Synopsis

The easiest way to use HAML in Julia is in the form of the haml"" macro. Just write your HAML code in-line and it will expand to a string:

julia> using HAML

julia> link = "https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ"

julia> haml"""
       %html
         %body
           %a(href=link) Hello, world!
       """ |> print
<html>
  <body>
    <a href='https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ'>Hello, world!</a>
  </body>
</html>

It is also possible to store HAML in a file and execute it from there:

julia> write("/tmp/test.hamljl", """
       %html
          %body
             %a(href=\$link)= \$greeting
       """)
47

julia> render(stdout, "/tmp/test.hamljl", variables=(link=link, greeting="Hello, world!",))
<html>
   <body>
      <a href='https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ'>Hello, world&#33;</a>
   </body>
</html>

In this case, note that input variables need to be quoted with a dollar sign $. This distinguishes them from file-local variables.

Syntax

If you are already familiar with Ruby-flavoured HAML, read about the differences here. If not, either use read the getting started guide or the syntax reference.
