Pass partials in partials

[MaxLeiter]

Kind of a unique case, but I imagine there's a way to accomplish what I want. I'm currently localizing my program with i18next, and have a template like so:

{{> ../user_name nick=from}}
{{translate 'client.invited.invited'}}
{{#if invitedYou}}
	{{translate 'client.invited.you'}}
{{else}}
	{{> ../user_name nick=invited}}
{{/if}}
{{translate 'client.invited.to'}}
{{{parse channel}}}

In English, the above is perfect. However in other languages, the order may be different.

Thus, something like {{translate 'invited' user={{> ../user_name nick=from}} channel={{parse channel}}}} would be ideal, where I could use options.hash.user to fetch the rendered template.

Is there a way to accomplish this?

With helpers, you can write {{translate channel=(parse channel)}}. But I don't think that works with partials.

I would probably try to write a custom block helper for something of this complexity.

[MaxLeiter]

parse channel worked, but you're correct, the user_name partial did not

@nknapp what about supporting partials in subexpressions? Like {{translate channel=(> my_partial channel)}}

[nknapp]

@xPaw You could create a new issue for that. This one was more a question.
@MaxLeiter one other thing that you could use are partial-blocks.

Edit: replace link to blog post by link to official documentation

[nknapp]

@xPaw but new features are currently on hold, until we have a spec for the handlebars languages

[MaxLeiter]

@nknapp how long until the spec is complete? where can I follow the progress?
