Helper-resolve NPM

helper-resolve

Template helper to resolve the path to a file in node_modules. This is mostly useful during development.

Refactored to return an object, so the results of the helper can be passed to other helpers that require more information.

Install with npm

npm i helper-resolve --save

Usage

var resolve = require('helper-resolve');
var Handlebars = require('handlebars');

handlebars.registerHelper('resolve', function (name, key) {
  return resolve.sync(fp)[typeof key === 'string' ? key : 'main'];
});
handlebars.compile('<script src=\"{{resolve "jquery" "main"}}\"></script>')().
//=> '<script src="node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js"></script>'

handlebars.compile('{{resolve "jquery" "homepage"}}')().
//=> 'http://jquery.com'

Assemble example

var assemble = require('assemble');
assemble.helper('resolve', function (name, key) {
  return resolve.sync(fp)[typeof key === 'string' ? key : 'main'];
});

async helper

assemble.asyncHelper('resolve', function (name, key, cb) {
  if (typeof key === 'function') {
    cb = key;
    key = 'main';
  }

  resolve(name, function (err, res) {
    cb(null, res[key]);
  });
});
