<li>Load “haml/template” in Railtie in order to prevent user options set in a Rails initializer from being overwritten</li>

<li>Don’t depend on Rails in haml/template to allow using Haml with ActionView but without Rails itself. (thanks <a href="https://github.com/wedgex">Hunter Haydel</a>)</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="400">4.0.0</h2>

<ul>
<li>
<p>The Haml exectutable now accepts an <code>--autoclose</code> option. You can now specify a list of tags that should be autoclosed</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>The <code>:ruby</code> filter no longer redirects $stdout to the Haml document, as this is not thread safe. Instead it provides a <code>haml_io</code> local variable, which is an IO object that writes to the document.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>HTML5 is now the default output format rather than XHTML. This was already the default on Rails 3+, so many users will notice no difference.</p>
</li>

<li>
<dl>
<dt>The :sass filter now wraps its output in a style tag, as do the new :less and</dt>

<dd>scss filters. The :coffee filter wraps its output in a script tag.</dd>
</dl>
</li>

<li>
<p>Haml now supports only Rails 3 and above, and Ruby 1.8.7 and above. If you still need support for Rails 2 and Ruby 1.8.6, please use Haml 3.1.x which will continue to be maintained for bug fixes.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>The :javascript and :css filters no longer add CDATA tags when the format is html4 or html5. This can be overridden by setting the <code>cdata</code> option to <code>true</code>. CDATA tags are always added when the format is xhtml.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>HTML2Haml has been extracted to a separate gem, creatively named “html2haml”.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>The <code>:erb</code> filter now uses Rails’s safe output buffer to provide XSS safety.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Haml’s internals have been refactored to move the parser, compiler and options handling into independent classes, rather than including them all in the Engine module. You can also specify your own custom Haml parser or compiler class in Haml::Options in order to extend or modify Haml reasonably easily.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Add an <a href="file.REFERENCE.html#hyphenate_data_attrs-option" title="&lt;code&gt;:hyphenate_data_attrs&lt;/code&gt; option"><code>:hyphenate_data_attrs</code> option</a> that converts underscores to hyphens in your HTML5 data keys. This is a language change from 3.1 and is enabled by default. (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/fullsailor">Andrew Smith</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>All Hash attribute values are now treated as HTML5 data, regardless of key. Previously only the “data” key was treated this way. Allowing arbitrary keys means you can now easily use this feauture for Aria attributes, among other uses. (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/ElvinEfendi">Elvin Efendi</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Added <code>remove_whitespace</code> option to always remove all whitespace around Haml tags. (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/vdh">Tim van der Horst</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Haml now flattens deeply nested data attribute hashes. For example:</p>

<p><code>.foo{:data =&gt; {:a =&gt; &quot;b&quot;, :c =&gt; {:d =&gt; &quot;e&quot;, :f =&gt; &quot;g&quot;}}}</code></p>

<p>would render to:</p>

<p><code>&lt;div class=&#39;foo&#39; data-a=&#39;b&#39; data-c-d=&#39;e&#39; data-c-f=&#39;g&#39;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</code></p>

<p>(thanks to <a href="https://github.com/koszta">Péter Pál Koszta</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Filters that rely on third-party template engines are now implemented using <a href="http://github.com/rtomayko/tilt">Tilt</a>. Several new filters have been added, namely SCSS (:scss), LessCSS, (:less), and Coffeescript (:coffee/:coffeescript).</p>

<p>Though the list of “official” filters is kept intentionally small, Haml comes with a helper method that makes adding support for other Tilt-based template engines trivial.</p>

