Collection iteration

[pro100sanya]

Hello, could you give full example for noob, how to iterate over collection?

With html template and data and binding. I am trying to bind values, but cannot get it work.

Thanks.

have a look at the below:

var plates = require('plates');

var markup = '<div data-bind="id"></div><div data-bind="name"></div>';
var data = [
    {
        id:'1',
        name:'bob'
    },
    {
        id:'2',
        name:'sue'
    },
    {
        id:'3',
        name:'sam'
    },
    {   
        id:'4',
        name:'joe'
    }
]

console.log(plates.bind(markup, data));

the output will be:

<div data-bind="id">1</div>
<div data-bind="name">bob</div>
<div data-bind="id">2</div>
<div data-bind="name">sue</div>
<div data-bind="id">3</div>
<div data-bind="name">sam</div>
<div data-bind="id">4</div>
<div data-bind="name">joe</div>
