Using with Blade templates

Hello. HEML looks super useful! I’d like to use it to build our Blade templates (for use with Laravel), however, I’m wondering how to get around the following issue.

For example, in my Blade file, I use

<a href="http://{{ $domain }}/auth/verify/{{ $user['confirmation'] }}">@lang('email.confirm_button')</a>

I want the contents inside the {{ }} tags to effectively be ignored by HEML. It mostly works, but there’s a problem with the quotation marks. Using the online editor, the above gives

<a href="http://{{ $domain }}/auth/verify/{{ $user[&#39;confirmation&#39;] }}" class="a"><span class="a__text">@lang('email.confirm_button')</span></a>

which is almost perfect, but the ' is replaced by '.

If I include heml-ignore on the tag then the template parts work, but then I lose the HEML specific additions for a link.

<a href="http://{{ $domain }}/auth/verify/{{ $user['confirmation'] }}" heml-ignore="">@lang('email.confirm_button')</a>

Any ideas? Thanks!

Fantastic! I’m excited to try it out. Thank you so much, @avigoldman.

Sounds good 👍

The only problem I can think of is that there are many different template systems out there. Ejs is quite common in the Node.js community and uses <% and %>. Some moustache flavours uses only a single { and }.

edit: didn’t read the last message, seems good 👍
