Haml 5 is automatically escaping Angular code with quotes

[raelgc]

I have the following Angular snippet:

%a{'ng-click': "showModal('policies.tpl.html')"}Privacy Policy

Which works fine under Haml 4.

I've upgrade to Haml 5.1.2, and now this is rendered as:

<a ng-click='showModal(&#39;policies.tpl.html&#39;)'>Privacy Policy</a>

I tried to configure an initializer do not escape stuff like this:

# config/initializers/haml.rb

# See more options in the documentation: https://haml.info/docs/yardoc/Haml/Options.html
Haml::Template.options[:escape_filter_interpolations] = false
Haml::Template.options[:escape_html] = false

But I still have the same output.

are you using any frameworks with this?

experiencing something similar but I'm ahead of you version wise (going from Haml 5.1.2 to 5.2.0)... and it feels related to #1015 but not completely sure yet. It certainly involves apostrophes getting converted to ' in a javascript template defined in haml where previously they weren't

- class_name = "requested-field {{= required ? 'required' : '' }}".html_safe

@bigethan After some tests, it worked for me using escape_attrs:

# config/initializers/haml.rb

# See more options in the documentation: https://haml.info/docs/yardoc/Haml/Options.html
# Haml::Template.options[:escape_filter_interpolations] = false
Haml::Template.options[:escape_html] = false
Haml::Template.options[:escape_attrs] = false

ah! nice, seems to be this commit then #1028 :-) thanks for the followup!

Looks like it got solved! <3

to follow up, these configs didn't fix our issues with the change, we'll likely need to revisit how we're encoding things.
