I have one Rails application and all files are in erb format. Is there any quick way to convert whole application's erb file to haml.. without any conflict.
And also would like to know for the Reverse..
Thanks in advance. :)
For erb-to-haml
You can use from the command line html2haml
html2haml your_erb_file new_haml_file
If you want to convert all your files in one go, look at this article : http://shifteleven.com/articles/2008/06/08/converting-erb-to-haml-snippet
erb2haml gem will do the trick.. have a look to https://github.com/dhl/erb2haml
For haml-to-erb
I recommend you HAML2ERB service . It's really cool and generates valid ERB/HTML code! Tested on big HAML views (over 800 lines of markup) from the real production app. Project active :)
have a look to this also http://makandracards.com/makandra/544-convert-haml-to-erb
I would have posted this in a Github Gist or using Tinkerbin, but the indentation appears WAY off when I copy and paste my HAML.
The error message is: Inconsistent indentation: "\t\t " was used for indentation, but the rest of the document was indented using 2 spaces.
I posted an imgur to show you where the error is happening, the browser is telling me line 8, as you can see in the photo.
Bear with me, this is probably an easy fix but I am very new to HAML.
If you're using SublimeText, add the following to Packages/User/Preferences.sublime-settings
"tab_size": 2,
"translate_tabs_to_spaces": true
... then re-paste the code and all tabs will be changed to spaces.
I think you should use either space or tab,
or you can select all and convert into spaces once finish your code, SUBLIME text editor is best for it
If you're using Ruby on Rails, make sure to make the indentation consistent with application.html.haml in views/layouts
When I'm in an html.erb file, I get no snipMate snippets.
I would like both HTML and Ruby, or just HTML would be fine,
How would I do this?
Would I need to write a set of snippets?
If so, is there a way of pulling in existing snippets without copying them?
Is there a way of telling vim to go into html mode when it sees .html erb?
You can use an autocmd to set the filetype to html when opening a ".html.erb" file. This could have unwanted side effects for plugins that work for ".erb" files.
autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.html.erb set filetype=html
You can also load more than one set of snippets by using a dotted filetype:
autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.html.erb set filetype=html.eruby
See :help snippet-syntax in the snipMate help for more info.
Snippets are stored in directory called snippets somewhere in your ~/.vim folder.
If you look there, there is usually one file per filetype, there is a c.snippets, a ruby.snippets, so it seems what you have to do is to create an erb.snippets there with what you want.
Eventually you could copy the content of ruby.snippets and html.snippets into your new erb.snippets.
Alternatively you can search on github, some people have posted their own erb.snippets configuration. For example, there is a nice collection there :
https://github.com/scrooloose/snipmate-snippets
The best thing would to try first to open a snippet file and look at the syntax, it is pretty easy to create your own snippet depending on what you use the most.
I am currently on a promoting tour for UltiSnips on StackOverflow. UltiSnips supports extending other file types, your erb.snippets would look like this:
extends html, ruby, rails
snippet temp "A snippet only in Erb"
erb rules ${1}
endsnippet
A conversion script for snipMate snippets is shipped with UltiSnips, so switching is easy.
I used the autocommand method to the set the filetype, but then I got html syntax errors for things like this:
<%= image_tag("logo.png", :alt => "Sample App", :class => "round") %>
The last two angle brackets would be highlighted in red, which drove me bonkers. So, I created a symlink called eruby.snippets that points to html.snippets. That worked like a champ and now I don't have to make changes in two places. I also have an eruby-rails snippet directory for non-html eruby snippets.
This is on a Mac OS X system. Note that an alias won't work. You need to hit the terminal and use the ln command. Not sure about doing this on a Windoze system.
You can assign multiple snippets scopes to a single filetype. (I've found that altering the filetype tends to break some syntax highlighting).
You can check that the filetype for erb files is indeed 'eruby' with:
:set filetype?
If you're using the maintained fork of snipmate, it looks like you'll want both the eruby.snippets and eruby-rails.snippets from the snipmate-snippets repository (owned by honza, but I don't have enough reputation to link to it here) (see the INSTALL section of the snipmate README for proper setup).
If you are using the maintained fork, I believe setting g:snipMate.scope_aliases in your .vimrc with the following will work for your example:
let g:snipMate = {}
let g:snipMate.scope_aliases = {}
let g:snipMate.scope_aliases['eruby'] = 'eruby,eruby-rails'
I've added a pull request to snipmate to have their documentation updated.
Jumping on the UltiSnips bandwagon after trying SnipMate for a while. Like SirVer mentioned, having the html, ruby, etc snippets available within an *.erb file was as simple as adding the extend line to the eruby.snippets file.
With the original snipMate plugin, create a file ~/.vim/ftplugin/erb_snippets.vim and put the following into it:
silent call ExtractSnipsFile(g:snippets_dir . 'html.snippets', &l:filetype)
silent call ExtractSnipsFile(g:snippets_dir . 'ruby.snippets', &l:filetype)
I'm converting pdf files in my Ruby project. I'm using the pdf toolkit gem for this.
The documentation shows how you can use pdftotext
pdftotext(file,outfile = nil,&block)
In my project I am converting a PDF file without any arguments and can just do this:
PDF::Toolkit.pdftotext("file.pdf", "file.txt)
If I run it from the command line, I can preserve the layout by passing that param
pdftotext -layout file.pdf
What is the correct syntax to achieve this with PDF::Toolkit?
Thanks!
Figured out how to make it work so I'm answering my own question, but if there's a "proper way" to do this, I'd love to see how to do it.
Put the options in the second argument and the text file will be named file_name.txt
PDF::Toolkit.pdftotext("file_name.pdf","-layout" )
I use Aloha theme in NetBeans 6.8, everything looks cool except these blue tags in HAML files, which are unreadable. How to find a place where this blue color could be changed?
P.S. I use that HAML plugin which seems to be unsupported and lacks features

Lots of people would DIE for a decent Netbeans HAML plugin.
I suggest that we just PAY for someone to write it :
http://www.cofundos.org/project.php?id=181
Sad to say "that HAML plugin which seems to be unsupported and lacks features", is the only Haml plugin there is for netbeans. I don't know if there is source code for it out there either (never looked). If you look, the colours are all defined in a file called haml.nbs. You can find it by extracting the org.netbeans.haml.jar from the nbm you downloaded and then extracting the haml.nbs from that. Ubuntu's file-roller will cheerfully do this for you.
The contents of the file look like this:
COLOR:declaration: {
default_coloring: "comment";
foreground_color: "gray";
}
...
With a little fiddling you could probably change those values to suit your needs and put it back together. It should work.
Of course if there was source for the darn thing that would be even better.
