Handlebarsjs check if a string is equal to a value

Question

Is it possible in Handlebars to check if a string is equal to another value without registering a helper? I can\'t seem to find anything relevant to this in the Handlebars r

Answer 1

Node.js add this in server.js

const isEqual = function(a, b, opts) {
  if (a == b) {
    return opts.fn(this) 
  } else { 
    return opts.inverse(this) 
  } 
}

var hbs = require('hbs');
hbs.registerHelper('if_eq', isEqual);
