Template Helpers

[mookiejones]

Is there a proper way to use template helpers?

I am using
img.img-circle(alt="image" src="#{profileInfo 'photo'}" href="/profiles/#{_id}" )

but in order to use it i need to use
img.img-circle(alt="image" src="{{profileInfo 'photo'}}" href="/profiles/#{_id}" )

I want to mention that i did this because
img.img-circle(alt="image" src="#{profile.photo}" href="/profiles/#{_id}" )
shows up as missing a space

I also noticed today that the #{} syntax doesn't work with a helper that takes a parameter. In other words, #{helperFunction parameter} doesn't work, but {{helperFunction parameter}} does.

I've modified a fork of this package to support passing arguments to helpers, together with a few other useful features. The fork has been released as dalgard:jade.

I will keep the new package in sync with the original, should there be any updates, and generally continue maintenance until, hopefully, the two packages can be merged.
