Selecting a Handlebars template based on a data field
AnapproachthatisalsousedwithHTMLsnippetsistousethevalueofadatafieldinthecurrent
recordtodeterminethenameoftheHandlebarstemplatetouse.
Thisisanexample:
let html = ''
let policydata = record.tables.Policy
for (var i=0; i < policydata.length; i++) {
let templateName = 'snippets/' + policydata[i].fields['snippetName'] + '.hbs'
html += Handlebars.render( templateName, policydata[i] )
}
results.replaceWith( html );
