Front Matter in partials?

[spacedawwwg]

is there a way to access front matter from within a partial?

In the layout I can access {{frontMatter.title}} but when I try the same from within a partial it does not work?

I have also tried {{../frontMatter.title}} to no prevail.

Is there any way to do this at all?

Some options:

1) Use partial parameters:

<!-- someFile.html -->
{{> somePartial title=frontMatter.title}}

<!-- somePartial.hbs -->
{{title}}

2) Use the @file reference:

<!-- someFile.html -->
{{> somePartial}}

<!-- somePartial.hbs -->
{{@file.data.frontMatter.title}}

3) Use the handlebars-layouts embed helper instead of the partial syntax:

<!-- someFile.html -->
{{{embed "somePartial"}}}

<!-- somePartial.hbs -->
{{frontMatter.title}}

Sorry for not responding. Using partial parameters worked for me, the @file reference didn't.

Happy using partial parameters though.