<p>As of 4.0, Haml will also ship with a “haml-contrib” gem that includes useful but less-frequently used filters and helpers. This includes several additional filters such as Nokogiri, Yajl, Markaby, and others.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Generate object references based on <code>#to_key</code> if it exists in preference to <code>#id</code>.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Performance improvements. (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/cheald">Chris Heald</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Helper <code>list_of</code> takes an extra argument that is rendered into list item attributes. (thanks <a href="http://iainbarnett.me.uk/">Iain Barnett</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fix parser to allow lines ending with <code>some_method?</code> to be a Ruby multinline. (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/bradediger">Brad Ediger</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Always use :xhtml format when the mime_type of the rendered template is ‘text/xml’. (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/stepheneb">Stephen Bannasch</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>html2haml now includes an <code>--html-attributes</code> option. (thanks <a href="https://github.com/snatchev">Stefan Natchev</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fix for inner whitespace removal in loops. (thanks <a href="https://github.com/richardkmichael">Richard Michael</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Use numeric character references rather than HTML entities when escaping double quotes and apostrophes in attributes. This works around some bugs in Internet Explorer earlier than version 9. (thanks <a href="https://github.com/doxavore">Doug Mayer</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fix multiline silent comments: Haml previously did not allow free indentation inside multline silent comments.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fix ordering bug with partial layouts on Rails. (thanks <a href="https://github.com/spohlenz">Sam Pohlenz</a>)</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Add command-line option to suppress script evaluation.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>It’s now possible to use Rails’s asset helpers inside the Sass and SCSS filters. Note that to do so, you must make sure sass-rails is loaded in production, usually by moving it out of the assets gem group.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>The Haml project now uses <a href="http://semver.org/">semantic versioning</a>.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="320">3.2.0</h2>

<p>The Haml 3.2 series was released only as far as 3.2.0.rc.4, but then was renamed to Haml 4.0 when the project adopted semantic versioning.</p>

<h2 id="318">3.1.8</h2>

<ul>
<li>Fix for line numbers reported from exceptions in nested blocks (thanks to Grant Hutchins &amp; Sabrina Staedt).</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="317">3.1.7</h2>

<ul>
<li>Fix for compatibility with Sass 3.2.x. (thanks <a href="https://github.com/totallymike">Michael Westbom</a>).</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="316">3.1.6</h2>

<ul>
<li>In indented mode, don’t reindent buffers that contain preserved tags, and provide a better workaround for Rails 3.2.3’s textarea helpers.</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="315">3.1.5</h2>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Respect Rails’ <code>html_safe</code> flag when escaping attribute values (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/gerad">Gerad Suyderhoud</a>).</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fix for Rails 3.2.3 textarea helpers (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/jcoleman">James Coleman</a> and others).</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="314">3.1.4</h2>

<ul>
<li>Fix the use of <code>FormBuilder#block</code> with a label in Haml.</li>

<li>Fix indentation after a self-closing tag with dynamic attributes.</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="313">3.1.3</h2>

<ul>
<li>Stop partial layouts from being displayed twice.</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="312">3.1.2</h2>

<ul>
<li>
<p>If the ActionView <code>#capture</code> helper is used in a Haml template but without any Haml being run in the block, return the value of the block rather than the captured buffer.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Don’t throw errors when text is nested within comments.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fix html2haml.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fix an issue where destructive modification was sometimes performed on Rails SafeBuffers.</p>

</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="311">3.1.1</h2>

<ul>
<li>Update the vendored Sass to version 3.1.0.</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="310">3.1.0</h2>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Don’t add a <code>type</code> attribute to <code>&lt;script&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;style&gt;</code> tags generated by filters when <code>:format</code> is set to <code>:html5</code>.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Add an <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#escape_attrs-option" title="&lt;code&gt;:escape_attrs&lt;/code&gt; option"><code>:escape_attrs</code> option</a> that allows attributes to either remain unescaped (for things like embedding PHP directives in Haml) or to be always escaped rather than <code>#escape_once</code>d. This can also be used from the command line via <code>--no-escape-attrs</code>.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Allow custom filters to be loaded from the command line.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h3 id="backwards_incompatibilities__must_read">Backwards Incompatibilities – Must Read!</h3>

<ul>
<li>

<ul>
<li>
<p><code>html2haml</code> now properly generates Haml for silent script expressions nested within blocks.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>IronRuby compatibility. This is sort of a hack: IronRuby reports its version as 1.9, but it doesn’t support the encoding APIs, so we treat it as 1.8 instead.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="3023">3.0.23</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/3.0.7">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<h3 id="encoding_support">Encoding Support</h3>

<p>Haml 3.0.7 adds support for Ruby-style <code>-# coding:</code> comments for declaring the encoding of a template. For details see <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#encodings" title="the reference">the reference</a>.</p>

<p>This also slightly changes the behavior of Haml when the <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#encoding-option" title="&lt;code&gt;:encoding&lt;/code&gt; option"><code>:encoding</code> option</a> is not set. Rather than defaulting to <code>&quot;utf-8&quot;</code>, it defaults to the encoding of the source document, and only falls back to <code>&quot;utf-8&quot;</code> if this encoding is <code>&quot;us-ascii&quot;</code>.</p>

