could u please add some sample at README.md?

If it's pug example code you are looking for then just check out here.

I think the kinds of examples that would be helpful here are how to use blade directives in the pug syntax.

from what I can tell, you'll want to use the :escaped filter and you'll need to handle both the beginning and ending statements for each directive.

eg.

ul
  :escaped @foreach($array as $value)
  li {{ $value }}
  :escaped @endforeach

It would be nice if this had some custom keyword support for them
eg.

$pug->addKeyword('foreach', function ($args) {
    return array(
        'beginPhp' => '@foreach (' . $args . ')',
        'endPhp' => '@endforeach',
    );
});

[nmsmith22389]

Yeah I suppose I agree... It's not a very elegant solution because I feel like it messes some of the blade stuff up and doesn't work as well as I would like it to. The lack of docs isn't very helpful either.

I'm not a blade user myself. If there is something you learned that wasn't immediately obvious, feel free to PR the README with it.

[partounian]

I noticed you closed this on grounds of the PR to README, but could the addKeyword functionality be added? Or does anyone know how to use the customKeywords passthrough for this? I have tried inputting the arguments of the above command in the passthrough array and with slight variations to no avail. Also noticed, I can't use a php function inside a tag/value (notable, the csrf_token function).

I have managed to escape the inline value by doing this,
input(type='hidden', value!="'. csrf_token() .'", name='_token')
but the function doesn't get compiled into the value it comes out as plain text.

Note for others: Using the {{ csrf_field() }} works.

addKeyword is not what you need here, then it neither the syntax to pass value, to call global functions just use:

input(type='hidden' value!=csrf_token() name='_token')

You can also use the raw code with:

- csrf_field()

If the functions are not global, you will have to pass it from your framework to view variables, see the helpers documentation: https://github.com/pug-php/pug#php-helpers-functions

Just want to add some of my experience with PUG and Blade:
It does not work or on a very inconvenience level. The code looks really bad and the mixture of Blade and PUG does not always work. Mainly because of the expected indention of PUG.

However, I found another nice way to use PUG with Laravel: VueJs and VueLoader. It is described here: https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/single-file-components.html

I just leave it here as an alternative.

[kylekatarnls]

Vue.js is a really different approach. For example, to inject data in template since, you send data and template and let the client compile it. With pug server-side, you send to the client rendered HTML with data already compiled in it.

But what I really not undrestand is what mix blade an pug? It seems redundant to me (each, mixins, expression insertion), all exist in pug.

[Konafets]

Yes, the approach is different. Regarding the mix of blade and pug: I thought you are bound to use Blade for things like iterations and did not looked carefully to the pug documentation. Thanks for pointing it out.

[kylekatarnls]

Blade iterations are very verbose. And Pug iterations indent is meaningful. I recommend:

each item in items
  p=item

over any blade wrapping for iterations.

Also prefer to well learn and use 1 template engine rather than use several and miss nice features.

[partounian]

Just starting off I am using pug to simply have the HTML look clean while using blade for the logic.

[partounian]

Also the reason I was asking about custom keywords is so I can use the blade logic without :escaped

[kylekatarnls]

What do you call blade logic? Sections is block in pug, component is mixin, can you tell me what feature of blade you would implement as a new keyword? Because both blade and pug are very complete template engines and I don't see what would miss. Are you looking for the $loop information feature?

[partounian]

Foreach for example.

[kylekatarnls]

As I already say here: #2 (comment) and here: #2 (comment) foreach exists in pug:
each item in items is exactly the same as @foreach ($items as $item), do not reinvent the wheel, take benefit of existing features.

We should not implement blade helpers until having a good reason to do it.

[partounian]

My apologies, I thought the foreach in pug would only be using JS variables, I did not realize it is integrated that nicely with Laravel's PHP.

[kylekatarnls]

Glad it works for you now. :)

[Konafets]

What is the equivalent of @yield and @stack in pug?

[kylekatarnls]

See block and append. Should acheive the same goal.

[Konafets]

Thanks, one more question:

I have this code

html(lang="{{ config('app.locale') }}")

According to this comment the usual moustache syntax should work, but it does not. I got

<html lang="{{ config('app.locale') }}">

in the FE.

I also tried - config('app.locale'), which does not work out neither.

[fdorantesm]

You don't need to use moustaches.

`html(lang=config('locale'))
