I'm trying to move my full-stack rails app over to Angular a page at a time. I'm using ui-router (https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router) and angular-rails-templates (https://github.com/pitr/angular-rails-templates). I assumed the nghaml extension would allow me to continue to use rails helpers such as link_to, paths, etc. in my haml so just copied and pasted my haml page into the template; in an ideal world I would now be at a point where one page was being served client-side and every other page (including the ones it's linked to) were still being served server-side. Instead, I'm getting errors such as:
undefined local variable or method `dashboard_patients_path' for #<Object:0x007fc87865cff0>
and link_to, etc.
I thought this (angularjs with client side haml) would be a solid solution, specifically sharpper's response since it seemed directly applicable.
module CustomHamlEngine
class HamlTemplate < Tilt::HamlTemplate
def evaluate(scope, locals, &block)
scope.class_eval do
include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers
include Rails.application.routes.mounted_helpers
include ActionView::Helpers
end
super
end
end
end
Rails.application.assets.register_engine '.haml', CustomHamlEngine::HamlTemplate
However, even after restarting the server, no dice.
Thoughts?
