as far as i now ejs (as most of other template engines) does not support asynchronous helper. you have to fetch the comments first and then pass them to your template rendering
in your controller: function(req, res, params){ var debate = //resolve the debate * debate.getComments(function(err,comments){ * * console.log(comments.length); self.respond({comments: comments, debate: debate}) }); * } in view *<%= comments.length; %>* Am Montag, 18.
