dot.js working with array

Question

I have a problem working with dot when I have template like this

{{=it.data[0].visitors}}

so this doesn't work

var data = [{
  visitors: 10
}];

var tempFn = doT.template("<h1>Here is a sample template {{=it.data[0].visitors}}</h1>");

var resultText = tempFn(data[0]);

if you change last line with `var resultText = tempFn(data);` ? — Jayffe, Jul 26 '18 at 07:00

You need to name what you insert as template vars :

http://jsfiddle.net/0ds9rfk1/

var tempFn = doT.template("<h1>Here is a sample template {{=it.data.visitors}}</h1>");
var resultText = tempFn({data:data[0]});

or

var tempFn = doT.template("<h1>Here is a sample template {{=it.data[0].visitors}}</h1>");
var resultText = tempFn({data});

so for your post this last line should work `var resultText = tempFn({data});` – Jayffe Jul 26 '18 at 07:10
