#Handlebars helpers A collection of useful helpers

##_every.js

Iterates through an array and adds CSS helper classes and index indicator

You can pass in two optional options to the helper function:

• group Let's you specify a segment within the dataset
• prefix Let's you prefix all the CSS classes with a "namespace". Use this to avoid style conflicts.

The helper always returns the following properties along with original data:

• _index Index position of iteration. (zero indexed)

• _number Current nummber in iteration. (not zero indexed)

• _total Total length of array. Useful for rendering e.g. amount indicators, like: "3 out of 11".

• _child CSS helper classes indicating the position in list: "odd", "even", "first-child" and "last-child".

And if a "group" option is passed to the helper, these properties will be returned as well:

• _group CSS helper classes that adds the ability to divide output into segments. Adds the following classes based on current position: group[n]", "first-group-item" and "last-group-item"

• _groupId Same as _group, but containing only the group ID.

• _firstGroupItem Boolean indicating if the iteration is positioned on the first item within a group. Useful if you need to add conditional markup or CSS classes.

• _lastGroupItem Same principle as _firstGroupItem.
