[Feature Request]: conditioned output as a variable not just a message(string)

[seddik11]

Hello, i want to test if a variable is null before getting one of its properties..i tried to do this {d.val:isEmpty("value is null"): d.val.id} but didn't work [Error: Formatter "d.val.id" does not exist. Do you mean "div"?] how can i manage to do this and if it is not possible we would like to see this feature in the future release..

Hello @seddik11, thank you for writing to us!
Unfortunately it is not possible to check if a variable is defined to print it. For now, you can only insert static string into arguments as explained in the documentation.
{d.myvariable:ifEqual(2, “two"):print(“unknown”)}.
This is closely related to the feature request pass variables into formatters arguments and conditional sections.

Now you can pass variables into formatters, check out the update: #65 (comment)
