Assign directly an object to a template in meteor

Is there a way to directly assign an object to a template and let it show his properties ?

A thing like this

//Object returned is {totalResults:34,firstName="hoyo"}
Template.myTemplate = function(){
    return Session.get("anObject");
};

on this template :

<template name="myTemplate">
    <h3>Info results : {{totalResults}}</h3>
        <span>Other things : {{firstName}}</span>
</template>

With thanks

Solution

  • You can use dot notation. But you still need to make a Template helper within the template. Template.mytemplate is reserved for the actual template instance.

    Your JS

    Template.myTemplate.data = function(){
    return Session.get("anObject");
};

    Your HTML

    <template name="myTemplate">
    <h3>Info results : {{data.totalResults}}</h3>
        <span>Other things : {{data.firstName}}</span>
</template>
