Multi-line Ruby block in Haml

Updated . Posted . Visible to the public.

There are several options Show archive.org snapshot , but most of them are impractical. The best way is to use the :ruby filter:

:ruby
  puts javascript_include_tag(
    'lib/jquery-1.6.1.min.js',
    'lib/jquery-rails-ujs.js',
    'lib/jquery-ui-1.8.13.custom.min.js',
    'lib/jquery.ui.datepicker-de.js',
    'lib/jquery-ui-timepicker-addon.min.js',
    'lib/jquery.tools.min.js',
    'application.js',
    'google-maps.js',
    :cache => true
  )

Note that you need to use puts to pipe text into the response. From the Haml reference Show archive.org snapshot :

All output sent to $stdout, like with puts, is output into the Haml document.
