Is there a way in handlebars JS to incorporate logical operators into the standard handlebars.js conditional operator? Something like this:
{{#if section1 || section2}}
.. content
{{/if}}
I know I could write my own helper, but first I'd like to make sure I'm not reinventing the wheel.
This is possible by 'cheating' with a block helper. This probably goes against the Ideology of the people who developed Handlebars.
Handlebars.registerHelper('ifCond', function(v1, v2, options) {
if(v1 === v2) {
return options.fn(this);
}
return options.inverse(this);
});
You can then call the helper in the template like this
{{#ifCond v1 v2}}
{{v1}} is equal to {{v2}}
{{else}}
{{v1}} is not equal to {{v2}}
{{/ifCond}}
