Converter eats literal curly Mustache-esque curly braces

[alanhogan]

Steps to reproduce:

• Include the string {{foo}} in your HTML, as content, or in attribute values
• Convert

Expected:

• {{foo}} survives

Actual:

• {{foo}} disappears

Yep, the convert is only meant to parse HTML or ERB to Haml, not sure if it was ever meant to support mustache like templates.

Hmm, right. Well, the thing is, it was for use client-side, so in at least my use case, I’d simply want them preserved, as opposed to converted or removed.

Now, I personally dislike AngularJS and think it breaks standards and breaks with good practice, but this is going to be common for AngularJS sites.

Hey Alan,

I will see what I can do, there may be a way to wrap them in cdata tags or something to preserve them, then unwrap them when the haml conversion is completed.

Thanks

Tom
