Question

In Ruby I can call methods with array elements used as positional parameters like this

method(fixed_arg1, fixed_arg2, *array_of_additional_args)

Here the “*” operator expands the array in place.

I’m trying to do the same in CoffeeScript, but haven’t found a way. Specifically, I want to pass additional arguments in a call to a jQuery function

$('#my-element').toggle(true, *config.toggleOptions)

The syntax above does not work, obviously, and I’m looking for a way that does.

Answer 1

Try

$('#my-element').toggle(true, config.toggleOptions...)