<p>The <code>haml</code> executable also now takes an <code>-E</code> option for specifying encoding, which works the same way as Ruby’s <code>-E</code> option.</p>

<h3 id="other_changes">Other Changes</h3>

<ul>
<li>Default to the <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#format-option" title="&lt;code&gt;:html5&lt;/code&gt; format"><code>:html5</code> format</a> when running under Rails 3, since it defaults to HTML5 as well.</li>
</ul>

<h3 id="bug_fixes_2">Bug Fixes</h3>

<ul>
<li>When generating Haml for something like <code>&lt;span&gt;foo&lt;/span&gt;,</code>, use <code>= succeed</code> rather than <code>- succeed</code> (which doesn’t work).</li>
</ul>

<p>Rails 2.3.6 was released with various bugs related to XSS-protection and interfacing with Haml. Rails 2.3.7 was released shortly after with fixes for these bugs. Thus, Haml no longer supports Rails 2.3.6, and anyone using it should upgrade to 2.3.7.</p>

<p>Attempting to use Haml with Rails 2.3.6 will cause an error.</p>

<h3 id="installation_in_rails">Installation in Rails</h3>

<p><code>haml --rails</code> is no longer necessary for installing Haml in Rails. Now all you need to do is add <code>gem &quot;haml&quot;</code> to the Gemfile for Rails 3, or add <code>config.gem &quot;haml&quot;</code> to <code>config/environment.rb</code> for previous versions.</p>

<p><code>haml --rails</code> will still work, but it has been deprecated and will print an error message. It will not work in the next version of Haml.</p>

<p>The <span class='object_link'><a href="Haml/Helpers.html#haml_tag-instance_method" title="Haml::Helpers#haml_tag (method)">haml_tag</a></span> helper can now take a string using the same class/id shorthand as in standard Haml code. Manually-specified class and id attributes are merged, again as in standard Haml code. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">haml_tag(&#39;#foo&#39;) #=&gt; &lt;div id=&#39;foo&#39; /&gt;
haml_tag(&#39;.bar&#39;) #=&gt; &lt;div class=&#39;bar&#39; /&gt;
haml_tag(&#39;span#foo.bar&#39;) #=&gt; &lt;span class=&#39;bar&#39; id=&#39;foo&#39; /&gt;
haml_tag(&#39;span#foo.bar&#39;, :class =&gt; &#39;abc&#39;) #=&gt; &lt;span class=&#39;abc bar&#39; id=&#39;foo&#39; /&gt;
haml_tag(&#39;span#foo.bar&#39;, :id =&gt; &#39;abc&#39;) #=&gt; &lt;span class=&#39;bar&#39; id=&#39;abc_foo&#39; /&gt;</code></pre>

<p>Cheers, <a href="http://github.com/hasclass/">S. Burkhard</a>.</p>

<h4 id="_with_multiple_lines_of_content"><code>haml_tag</code> with Multiple Lines of Content</h4>

<p>The <span class='object_link'><a href="Haml/Helpers.html#haml_tag-instance_method" title="Haml::Helpers#haml_tag (method)">haml_tag</a></span> helper also does a better job of formatting tags with multiple lines of content. If a tag has multiple levels of content, that content is indented beneath the tag. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">haml_tag(:p, &quot;foo\nbar&quot;) #=&gt;
  # &lt;p&gt;
  #   foo
  #   bar
  # &lt;/p&gt;</code></pre>

<h4 id="_with_multiple_lines_of_content_2"><code>haml_tag</code> with Multiple Lines of Content</h4>

<p>Similarly, the <span class='object_link'><a href="Haml/Helpers.html#haml_concat-instance_method" title="Haml::Helpers#haml_concat (method)">haml_concat</a></span> helper will properly indent multiple lines of content. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">haml_tag(:p) {haml_concat &quot;foo\nbar&quot;} #=&gt;
  # &lt;p&gt;
  #   foo
  #   bar
  # &lt;/p&gt;</code></pre>

<h4 id="_and__with_"><code>haml_tag</code> and <code>haml_concat</code> with <code>:ugly</code></h4>

