Using data in partials #308

Open nltesown opened 6 years ago

nltesown commented 6 years ago

Partials lack some documentation. I've tried and seen that a partials object is exposed to the templates and is used to import the partials. Now I need to find out how a partial can use the data passed to the main template. Is it even possible? I've tried, but the partial is rendered literally. (I use the lodash engine).

lodash doesn't handle partials directly so it's not possible to use them directly through consolidate. However, someone just updated underscore to support partials. I think this can be done with lodash too. If you would like to submit a PR with the changes to add support for partials and the tests required, I'll review it. Also, if you'd like to submit a PR with more documentation around partials, I'll review that too!

Thanks
