Template Data Model

A layout template renders one entity (a method, property, type, and so on) by reading properties from a page context object with Mustache. This section is the reference for what each context exposes.

Conventions

• Case-insensitive — {{name}}, {{Name}}, and {{NAME}} all resolve to the same property.
• Plain text vs. HTML — plain-text properties use {{prop}} (HTML-escaped). Properties that are already markup — those named *Html, the syntax/code fields, and custom-field value — use the triple brace {{{prop}}} so they pass through unescaped.
• Sections — a property that holds a collection exposes its items under items. Iterate with {{#prop}}{{#items}}…{{/items}}{{/prop}}. Most such properties are null when empty, so the outer section doubles as a presence check.
• Objects — a property that is another context (e.g. parent, assembly) is entered with a section: {{#assembly}}[{{name}}]({{link}}){{/assembly}}, or accessed by dotted path ({{assembly.name}}).

Per-flavor references

The entity contexts differ by driver flavor:

• IVI.NET data model
• IVI-COM data model
• IVI-C data model

Available on every page

Every context derives from a shared base. Its members are mostly used by the pipeline itself; the page title and TOC title are normally set in the layout’s frontmatter rather than read as variables, so base members are rarely referenced directly.

Custom fields

Every entity context exposes customFields, which surfaces the content authored in the Help Editor. The built-in Remarks and Units fields are available directly; other fields are rendered through their auto-discovered partial (see Custom Fields).

Access	Returns	Notes
customFields.remarks	a field, or null	the Remarks field
customFields.units	a field, or null	the Units field

A field exposes a single value (pre-formatted — render with {{{value}}}):

{{#customFields.remarks}}
## Remarks

{{{value}}}
{{/customFields.remarks}}

Shared sub-context shapes

These shapes appear inside many entity contexts (referenced from the per-flavor pages).

Command — an instrument command entry

Property	Type	Description
models	text	The models the command applies to (All Models by default).
command	text	The instrument command string.

A commands context wrapping these has isSingle (true when one command serves all models), command (the single command, when isSingle), and items (the per-model list).

Member summary — an entry in a listing on an overview page

Property	Type	Description
name	text	Display name.
link	text	Relative link to the member’s page.
summary	text	Help summary (collapsed to a single line).

Listing sections (e.g. methods, properties) wrap these in an items collection.

Discrete value — an allowed value

Property	Type	Description
value	text	The value.
description	text	Its description (e.g. an enum member’s summary).

Range item — a per-model numeric range

Property	Type	Description
condition	text	The model the range applies to.
minimum	text	Formatted lower bound (e.g. ≥ 0), or empty.
maximum	text	Formatted upper bound (e.g. ≤ 100), or empty.

Supported models

A supported-models context exposes a single models string (All Models, None, or a comma-separated list); present only on multi-model drivers.
