Description

Dynamically render an array of Blaze templates from a reactive data source. Supports nested looping and mapping reactive variables to child templates.

Demo

Setup

meteor add meatwallace:looper

Usage

Create an array containing valid data objects

structure = [{
  type: 'templateName',
  data: {
    dataToPass: 'toTheTemplate'
    moreData: 'toSend'
  }
},
{
  type: 'looper', // nested loop
  data: {
    variables: [{ // array of ReactiveVar's to make
      name: 'reactiveVar', // name of ReactiveVar
      value: 'A reactive variable' // default value
    }],
    components: [{
      type: 'templateName',
      data: {
        dependencies: [{ // array of variables we want from our parent template
          name: 'templateVar' // name of variable on this template
          value: 'reactiveVar' // name of ReactiveVar we want
        }]
      }
    }, {
      type: 'templateName',
      data: {
        templateVar: 'A non reactive variable'
      }
    }
  }
}]

Call our template with our data (from a helper)

<template name="example">
  {{>looper structure}}
</template>

Roadmap

• Rewrite with ES6
• Implement primary loop to take initial data object
• Tests w/ CI
