How can I get the index of an array in a Meteor template each loop?

问题

Say I have an object, someObject:

{
  foo: "apple",
  myArray: ["abc", "def"]
}

And a template helper that looks like this (and works fine):

getArray: function(){
  var self = this;
  self.myArray = self.myArray || [];    
  return self.myArray;
}

How should I construct the html to get the array index?

I've tried:

<template name="someObject"> // takes someObject as data
  {{#each getArray}}
    <div class="item" data-value="{{WHAT GOES HERE?}}">{{this}}</div>
  {{/each}}
</template>

In which case this successfully returns "abc" and "def". Which is good. But how can I get the index of the array to put into the attribute data-value?

I've tried this.index directly but it's undefined. I also tried using a helper:

<template name="someObject"> // takes someObject as data
  {{#each getArray}}
    <div class="item" data-value="{{getindex}}">{{this}}</div>
  {{/each}}
</template>

but in this helper getIndex when I console.log out this I see:

String {0: "a", 1: "b", 2: "c", length: 3}
String {0: "d", 1: "e", 2: "f", length: 3}

Is it possible to get the index?

回答1:

meteor >= 1.2

Spacebars gained a lot of functionality in 1.2, including a native @index. Helpers are no longer needed to solve this problem - you can simply do this:

{{#each getArray}}
  <div class="item" data-value="{{@index}}">{{this}}</div>
{{/each}}

or, if you want to use the index inside a helper:

{{#each getArray}}
  <div class="item" data-value="{{someHelper @index}}">{{this}}</div>
{{/each}}

meteor < 1.2

Sometime in the future, spacebars may offer the ability to determine the index directly in the template. However, as of this writing, the only way to get the index is to modify the result returned by the helper. For example you could have getArray return an array of objects which contain a value and an index, like this:

getArray: function() {
  var self = this;
  self.myArray = self.myArray || [];
  return _.map(self.myArray, function(value, index){
    return {value: value, index: index};
  });
}

And the template could use the index like this:

<template name="someObject">
  {{#each getArray}}
    <div class="item" data-value="{{index}}">{{value}}</div>
  {{/each}}
</template>

Also see this answer for a similar example with cursors.

It's worth mentioning that you probably don't need to store the index in the DOM itself via data-value, unless it's needed by an external plugin. As you can see in the example below, each item has a context with an index value. For more information, see this blog post.

Template.someObject.events({
  'click .item': function() {
    console.log(this.index);
  }
});

You can make this a reusable helper, too. It's handy to have:

JS:

UI.registerHelper('addIndex', function (all) {
    return _.map(all, function(val, index) {
        return {index: index, value: val};
    });
});

HTML:

{{#each addIndex somearray}}
<div>
   {{index}}: {{value}}
</div>
{{/each}}

This change is coming and you will be able to do {{@index}}. When meteor supports the most recent version of handlebars.

回答4:

You can change getArray to return an array of tupples and store the index there.

Here is an example of how you can just add index to the object and as long as you didnt have a key named index before it shouldnt obstruct anything this way works only with arrays of objects. Now if you have a array of values you should use Christan Fritz answer

UI.registerHelper("withIndex", function(obj) {
  obj = obj || [];
  _.each(obj, function (object, index) {
    obj[index].index = index;
  });
  return obj;
});

{#each withIndex fields}}
   <div class="form-group field" data-index="{{index}}">
      <label for="{{name}}">{{title}}</label> 
    </div>
{{/each}}

You can do it with underscore too, assuming that you have subscribed your template to array of objects

Template.yourTemplate.helpers({
  objectsWithIndex: function() {
    _.map(this.objects, function(value, key) {
      return _.extend(value, {
        index: key
      });
    });
    return this.objects;
  }
});

and in your html...

<template name="someObject">
  {{#each objectsWithIndex}}
    <div class="item" data-value="{{index}}">{{value}}</div>
  {{/each}}
</template>
