> 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](npmjs.org)

```bash
npm i helper-resolve --save
```

## Usage

```js
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

Register the helper with [assemble] v0.6.x to use with any template engine:

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

**async helper**

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

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

## Run tests
Install dev dependencies:

```bash
npm i -d && npm test
```
