Including partials dynamically

Hi,

I have been looking for a simple way to dynamically render partials based on a value in an {{#each ...}} loop.

For example:

{{#each modules}}
    {{> @exphbs.partials[ this.name ] }}
{{/each}}

This would allow me to load partials based on data rather than putting a lot of logic in the template.

Looking at the unit tests the subexpression needs to be a helper. Something like this:

var app = express();
app.set('view engine', 'hbs');
app.engine('hbs', exphbs({
    helpers: {
        partial: function (name) {
            return name;
        }
    }
}));

{{#each modules}}
    {{> (partial this.name) }}
{{/each}}

If you’re using the handlebar-helpers library you can use a standard string function such as lowercase. It might not do anything but it returns a function and fixes this niggle.

{{> (lowercase this.url)}}
