handlebars helper: file name, file name with extension about assemble HOT 7 CLOSED

What does this mean? Is this something that would be better as being a default global variable available in the context?

This would be probably two helpers which would enable you to add the file name and/or file extension to the page as a string. One for the name of the current file, {{filename}}, and probably one that grabs the extension of the current file {{fileext}}. However, I can't remember use case so this is unimportant for now. I'll leave it open for a bit, but we can close it if it goes another week or so without me remembering what problem this solved.

I know it is old, but I am struggling with a problem that this helper would solve: I want to build the HTML menu dynamically and have the YAML file with the key-value pairs, where key is the same as the filename of the HTML file, so with with a helper I could compare the current filename and the data and export the class="active" when they match.

@primozcigler we actually added isCurrentPage to all the pages in the pages collection, so you can do something like...

<ul>
{{#each pages}}
  <li class="{{#if isCurrentPage}}active{{/if}}">{{title}}</li>
{{/each}}
</ul>

from assemble.

Or just get https://github.com/helpers/handlebars-helper-isActive (and follow the instructions on the README of that project), then you can do:

<ul>
  {{#each pages}}
  <li {{isActive}}>{{title}}</li>
  {{/each}}
</ul>

from assemble.

That's awesome, I will take a look, thank you!
