Release Notes

Development

• #537 - Add CommonJS and AMD loader support (@spikebrehm)
• #544 - Push travis builds to build server (@fivetanley)

Compatibility notes:

• The client-code has been wrapped in a hybrid AMD/CommonJS loader. This may cause unexpected issues with different build/loading mechanisms so this change is being made early in the 1.1 lifecycle.

Commits

v1.0.12 / 1.0.0 - May 31 2013

• #515 - Add node require extensions support (@jjclark1982)
• #517 - Fix amd precompiler output with directories (@blessenm)
• #433 - Add support for unicode ids
• #469 - Add support for ? in ids
• #534 - Protect from object prototype modifications
• #519 - Fix partials with . name (@jamesgorrie)
• #519 - Allow ID or strings in partial names
• #437 - Require matching brace counts in escaped expressions
• Merge passed partials and helpers with global namespace values
• Add support for complex ids in @data references
• Docs updates

Compatibility notes:

• The parser is now stricter on {{{, requiring that the end token be }}}. Templates that do not follow this convention should add the additional brace value.
• Code that relies on global the namespace being muted when custom helpers or partials are passed will need to explicitly pass an undefined value for any helpers that should not be available.
• The compiler version has changed. Precompiled templates with 1.0.12 or higher must use the 1.0.0 or higher runtime.

Prior Versions

When upgrading from the Handlebars 0.9 series, be aware that the signature for passing custom helpers or partials to templates has changed.

Instead of:

template(context, helpers, partials, [data])

Use:

template(context, {helpers: helpers, partials: partials, data: data})
