{{#and a b }}

If both a and b are true, the block is rendered. Otherwise, the inverse is rendered.

Usage :

<!-- great: true, magnifice: true -->
{{#and great magnifice }}
A
{{else}}
B
{{/and}}

Result : A

{{#compare a op b }}

Compares a and b with an operator. If the result is true, the block is rendered. Otherwise, the inverse is rendered.

The operator must be a string (enclose in strings). The conventional operators are supported : >, >=, ==, ===, !=, !==, <=, <. typeof is also supported, where a is checked to be the typeof b.

Usage :

{{#compare 2 != 2}}
A
{{else}}
B
{{/compare}}

Result : B

{{#contains array value }}

Checks if an array contains a value. If it does, the block is rendered. Otherwise, the inverse is rendered.

Usage :

{{#contains ['a','b','c'] "d" }}
A
{{else}}
B
{{/contains}}

Result : B

{{ default value defaultValue }}

Checks if a value is undefined. If it is, the defaultValue is rendered — otherwise, the value is.

Usage : {{ default apple "Whoops, I forgot to define something" }}

Result : Whoops, I forgot to define something

{{#eq a b }}

Usage :

{{#eq 2 2}}
A
{{else}}
