Jammit Handlebar Template funciton

gistfile1.js

Handlebars.template = function(templateString) {
  return function () {
    if (arguments.length < 1) {
      // With no arguments, return the raw template -- useful for rendering
      // partials.
      return templateString;
    } else {
      Handlebars.templates = Handlebars.templates || {}
      Handlebars.templates[templateString] = Handlebars.templates[templateString] || Handlebars.compile(templateString);
      return Handlebars.templates[templateString](arguments[0], arguments[1]);
    }
  };
};

I forked this because it did not work. I changed the Handlebar references to Handlebars and presto. I hope someone else can use this info.

I wish I noticed your fork earlier... could've save me some time getting to the same solutions... :-)
Thanks!

Glad it was useful!

Thanks for pointing out my syntax error - I fixed the original just in case anyone else runs across it.

hmm, where does one put this?

You can put it anyplace after the handlebars script tags and before you actually need a template.

what version of handlebars are you running this against?

this actually seems to do the trick with the latest version of handlebars: template_function: Handlebars.compile
