spread_sheet.handsontable({
    autoWrapCol: true,
    autoWrapRow: true,
    columns: [
        {data: 0},
        {data: 1, validator: validateDate},
        {data: 2},
        {data: 3},
        {data: 4},
        {data: 5, validator: validateDate},
        {data: 6},

    ],
    colWidths: window.innerWidth*.12,
    contextMenu: true,
    currentRowClassName: "row_selected",
    data: data,
    fixedColumnsLeft: 1,
    height: window.innerHeight - 32,
    manualColumnMove: true,
    manualColumnResize: true,

    outsideClickDeselects: false,
    persistentState: true,
    rowHeaders: true,
    stretchH: "last",
    width: window.innerWidth
});</script>

but it dont work with emberjs handlebar template

i want to implement it in emberjs but i dont know how to add this in handlebar template ? i feel same problem when i tried to implement d3js for barchart ?

can i do it with “didInsert” of view object ?

Yes, you can use the didInsertElement event to be sure that the element has been added to the DOM and available for manipulation.

Probably want something like this:

App.HandsontableView = Ember.View.extend({
    classNames: ['spread-sheet'],

    didInsertElement: function () {
        var data = [['']];

        this.$('.spread-sheet').handsontable({
             data: data,
             // and so on....
        });
    }
});

Then you can do in template:

{{view App.HandsontableView}}

Note that this is replacing the

<div id="spread_sheet"></div>

that you had previously…since the view itself has a div, we can just render into the view itself by assigning a proper class name.

thanx tristanpendergr i also get another way, here

Yup, that and mine are pretty much equivalent. It’s just a style thing, but I much prefer actually sticking my code in the didInsertElement hook as opposed to making it a function and then calling .on('didInsertElement') on the function, but I’ve seen it both ways.
