Embedding, and using Templates to find a template in the templates-hidden folder

[Dan Gravell]

A simple template 'simple-example.html' inside templates-hidden:

<div>

    <div data-lift="embed?what=to-embed"></div>

</div>

When I do:

Templates("templates-hidden" :: "simple-example" :: Nil)

I get exactly the same XML as above. Is there a way to get the to-embed file embedded before it is passed to a CssSel? eager_eval doesn't appear to work when declared on the data-lift attribute.

Thanks,

Dan

Hi Dan,

I believe what you are looking for is S.runTemplate

Hey there,

eager_eval doesn't work?

This works for me:

data-lift="ReallyCoolSnippet.render?eager_eval=true"

and I think it's what you want...

All the best,

Ari

Thanks, this works, just needed to know the right call!

Ari, I am calling this from within another snippet. AFAIK (now) Templates() just returns the raw XML without performing any evaluation on it.
