How to run a Rails 3 application with HAML and SASS as default templates?

line

rails new someapp -m haml

does not work. It seems to need a path to something where.

Update: haml-rails actually installed gem install haml-rails , but the line above will not work.

Very short version

Create a new rails application based on a simple template that installs Haml out of the box (and some other interesting additional features).

 rails new ProjectName -m https://raw.github.com/RailsApps/rails3-application-templates/master/rails3-haml-html5-template.rb

Also check this out:

EDIT:

If you want to do this through the gem, you just need to run the default command

rails new myapp -m https://raw.github.com/RailsApps/rails-composer/master/composer.rb

This is a safe command because it points to the main branch of the gem and will be a stable URL. After running this command, you will be offered options. Just ask the HAML and SASS masters.

Gem haml-rails allows you to generate views in Haml, but not the original layout.

After running rails new someapp (note: w / o -m haml ) and adding the gem "haml-rails" to your Gemfile you just need to rename application.html.erb to application.html.haml and manually convert its contents from ERB to Haml.

After that, all generated views will be in Haml.

It is trivial, but make sure you restart the rail server after adding haml gems and run bundle install . This led me for the first time.

Install gem html2haml and you can instantly change html content for haml from within vim. Take a look at this - http://www.economyofeffort.com/2014/07/20/convert-html-to-haml-within-vim-buffer/
