{{tweet}} and {{follow}}

Twitter handlebars helpers, for adding {{tweet}} and {{follow}} buttons to your web projects.

Installation

Use npm to install the package: npm i handlebars-helper-twitter.

Register the helper

In your project's Gruntfile, to register the helper add handlebars-helper-twitter to the helpers property in the Assemble task or target options:

grunt.initConfig({
  assemble: {
    options: {
      // the 'handlebars-helper-twitter' npm module must also be listed in
      // devDependencies for assemble to automatically resolve the helper
      helpers: ['handlebars-helper-twitter', 'foo/*.js']
    },
    files: {
      'dist/': ['src/templates/*.hbs']
    }
  }
});

Usage

Now that the helper is registered, you may begin using it in your templates.
