How can use underscorejs in view ?

[daveliu]

in express , it like this

app.locals._ = require("underscore");  

then can use _. in views , how can do it in compound?

You still can use expressjs way, but i wouldn't recommend you to use underscore in views. Anyway, this is a code that will add _ to both controller and views:

    app.locals._ = compound.controllerExtensions._ =

require('underscore');

put this line to config/environment.js

Here is my config/environment.js

module.exports = function (compound) {

    var express = require('express');
    var app = compound.app;
    var _ = require('underscore');

    require('./mongoose').init(compound);    

    app.locals._ = compound.controllerExtensions._ = require('underscore');

    app.configure(function(){
        app.use(express.static(app.root + '/public', { maxAge: 86400000 }));
        app.set('jsDirectory', '/javascripts/');
        app.set('cssDirectory', '/stylesheets/');
        app.set('cssEngine', 'stylus');

        app.set('view engine', 'jade')

        compound.loadConfigs(__dirname);
        app.use(express.bodyParser());
        app.use(express.cookieParser('secret'));
        app.use(express.session({secret: 'secret'}));
        app.use(express.methodOverride());
        app.use(app.router);



    });

};
