Hello fellow Ember devs, I am trying to do something that might sound unorthodox but! I need to do it…
I am trying to compile a handlebars string to a plain HTML string which then I will need to insert into a pure js table library. I got to a partial result for now, it’s a bit hacky but it seems to be working except for one important issue, it will not compile helpers. The error I’m getting for example is Assertion Failed: A helper named ‘link-to’ could not be found I am fairly new to Ember, and I feel like I’m missing something, maybe a proper context that I am not setting which would allow to see the Ember helpers…
Thanks! 
function getHTMLTemplate() {
const tpl = hbs`{{#link-to}}Go{{/link-to}}`; // gives an error
const extendedComp = Ember.Component.extend({
actions: {
sayHi() {
console.log('Hi');
},
},
});
const component = extendedComp.create({
greeting: 'Hello',
style: 'display:none;', // hide it
layout: tpl,
});
// Fetch the template
component.createElement();
const templateAsString = component.element.innerHTML;
return templateAsString;
}
