javascript templating conflict wiht BC.Next

Muhammed Jenos Oct 19, 2014 4:12 AM

After I enable liquid rendering the handlebars template we use to render certain external json data to the page gets broken.

For eg:

//iterating elements here

</script>

renders as :

//iterating elements here

</script>

with the root missing after #each and thus rendering no data and giving a plugin error.

Hi Muhammed,

Off the cuff I would say that " {{#each root}}" is conflicting with Liquid. {{}} distinctly denotes liquid markup.

It would appear there is a conflict here. I'm not sure what this means regarding the continued use of handlebars templating engine ?

In essence, Liquid layout is now your template engine. Should you choose to use handlebars, then perhaps you cannot enable Liquid. What happens when Liquid becomes enabled by default? I don't want to go there.

That is my initial assessment.

That is why you have the suppression tags
{%raw%} {{each}} {%endraw%}

Thanks guys for the replies.
I use handbars at various places to show data coming from an external provider.

Liam,
Is that suppression tags handlebars syntax? Like noConflict?

Sorry, my bad. Those are liquid tags to supress the rendering to avoid conflicts..Excellent.
Thanks guys.
