You can do follow this tutorial: where you customise the generators: http://paulbarry.com/articles/2010/01/13/customizing-generators-in-rails-3

or just follow this simple way to do it original post: How do I get Haml to work with Rails?

First, install haml as a plugin

ruby script/plugin install git://github.com/nex3/haml.git

Then, Make sure your views are named with a *.html.haml extension. For example:

`-- app
    `-- views
        |-- layouts
        |   `-- application.html.haml
        `-- users
            |-- edit.html.haml
            |-- index.html.haml
            |-- new.html.haml
            `-- show.html.haml

(Note: You could instead install haml as a gem, but for the sake of simplicity, let's just assume using it as a plugin is the best bet.)

Hope this helps.

Add haml to your Gemfile

gem "haml"

If you want to use the scaffold-functions too, add html-rails within your development-group

gem 'haml-rails', :group => :development

Just follow the instruction on the HAML Reference page

In short:

For Rails 3, instead add the following line to the Gemfile: gem "haml"

Once it’s installed, all view files with the ".html.haml" extension will be compiled using Haml.
