HAML + ColdFusion 8 + Coldbox

Fell in love with HAML and curious if we are able to integrate this into CF8 + CB? Has anyone tried this before? Is it even possible in CF?

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Cheers.

I am not familiar with haml. Can you enlighten us. Maybe there is a port we can add easily

So far I have not been able to find a way to integrate it into CF. If I do, I will definitely post it.

HAML is written in Rails isn’t it?

I found Henke’s post, inquired there as well, and I found the jar he used but was wondering if anyone else played with it.

I really like how much less code you have to type in your views, but CF may not be supported.

So here is just a suggestion, have you used the HTML helper in ColdBox. This was its purpose.

No I have not Luis, I will have to take a peak at that to see how comparable it is.

It is not all of it, but the purpose was to allow it to make HTML writing easier. We can always improve it.

But a HAML port is not a bad idea for a module.

After reading Henke’s post, I am going to experiment with those jar files this week. Outside of his posts, I have not found anything available on CF integration. In Ruby/Rails many have converted to using it over erb for their view layers.
