Simple haml-sass conversion for jekyll

haml_converter.rb

module Jekyll
  require 'haml'
  class HamlConverter < Converter
    safe true
    priority :low

    def matches(ext)
      ext =~ /haml/i
    end

    def output_ext(ext)
      ".html"
    end

    def convert(content)
      engine = Haml::Engine.new(content)
      engine.render
    end
  end

  require 'sass'
  class SassConverter < Converter
    safe true
    priority :low

     def matches(ext)
      ext =~ /sass/i
    end

    def output_ext(ext)
      ".css"
    end

    def convert(content)
      engine = Sass::Engine.new(content)
      engine.render
    end
  end
end

sorry if this is obvious/stupid - how do you use the stuff defined in the YAML front-matter inside the haml chunk?

i could always move it down as a variable, but that's a bit ugly...

@mwotton, you have to put it inside Moustache markup. See the docs here: https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/wiki/YAML-Front-Matter

@dtjm so no variables are actually defined for the use of the Haml renderer? Does the Moustache get run first or second? I guess " - @InputData = {{ inputdata }}" isn't terrible, if the Moustach gets run first...

@mwotton, oh I see what you are saying. I don't know if there are variables available in the HAML scope.

is it possible to mix haml and markdown ? or is that a crazy question because both are a kind of templating sugar and why would one be used with the other ?

@rubyonrailstutor Absolutely! Check out this section of the HAML docs. It requires the markdown to be put in it's own section, but it should work nicely from what others on the net have said.

@radamant how can I prevent Jekyll completely from compiling my SCSS files? I want to handle it myself with 3rd party solutions outside of Jekyll.
