Hi. trying to create a custom helper but having little success with it. Here is the version of my setup
spring boot: 1.3.1.RELEASE
handlebars-spring-boot-starter: 0.2.11
Not manually defining any handlebar related bean in the context.
So far what I have done based on the mention of @HandlebarsHelper in the readme was to create a class exactly as mentioned in the read me, annotated it with @HandlebarsHelper and later with Spring @Component.
So I have:
@Component
@HandlebarsHelper
class CustomHelper {
public CustomHelper() {
}
public static CharSequence greet() {
return "hello world";
}
}
and in the .hbs file I have:
say {{greet}}
But when I visit the page, the following stack trace occurs:
nack.handlebars.HandlebarsException: classpath:website/aboutus.hbs:9:21: java.lang.IllegalStateException: could not execute helper: greet()
classpath:website/aboutus.hbs:9:21] with root cause
java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Class com.github.jknack.handlebars.helper.MethodHelper can not access a member of class org.oruko.dictionary.website.helpers.CustomHelper with modifiers "public static"

Looks like things are going sideways at the point of reflection?
Question is, is this due to going about registering custom helpers the wrong way? or I just stumbled upon a bug?
If it is the former...it would be appreciated if you can help with clarifying the correct step to getting a custom helper registered. Thanks.
