I want to do something like this:

{{user.name.toLowerCase()}}

but I get this error:

Error: Parse error on line X:

...tatus {{user.name.toLowerCase()}}>  

-----------------------^

Expecting 'ID', got 'undefined'

I created the following helper, but I'm curious if there's a better solution out there.

Handlebars.registerHelper('toLowerCase', function(value) {

    if(object) {

        return new Handlebars.SafeString(value.toLowerCase());

    } else {

        return '';

    }

});