<p>When the <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#ugly-option" title="&lt;code&gt;:ugly&lt;/code&gt; option"><code>:ugly</code> option</a> is enabled, <span class='object_link'><a href="Haml/Helpers.html#haml_tag-instance_method" title="Haml::Helpers#haml_tag (method)">haml_tag</a></span> and <span class='object_link'><a href="Haml/Helpers.html#haml_concat-instance_method" title="Haml::Helpers#haml_concat (method)">haml_concat</a></span> won’t do any indentation of their arguments.</p>

<h3 id="basic_tag_improvements">Basic Tag Improvements</h3>

<ul>
<li>
<p>It’s now possible to customize the name used for <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#object_reference_" title="object reference">object reference</a> for a given object by implementing the <code>haml_object_ref</code> method on that object. This method should return a string that will be used in place of the class name of the object in the generated class and id. Thanks to <a href="http://twitter.com/halorgium">Tim Carey-Smith</a>.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>All attribute values may be non-String types. Their <code>#to_s</code> method will be called to convert them to strings. Previously, this only worked for attributes other than <code>class</code>.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h3 id="_and__attributes_accept_ruby_arrays"><code>:class</code> and <code>:id</code> Attributes Accept Ruby Arrays</h3>

<p>In an attribute hash, the <code>:class</code> attribute now accepts an Array whose elements will be converted to strings and joined with</p>
<nobr>`" "`</nobr>
<p>. Likewise, the <code>:id</code> attribute now accepts an Array whose elements will be converted to strings and joined with <code>&quot;_&quot;</code>. The array will first be flattened and any elements that do not test as true will be stripped out. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">.column{:class =&gt; [@item.type, @item == @sortcol &amp;&amp; [:sort, @sortdir]] }</code></pre>

<p>could render as any of:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">class=&quot;column numeric sort ascending&quot;
class=&quot;column numeric&quot;
class=&quot;column sort descending&quot;
class=&quot;column&quot;</code></pre>

<p>depending on whether <code>@item.type</code> is <code>&quot;numeric&quot;</code> or <code>nil</code>, whether <code>@item == @sortcol</code>, and whether <code>@sortdir</code> is <code>&quot;ascending&quot;</code> or <code>&quot;descending&quot;</code>.</p>

<p>A single value can still be specified. If that value evaluates to false it is ignored; otherwise it gets converted to a string. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">.item{:class =&gt; @item.is_empty? &amp;&amp; &quot;empty&quot;}</code></pre>

<p>could render as either of:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">class=&quot;item&quot;

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%div{:data =&gt; {:author_id =&gt; 123, :post_id =&gt; 234}}</code></pre>

<p>Will compile to:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">&lt;div data-author_id=&#39;123&#39; data-post_id=&#39;234&#39;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</code></pre>

<p>The <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#attributes_option" title="&lt;code&gt;:attributes&lt;/code&gt;"><code>:attributes</code></a> option can now take regular expressions that specify which tags to make self-closing.</p>

<h3 id="_option"><code>--double-quote-attributes</code> Option</h3>

<p>The Haml executable now has a <code>--double-quote-attributes</code> option (short form: <code>-q</code>) that causes attributes to use a double-quote mark rather than single-quote. Thanks to <a href="http://charlesroper.com/">Charles Roper</a>.</p>

<h3 id="_filter"><code>:css</code> Filter</h3>

<p>Haml now supports a <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#css-filter" title="&lt;code&gt;:css&lt;/code&gt; filter"><code>:css</code> filter</a> that surrounds the filtered text with <code>&lt;style&gt;</code> and CDATA tags.</p>

<h3 id="_integration"><code>haml-spec</code> Integration</h3>

<p>We’ve added the cross-implementation tests from the <a href="http://github.com/norman/haml-spec">haml-spec</a> project to the standard Haml test suite, to be sure we remain compatible with the base functionality of the many and varied <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haml#Implementations">Haml implementations</a>.</p>

<h3 id="ruby_19_support">Ruby 1.9 Support</h3>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Haml and <code>html2haml</code> now produce more descriptive errors when given a template with invalid byte sequences for that template’s encoding, including the line number and the offending character.</p>

<li>
<p>Haml and <code>html2haml</code> now accept Unicode documents with a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark">byte-order-mark</a>.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h3 id="rails_support">Rails Support</h3>

