Unbuffered Code Issue with variables declared at beginning of pug template when using loader

[Tanisha0494]

So the issue I'm having is when I try and debug / run my code I get this error:

SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'var'

I have my doc set up correctly. I tested in the sublime text editor it has a pug-lint extension and it runs perfectly.

Here's the code It's getting hung up on:

- var accessories_selected = !{accessories_selected};
- var plan_selected = !{plan_selected};
- var dateNow = new Date();
- var dd = dateNow.getDate();
- var monthSingleDigit = dateNow.getMonth() + 1, mm = monthSingleDigit < 10 ? '0' + monthSingleDigit : monthSingleDigit;
- var yy = dateNow.getFullYear().toString().substr(2);
- var formattedDate = mm + '/' + dd + '/' + yy;

p(style='text-align: center')
  b Testy test test

ul
    br 
    - for(var i=0; i > accessories_selected.length; i++){
        span #{accessories_selected[i].name}
        li #{accessories_selected[i].description}
    - }

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for the help.

@Tanisha0494 I corrected your sample and it work fine:

-
    var accessories_selected = [
      {name: 'aaa', description: 'desc1'},
      {name: 'bbb', description: 'desc2'},
      {name: 'ccc', description: 'desc3'},
    ],
    dateNow = new Date(),
    dd = dateNow.getDate(),
    monthSingleDigit = dateNow.getMonth() + 1,
    mm = monthSingleDigit < 10 ? '0' + monthSingleDigit : monthSingleDigit,
    yy = dateNow.getFullYear().toString().substr(2),
    formattedDate = mm + '/' + dd + '/' + yy;

  p
    b Date
    span : #{formattedDate}

  ul
    each item in accessories_selected
      li
        span #{item.name}:
        span #{item.description}

Your error was at first line: - var accessories_selected = !{accessories_selected};, this destroy the array.
