Slimi

Yet another implementation for Slim template language.

Slimi provides almost the same functionality as Slim, with a few additional useful features, such as generating AST with detailed location information about embedded Ruby codes.

Originally, Slimi was developed for Slimcop, a RuboCop runner for Slim template. It uses Slimi to apply rubocop --auto-correct to embedded Ruby codes in Slim template.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile.

gem 'slimi'

This will cause app/views/**/*.slim files to be rendered by Slimi.

Slimi can be tested from command line by slimi executable. This takes Slim code from STDIN and converts it into another form.