<ul>
<li>When <code>form_for</code> is used with <code>=</code>, or <code>form_tag</code> is used with <code>=</code> and a block, they will now raise errors explaining that they should be used with <code>-</code>. This is similar to how <span class='object_link'><a href="Haml/Helpers.html#haml_concat-instance_method" title="Haml::Helpers#haml_concat (method)">Haml::Helpers#haml_concat</a></span> behaves, and will hopefully clear up some difficult bugs for some users.</li>

<h3 id="_improvements"><code>html2haml</code> Improvements</h3>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Ruby blocks within ERB are now supported. The Haml code is properly indented and the <code>end</code>s are removed. This includes methods with blocks and all language constructs such as <code>if</code>, <code>begin</code>, and <code>case</code>. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">&lt;% content_for :footer do %&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;Hi there!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;% end %&gt;</code></pre>

<p>is now transformed into:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">- content_for :footer do
  %p Hi there!</code></pre>

<p>Thanks to <a href="http://chendo.net">Jack Chen</a> and <a href="http://drnicwilliams">Dr. Nic Williams</a> for inspiring this and creating the first draft of the code.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Inline HTML text nodes are now transformed into inline Haml text. For example, <code>&lt;p&gt;foo&lt;/p&gt;</code> now becomes <code>%p foo</code>, whereas before it became:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%p
  foo</code></pre>

<p>The same is true for inline comments, and inline ERB when running in ERB mode: <code>&lt;p&gt;&lt;%= foo %&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</code> will now become <code>%p= foo</code>.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>ERB included within text is now transformed into Ruby interpolation. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">&lt;p&gt;
  Foo &lt;%= bar %&gt; baz!
  Flip &lt;%= bang %&gt;.
&lt;/p&gt;</code></pre>

<p>is now transformed into:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%p
  Foo #{bar} baz!
  Flip #{bang}.</code></pre>
</li>

<li>
<p><code>&lt;script&gt;</code> tags are now transformed into <code>:javascript</code> filters, and <code>&lt;style&gt;</code> tags into <code>:css</code> filters. and indentation is preserved. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;
  function foo() {
    return 12;
  }
&lt;/script&gt;</code></pre>

<p>is now transformed into:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">:javascript
  function foo() {
    return 12;
  }</code></pre>
</li>

<li>
<p><code>&lt;pre&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;textarea&gt;</code> tags are now transformed into the <code>:preserve</code> filter. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">&lt;pre&gt;Foo
  bar
    baz&lt;/pre&gt;</code></pre>

<p>is now transformed into:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%pre
  :preserve
    Foo
      bar
        baz</code></pre>
</li>

<li>
<p>Self-closing tags (such as <code>&lt;br /&gt;</code>) are now transformed into self-closing Haml tags (like <code>%br/</code>).</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>IE conditional comments are now properly parsed.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Attributes are now output in a more-standard format, without spaces within the curly braces (e.g. <code>%p{:foo =&gt; &quot;bar&quot;}</code> as opposed to <code>%p{ :foo =&gt; &quot;bar&quot; }</code>).</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>IDs and classes containing <code>#</code> and <code>.</code> are now output as string attributes (e.g. <code>%p{:class =&gt; &quot;foo.bar&quot;}</code>).</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Attributes are now sorted, to maintain a deterministic order.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p><code>&gt;</code> or <span class='object_link'><a href="Haml/Helpers.html#succeed-instance_method" title="Haml::Helpers#succeed (method)">#succeed</a></span> are inserted where necessary when inline formatting is used.</p>
</li>

<li>

This makes Haml templates not crash when given non-ASCII input that’s marked as having an ASCII encoding.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fixed an incompatibility with Hpricot 0.8.2, which is used for <code>html2haml</code>.</p>

<h2 id="2212">2.2.12</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/2.2.12">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<p>There were no changes made to Haml between versions 2.2.11 and 2.2.12.</p>

