Load HAML partial from another HAML file

Is it possible in HAML to use haml in haml like templates?

example:

page1 for example: 

haml: menu.haml

%p 
  content

as you know, get our layout from layout.haml (like a banner and such). I want to make a seperate menu part in a haml file. Is this even possible?

You can add partials as embedded hamlinside existing template:

For example, you have a view file called view.html.haml:

%h2 This is the first view
%h4 the following line 'inserts' an external code inside the view
=render 'partial'
%h4 this text will appear next of partial

end the partial code partial.html.haml:

%p
  %span This is the external code

so, the final view when it is compiled will be:

%h2 This is the first view
%h4 the following line 'inserts' an external code inside the view
%p
  %span This is the external code
%h4 this text will appear next of partial

The text inside quotes next render y the path to partial inside app/view folder in Rails without file extension, and you can add options, such as :layout or :partial. About Sinatra the path to partial works as the same way, just change the views path.

Yes, you can even render haml partials like so:

= render :partial => "sidebar"

Sure

= Haml::Engine.new(menu.haml).render(self)

Where self is current context in your view files

Yes. Assuming menu.haml in located in your views directory, and assuming it takes no locals, it's as easy as this:

= haml :menu
