Polymer 1.0 - Issue With Displaying Values Inside Template Is="dom-repeat"
Solution 1:
You're not doing anything wrong. With the introduction of Polymer 0.9 (and later 1.0) data-binding to the content of text nodes only works if you wrap everything into its own element.
See the Polymer documentation:
The binding annotation must currently span the entire content of the tag
So you have to remove all whitespace and other characters for it to work.
Example from the documentation:
<!-- this works --><template>
First: <span>{{first}}</span><br>
Last: <span>{{last}}</span></template><!-- Not currently supported! --><div>First: {{first}}</div><div>Last: {{last}}</div><!-- Not currently supported! --><div>
{{title}}
</div>
Edit
As of Polymer 1.2, the issue described in the question is no longer problematic / erroneous. Compound bindings now work, see release notes on the Polymer blog.
Solution 2:
Just a heads up, for element attributes though you can use something like a helper function for string concatenation. Here's an example.
<my-foo fullname="{{computeFullName(firstname, lastname)}}">
Hi, my name is <span>{{firstname}}</span>.
</my-foo>
...
computeFullName: function(first, last) {
return first + ' ' + last;
}
And here's the link: https://www.polymer-project.org/1.0/docs/migration.html#data-binding
EDIT: For node content as well, string concatenation can be done using computed properties (I call them helper functions). Here's an example,
<dom-module id="x-custom">
<template>
My name is <span>{{fullName}}</span></template>
</dom-module>
<script>Polymer({
is: 'x-custom',
properties: {
first: String,
last: String,
fullName: {
type: String,
// when `first` or `last` changes `computeFullName` is called once// (asynchronously) and the value it returns is stored as `fullName`computed: 'computeFullName(first, last)'
}
},
computeFullName: function(first, last) {
return first + ' ' + last;
}
...
});
</script>
Solution 3:
With Polymer 1.2 you example code will actually work. Binding annotations no longer need to span the entire tag.
Example:
<div>first name: [[name.first]] last name: [[name.last]]</div>

Solution 4:
You'll want to use a computed property to combine values. Search for them on this page https://www.polymer-project.org/1.0/docs/devguide/properties.html