<h2 id="2211">2.2.11</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/2.2.11">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Fixed a bug with XSS protection where HTML escaping would raise an error if passed a non-string value. Note that this doesn’t affect any HTML escaping when XSS protection is disabled.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fixed a bug in outer-whitespace nuking where whitespace-only Ruby strings blocked whitespace nuking beyond them.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Use <code>ensure</code> to protect the resetting of the Haml output buffer against exceptions that are raised within the compiled Haml code.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fix an error line-numbering bug that appeared if an error was thrown within loud script (<code>=</code>). This is not the best solution, as it disables a few optimizations, but it shouldn’t have too much effect and the optimizations will hopefully be re-enabled in version 2.4.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Don’t crash if the plugin skeleton is installed and <code>rake gems:install</code> is run.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Don’t use <code>RAILS_ROOT</code> directly. This no longer exists in Rails 3.0. Instead abstract this out as <code>Haml::Util.rails_root</code>. This changes makes Haml fully compatible with edge Rails as of this writing.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="2210">2.2.10</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/2.2.10">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Fixed a bug where elements with dynamic attributes and no content would have too much whitespace between the opening and closing tag.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Changed <code>rails/init.rb</code> away from loading <code>init.rb</code> and instead have it basically copy the content. This allows us to transfer the proper binding to <code>Haml.init_rails</code>.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Make sure Haml only tries to enable XSS protection integration once all other plugins are loaded. This allows it to work properly when Haml is a gem and the <code>rails_xss</code> plugin is being used.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Mark the return value of Haml templates as HTML safe. This makes Haml partials work with Rails’ XSS protection.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="229">2.2.9</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/2.2.9">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p>Fixed a bug where Haml’s text was concatenated to the wrong buffer under certain circumstances. This was mostly an issue under Rails when using methods like <code>capture</code>.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fixed a bug where template text was escaped when there was interpolation in a line and the <code>:escape_html</code> option was enabled. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">Foo &amp;lt; Bar #{&quot;&lt;&quot;} Baz</code></pre>

<p>with <code>:escape_html</code> used to render as</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">Foo &amp;amp;lt; Bar &amp;lt; Baz</code></pre>

<p>but now renders as</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">Foo &amp;lt; Bar &amp;lt; Baz</code></pre>
</li>
</ul>

<h3 id="rails_xss_protection">Rails XSS Protection</h3>

<p>Haml 2.2.9 supports the XSS protection in Rails versions 2.3.5+. There are several components to this:</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p>If XSS protection is enabled, Haml’s <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#escape_html-option" title="&lt;code&gt;:escape_html&lt;/code&gt;"><code>:escape_html</code></a> option is set to <code>true</code> by default.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Strings declared as HTML safe won’t be escaped by Haml, including the <a href="file.Helpers.html#html_escape-instance_method" title="&lt;code&gt;#html_escape&lt;/code&gt;"><code>#html_escape</code></a> helper and <code>&amp;=</code> if <code>:escape_html</code> has been disabled.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Haml helpers that generate HTML are marked as HTML safe, and will escape their input if it’s not HTML safe.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="228">2.2.8</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/2.2.8">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<p>Fixed a bug with <code>end</code> being followed by code in silent scripts - it no longer throws an error when it’s nested beneath tags.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Fixed a bug with inner whitespace-nuking and conditionals. The <code>else</code> et al. clauses of conditionals are now properly whitespace-nuked.</p>

<p>Add “Sass” to the <code>--version</code> string for the executables.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Raise an exception when commas are omitted in static attributes (e.g. <code>%p{:foo =&gt; &quot;bar&quot; :baz =&gt; &quot;bang&quot;}</code>).</p>

<p>This isn’t very good style, but we’re supporting it for consistency’s sake.</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>Don’t add <code>require &#39;rubygems&#39;</code> to the top of init.rb when installed via <code>haml --rails</code>. This isn’t necessary, and actually gets clobbered as soon as haml/template is loaded.</p>

<h2 id="222">2.2.2</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/2.2.2">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<p>Haml 2.2.2 is a minor bugfix release, with several notable changes. First, <a href="file.Helpers.html#haml_concat-instance_method" title="&lt;code&gt;haml_concat&lt;/code&gt;"><code>haml_concat</code></a> will now raise an error when used with <code>=</code>. This has always been incorrect behavior, and in fact has never actually worked. The only difference is that now it will fail loudly. Second, Ruby 1.9 is now more fully supported, especially with the <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#htmlstyle_attributes_" title="new attribute syntax">new attribute syntax</a>. Third, filters are no longer escaped when the <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#escape_html-option" title="&lt;code&gt;:escape_html&lt;/code&gt; option"><code>:escape_html</code> option</a> is enabled and <code>#{}</code> interpolation is used.</p>

<h2 id="221">2.2.1</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/2.2.1">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<p>Haml 2.2.1 is a minor bug-fix release.</p>

