- if (typeof(person) == 'undefined')
input(type="text", name="person[Name]")
- else
input(type="text", name="person[Name]", value="#{person.Name}")
Is there any way to write this inline? I have an option select and I don't want to do a conditional statement for 30+ values to select the right option.

Reset to default 6You could use mixins
mixin safeInput(person, property)
- if (typeof(person) == 'undefined')
input(type="text", name="person[#{property}]")
- else
input(type="text", name="person[#{property}]", value="#{person[property]}")
Then
mixin safeInput(person, 'Name')
mixin safeInput(person, 'Email')
...
conditional statement should do
input(type='text', name='person[Name]', value= (person?(person.name?person.name:''):''))
however, by design we can always pass a person? this way there is no parison required. Code would be something like
input(type='text', name='person[Name]', value= person.name)
You can short circuit as follows:
input(type="text", name="person[Name]", value="#{person && person.Name}")
When the value is undefined or null, the attribute will not be shown. This should work:
input(type='text', name='person[Name]', value= person && typeof(person))
