RequireJS Handlebars Plugin

This plugin enables loading Handlebars templates dynamically during development and compile them during build.

Usage

Define an template like people.hb:

<div class="foo">
    <h1>{{title}}</h1>
    <ul>
        {{#each people}}
        <li>{{name}}</li>
        {{/each}}
    </ul>
</div>

Load it with the hb plugin:

require(['hb!people'], function(people){
    var markup = people({
        title : 'A list of people',
        people : [
			{ name: 'hans' },
			{ name: 'kim' },
			{ name: 'mads' },
		]
    });
});

The plugins is only required for dynamic load so you can use the r.js setting stubModules to remove the text! and hb! plugins during build. And to remove unnecessary Handlebars code use pragmasOnSaveand the excludeHandlebars.
