Helper cannot return Array or Object

[toksea]

Hi! It seems that return value of custom helpers will force cast to string.

e.g.

Handlebars.registerHelper('testArray',function(object) {
    return [1,2,3];
});

{{#testArray}}loop{{/testArray}}

// will output
1,2,3

Can I return Array or Object from helpers?

You can use your helper as argument to the {{#each}}-helper in order to iterate the array. Try this template:

{{#each (testArray)}}
    {{.}}.loop
{{/each}}
