Usage

Register

Get all helpers

var handlebarsContext = HandlebarsDotNet.Handlebars.Create();
HandlebarsHelpers.Register(handlebarsContext);

Get a specific helper

var handlebarsContext = HandlebarsDotNet.Handlebars.Create();
HandlebarsHelpers.Register(handlebarsContext, Category.String);

Get multiple helpers

var handlebarsContext = HandlebarsDotNet.Handlebars.Create();
HandlebarsHelpers.Register(handlebarsContext, Category.Math, Category.String);

Using

With a category prefix (default)

By default you can use the helpers by using a prefix from the category:

{{[String.Append] "foobar" "bar"}}

With an additional custom prefix

If you would like to use the helpers with a custom prefix, you need to register the helpers using this code:

HandlebarsHelpers.Register(handlebarsContext, options => { Prefix = "custom"; });

Now you can only access the helpers by using the custom prefix, category prefix and the name like:

{{[custom.String.Append] "foobar" "bar"}}

With a custom prefix separator character

By default the dot (.) character is used, use the code below to use a different value:

HandlebarsHelpers.Register(handlebarsContext, options => { PrefixSeparator = "-"; });

Now you can only access the helpers by using the - separator like this:

{{[String-Append] "foobar" "bar"}}

Without a prefix

If you would like to use the helpers without a prefix, so just by name, use this code:

HandlebarsHelpers.Register(handlebarsContext, options => { UseCategoryPrefix = false; });

Now you can use it like:

{{String-Append "foobar" "bar"}}

Now you can access the helpers by just using the name like:

{{Append "foobar" "bar"}}
