mustache

My object looks like this: ['foo','bar','baz'] And I want to use a mustache template to produce from it something like this: "<ul><li>foo</li><li>bar</li><li>baz</li></ul>" But how? Do I really have to munge it into something like this first? {list:['foo','bar','baz']} You can do it like this... Mustache.render('<ul>{{#.}}<li>{{.}}</li>{{/.}}</ul>', ['foo','bar','baz']); It also works for things like this... var obj = [{name: 'foo'}, {name: 'bar'}]; var tmp = '<ul>{{#.}}<li>{{name}}</li>{{/.}}</ul>'; Mustache.render(tmp, obj); Andy Hull I had the same problem this morning and after a little

How does one use a literal "{{" in a Mustache template? On a side note, if I'm using custom tags, like <% and %> , is there a way to write "<%"? Theoretically, I could use different tags, but I have too much code written using {{ and }} to change it all. Just change the delimiters temporarily: {{=<% %>=}} {{Look at the curlies!}} <%={{ }}=%> Assuming you are outputting HTML you could use an HTML entity to avoid it (mustache doesn't have any way to escape the opening tag built in). So to output {{ you would write {{ . To output <% you would write <% . You can use {{ by itself quite easily. If

I have tried to write a mustache parser with the excellent Boost.XPressive from the brilliant Eric Niebler . But since this is my first parser I am not familiar with the "normal" approach and lingo of compiler writers and feel a bit lost after a few days of trial&error. So I come here and hope someone can tell me the foolishness of my n00bish ways ;) This is the HTML code with the mustache templates that I want to extract ( http://mustache.github.io/ ): Now <bold>is the {{#time}}gugus {{zeit}} oder nicht{{/time}} <i>for all good men</i> to come to the {007} aid of their</bold> {{country}}.

This is what I'd like to do in Mustache.js but not seeing how with the documentation. var view = {items:['Mercury','Venus','Earth','Mars']}; var template = "<ul> {{#items}}<li>{{i}} - {{.}}</li>{{/items}} </ul>"; var html = Mustache.to_html(template,view); Desired output: <ul> <li>0 - Mercury</li> <li>1 - Venus</li> <li>2 - Earth</li> <li>3 - Mars</li> </ul> An alternative solution, without fooling around with Mustache.js Instead of fooling around with mustache you might as well use a <ol></ol> instead of <ul></ul> , that will prefix each item with index+1 . If you'd like you can use css to

Is it possible to call a function with arguments with Mustache.js {{somefunction(somevalue)}} thank you Check out the section on Lambdas at http://mustache.github.com/mustache.5.html Mustache template block: {{#someFunction}}someValue{{/someFunction}} Function block: someFunction : function () { return function(val, render) { return "I passed in this value: " + render(val); }; } Output: I passed in this value: someValue If you want the script contents to be executed after the markup is inserted nito the dom you should use some library that will do the same like jquery. Try this out here: http:

I'm trying to template a template, like below: {{{ { "name" : "{{name}}", "description" : "{{description}}" } }}} {{{debug this}}} <h1>{{name}}</h1> Where I want to triple brackets to stay, but double brackets to be replaced with the JSON passed in. Anyone know the best way to do this without writing post-process JS code, and if not, is there a good nodeJS template engine for this type of scenario? You can switch delimiters to something that won't conflict with the triple mustaches, like erb-style tags: {{=<% %>=}} {{{ { "name": "<% name %>", "description": "<% description %>" } }}} {{{debug

I just updated jQuery from 1.8.3 to 1.9, and it started crashing all of a sudden. This is my template: <script type="text/template" id="modal_template"> <div>hello</div> </script> This is how I read it: modal_template_html = $("#modal_template").html(); This is how I transform it into jQuery object (I need to use jQuery methods on it): template = $(modal_template_html); ... and jQuery crashes! Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: <div>hello</div> slice.call( docElem.childNodes, 0 )[0].nodeType; jquery-1.9.0.js (line 3811) However, if I declare template as a plain text variable, it
