Server side handlebars support for Meteor
This package adds support for server side Handlebars in Meteor. It's primarily intended as a stop gap for server side email html until Meteor releases server side rendering support.
Install the package with Meteorite
> meteor add cmather:handlebars-server
Install the package without Meteorite in your project folder
> cd my-project
> git init
> mkdir packages
> git submodule add https://github.com/EventedMind/meteor-handlebars-server.git packages/handlebars-server
Usage
Any files with a .handlebars extension will be available as functions under the
Handlebars.templates namespace.
The templates need to be accesible to the server (i.e. put them inside your /server directory).
The handlebars files should just be regular html. Don't wrap them in Meteor template tag.
Example:
my-template.handlebars
hello, {{name}}
my-server-code.js
Handlebars.templates['my-template']({name: 'Chris'});
// > hello, Chris
Helpers
You can define helpers on the server via OriginalHandlebars.registerHelper method.
