Twitter typeahead.js: Possible to use Angular JS as template engine? If not how do I replace "{{}}" for Hogan/Mustache js?
angularjs, hogan.js, mustache, templating-engine, typeahead.js
Solution
If you want to use Hogan.js with Angular, you can change the delimiters by doing something like:
var text = "my <%example%> template."
Hogan.compile(text, {delimiters: '<% %>'});
Problem
I am working with twitter's typeahead.js and I was wondering if it was possible to modify `hogan.js` to use something other than `{{}}`? I am looking at the minified code now and I have no idea what to change for something so simple. Doing a find and replace breaks it. I am asking this mainly because I'm using Angular JS but twitter's typeahead requires a templating engine, causing hogan and angular's `{{}}` to clash. An even better solution would be simply modifying Angular JS (I know it's not a templating engine) and ditching Hogan to fit the following criteria: Any template engine will work with typeahead.js as long as it adheres to the following API: ``` // engine has a compile function that returns a compiled template var compiledTemplate = ENGINE.compile(template); // compiled template has a render function that returns the rendered template // render function expects the context to be first argument passed to it var html = compiledTemplate.render(context); ```
