.all, [R.is, R.identity])
r__allIsObject | R.all(R.is(Object))
r__allIsNumber | R.all(R.is(Number))
r__allIsString | R.all(R.is(String))
r__allIsArray | R.all(R.is(Array))
r__allIsFunction | R.all(R.is(Function))
r__allIsBoolean | R.all(R.is(Boolean))
r__allIsTrue | R.all(R.identical(R.T()))
r__allIsFalse | R.all(R.identical(R.F()))
r__padLeft | R.curry((fillString, maxLength, str) => String(str).padStart(maxLength, fillString))
r__padRight | R.curry((fillString, maxLength, str) => String(str).padEnd(maxLength, fillString))
r__notEquals | R.complement(R.equals)
r__pathNotEq | R.complement(R.pathEq)
r__propNotEq | R.complement(R.propEq)

> If a function was defined by {{r__define "fn" (r__equals "example")}},
> the fn should be used like an helper, rather than a variable.
>
> Error: {{r__all fn (r__Array "example" "example")}}
>
> Correct:{{r__all (fn) (r__Array "example" "example")}}

#### Block Helpers

name | description
:-----------------|:---------------------------
r__define | Define a variable on context {{#r__define "variableName"}}"variableValue"{{/r__define}}`
r__toUpper | R.toUpper
r__toLower | R.toLower
r__trim | R.trim

> All block helpers can use as non-block helper