<h2 id="220">2.2.0</h2>

<p><a href="http://github.com/nex3/haml/commit/2.2.0">Tagged on GitHub</a>.</p>

<p>Haml 2.2 adds several new features to the language, fixes several bugs, and dramatically improves performance (particularly when running with <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#ugly-option" title="&lt;code&gt;:ugly&lt;/code&gt;"><code>:ugly</code></a> enabled).</p>

<h3 id="syntax_changes">Syntax Changes</h3>

<h4 id="htmlstyle_attribute_syntax">HTML-Style Attribute Syntax</h4>

<p>Haml 2.2 introduces a new syntax for attributes based on the HTML syntax. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%a(href=&quot;http://haml.info&quot; title=&quot;Haml&#39;s so cool!&quot;)
  %img(src=&quot;/images/haml.png&quot; alt=&quot;Haml&quot;)</code></pre>

<p>There are two main reasons for this. First, the hash-style syntax is very Ruby-specific. There are now <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haml#Implementations">Haml implementations</a> in many languages, each of which has its own syntax for hashes (or dicts or associative arrays or whatever they’re called). The HTML syntax will be adopted by all of them, so you can feel comfortable using Haml in whichever language you need.</p>

<p>Second, the hash-style syntax is quite verbose. <code>%img{:src =&gt; &quot;/images/haml.png&quot;, :alt =&gt; &quot;Haml&quot;}</code> is eight characters longer than <code>%img(src=&quot;/images/haml.png&quot; alt=&quot;Haml&quot;)</code>. Haml’s supposed to be about writing templates quickly and easily; HTML-style attributes should help out a lot with that.</p>

<p>Ruby variables can be used as attribute values by omitting quotes. Local variables or instance variables can be used. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%a(title=@title href=href) Stuff</code></pre>

<p>This is the same as:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%a{:title =&gt; @title, :href =&gt; href} Stuff</code></pre>

<p>Because there are no commas separating attributes, more complicated expressions aren’t allowed. You can use <code>#{}</code> interpolation to insert complicated expressions in a HTML-style attribute, though:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%span(class=&quot;widget_#{@widget.number}&quot;)</code></pre>

<h4 id="multiline_attributes">Multiline Attributes</h4>

<p>In general, Haml tries to keep individual elements on a single line. There is a <a href="#multiline">multiline syntax</a> for overflowing onto further lines, but it’s intentionally awkward to use to encourage shorter lines.</p>

<p>However, there is one case where overflow is reasonable: attributes. Often a tag will simply have a lot of attributes, and in this case it makes sense to allow overflow. You can now stretch an attribute hash across multiple lines:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%script{:type =&gt; &quot;text/javascript&quot;,
        :src  =&gt; &quot;javascripts/script_#{2 + 7}&quot;}</code></pre>

<p>This also works for HTML-style attributes:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">    %script(type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;
        src=&quot;javascripts/script_#{2 + 7}&quot;)</code></pre>

<p>Note that for hash-style attributes, the newlines must come after commas.</p>

<h4 id="universal_interpolation">Universal interpolation</h4>

<p>In Haml 2.0, you could use <code>==</code> to interpolate Ruby code within a line of text using <code>#{}</code>. In Haml 2.2, the <code>==</code> is unnecessary; <code>#{}</code> can be used in any text. For example:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%p This is a really cool #{h what_is_this}!
But is it a #{h what_isnt_this}?</code></pre>

<p>In addition, to <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#escaping_html" title="escape">escape</a> or <a href="file.HAML_REFERENCE.html#unescaping_html" title="unescape">unescape</a> the interpolated code, you can just add <code>&amp;</code> or <code>!</code>, respectively, to the beginning of the line:</p>

<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby">%p&amp; This is a really cool #{what_is_this}!
&amp; But is it a #{what_isnt_this}?</code></pre>

<h4 id="flexible_indentation">Flexible indentation</h4>

<p>Haml has traditionally required its users to use two spaces of indentation. This is the universal Ruby style, and still highly recommended. However, Haml now allows any number of spaces or even tabs for indentation, provided:</p>

