Get DOM element using meteor template helpers

Viewed 16428

For example my html is

<template name="atest">
 <a href="{{route}}" data-test="test">Click</a>
</template>

In meteor template helpers, I want to be able to select the anchor tag.

Template.atest.route = function() {
 console.log(this.data-test);
};

I am not sure if this can be done or not, but certainly, it cannot be done via any method I have tried. I know there is a way to pass argument in a template instance, but I don't want that. I want to be able to select that anchor tag that template instance is in and do something with it.

Appreciate any help I can get.
