Is it possible to pass an object(or JSON) from express to a specific partial(for use by another contained js app)?

[jiriToman]

Hi, I am using express4.x with hbs as a view engine.
I am trying to register it via helper, but I am not getting any data. Should I be sending it somehow by the express?

This is my code for registering helper.

hbs.registerHelper('purchaseObject', function (context, Options) { return context.fn(jsonEnObject)});

I am just trying to get the data in the desired partial and it returns nothing.

<script>alert({{ jsonEnObject}})</script>

Thank you for any help or directions.

Hi @jiriToman this module is just a wrapper for the handlebars.js project for Express.js . Your question is generically about handlbars, and one I don't know off-hand. I would ask over on the handlbars.js project (https://github.com/handlebars-lang/handlebars.js).

For reference as well, here is the documentation around registerHelper: https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/expressions.html#helpers