<ul>
<li>Tabs and spaces are not mixed</li>

<li>The indentation is consistent within a given document</li>
</ul>

<h3 id="new_options">New Options</h3>

<h4 id=""><code>:ugly</code></h4>

<p>The <code>:ugly</code> option is not technically new; it was introduced in Haml 2.0 to make rendering deeply nested templates less painful. However, it’s been greatly empowered in Haml 2.2. It now does all sorts of performance optimizations that couldn’t be done before, and its use increases Haml’s performance dramatically. It’s enabled by default in production in Rails, and it’s highly recommended for production environments in other frameworks.</p>

<h4 id="encoding-option"><code>:encoding</code></h4>

<p>This option specifies the encoding of the Haml template when running under Ruby 1.9. It defaults to <code>Encoding.default_internal</code> or <code>&quot;utf-8&quot;</code>. This is useful for making sure that you don’t get weird encoding errors when dealing with non-ASCII input data.</p>

<h3 id="deprecations">Deprecations</h3>

<h4 id="_3"><code>Haml::Helpers#puts</code></h4>

<p>This helper is being deprecated for the obvious reason that it conflicts with the <code>Kernel#puts</code> method. I’m ashamed I ever chose this name. Use <code>haml_concat</code> instead and spare me the embarrassment.</p>

<h4 id="_4"><code>= haml_tag</code></h4>

<p>A lot of people accidentally use ”<code>= haml_tag</code>”. This has always been wrong; <code>haml_tag</code> outputs directly to the template, and so should be used as ”<code>- haml_tag</code>”. Now it raises an error when you use <code>=</code>.</p>

<h3 id="compatibility">Compatibility</h3>

<h4 id="rails">Rails</h4>

<p>Haml 2.2 is fully compatible with Rails, from 2.0.6 to the latest revision of edge, 783db25.</p>

<h4 id="ruby_19">Ruby 1.9</h4>

<p>Haml 2.2 is also fully compatible with Ruby 1.9. It supports Ruby 1.9-style attribute hashes, and handles encoding-related issues (see <a href="#encoding-option">the <code>:encoding</code> option</a>).</p>

<h3 id="filters">Filters</h3>

<h4 id="_5"><code>:markdown</code></h4>

<p>There are numerous improvements to the Markdown filter. No longer will Haml attempt to use RedCloth’s inferior Markdown implementation. Instead, it will look for all major Markdown implementations: <a href="https://github.com/rtomayko/rdiscount">RDiscount</a>, <a href="https://github.com/rtomayko/rpeg-markdown">RPeg-Markdown</a>, <a href="http://maruku.rubyforge.org">Maruku</a>, and <a href="http://www.deveiate.org/projects/BlueCloth">BlueCloth</a>.</p>

<h4 id="_6"><code>:cdata</code></h4>

<p>There is now a <code>:cdata</code> filter for wrapping text in CDATA tags.</p>

<h4 id="_7"><code>:sass</code></h4>

<p>The <code>:sass</code> filter now uses options set in <code>Sass::Plugin</code>, if they’re available.</p>

<h3 id="executables">Executables</h3>

<h4 id="_8"><code>haml</code></h4>

<p>The <code>haml</code> executable now takes <code>-r</code> and <code>-I</code> flags that act just like the same flags for the <code>ruby</code> executable. This allows users to load helper files when using Haml from the command line.</p>

<p>It also takes a <code>--debug</code> flag that causes it to spit out the Ruby code that Haml generates from the template. This is more for my benefit than anything, but you may find it interesting.</p>

<h4 id="_9"><code>html2haml</code></h4>

<p>The <code>html2haml</code> executable has undergone significant improvements. Many of these are bugfixes, but there are also a few features. For one, it now understands CDATA tags and autodetects ERB files. In addition, a line containing just ”<code>- end</code>” is now a Haml error; since it’s not possible for <code>html2haml</code> to properly parse all Ruby blocks, this acts as a signal for the author that there are blocks to be dealt with.</p>

<h3 id="miscellaneous">Miscellaneous</h3>

<h4 id="xhtml_mobile_dtd">XHTML Mobile DTD</h4>

<p>Haml 2.2 supports a DTD for XHTML Mobile: <code>!!! Mobile</code>.</p>

<h4 id="yard">YARD</h4>

<p>All the documentation for Haml 2.2, including this changelog, has been moved to <a href="http://yard.soen.ca">YARD</a>. YARD is an excellent documentation system, and allows us to write our documentation in <a href="http://maruku.rubyforge.org">Maruku</a>, which is also excellent.</p>
