Multi-Line Array Literal

Question

In my Jade template, I'm trying to make an array like so:

- var myArray = [
    'one',
    'two',
    'three'
]

But it doesn't compile. Anyone know why? Being able to have a multi-line array that I can use as a mixin argument would make my code much less verbose.

Answer 1

- myArray = ['one']
- myArray.push('two')
- myArray.push('three')

If you wanna.

Answer 2

You can use block code:

-
    var myArray = [
        "one",
        "two",
        "three"
    ]

each row, index in myArray

You can't do that :( https://github.com/visionmedia/jade/pull/405

Answer 4

divesario is right is should look like this:

- var myArray = [
-    'one',
-    'two',
-    'three'
- ]

Answer 5

You can, but each line must be prefixed by a '-' - see https://github.com/visionmedia/jade/issues/502
