Question

I am looking for a very simple example where e.g. there is a two way binding between span text and an input element using Backbone.js and Rivets.js. Perhaps there is one in the Rivets.js docs, but I can’t find it. Any help please?

Answer 1

Assuming that you mean a two-way binding (model-to-view and view-to-model) on an input element and a one-way binding (model-to-view) on a span element, then the following view will do what you describe.

<div id="user-view">
  <span>{ user:name }</span>
  <input rv-value="user:name">
</div>

Here is a fiddle that demonstrates things in action. It includes a Backbone adapter on the : interface and shows how to bind a model to the view (this is just a more trivial example of what is already shown on the homepage).
