Passing parameters / objects to a custom component?

Is it possible to pass parameters / objects to custom components?   For example:   <@component id="custom-component-id" param="object-or-string-value" />

Hi,

 

Is it possible to pass an array as a parameter? I've made some tests but couldn't manage to make it work.

For instance, I'd like to pass a thread list built from two boards:

 

<#assign topics1 = rest("/boards/id/ID1/topics/recent").messages />
<#assign topics2 = rest("/boards/id/ID2/topics/recent").messages />
<#assign topics = [topics1,topics2] />

<@component id="paramtest" param=topics />

Or is it possible to make a single objet from topics1 and topics2?

 

Thanks!

Henrik

I am curious about the same, because I cannot get it to work..

 

I want to pass a custom object to a child component, but cannot get it to work..

 

Is there any real life example that is not based on R.E.S.T. return datas?
