I have the following code, and hate having to indent code to the same line when I just want it to stay as it is?

Can I run it through some filter that will ignore my indentation and wont complain?

Answer 1

HAML syntax is indentation sensitive and there is no ‘filter’ which will ignore your indentation. HAML uses indentation to convert your code properly to respective HTML code blocks.

If you are tired of manually indenting your haml code and are using emacs as your editor then you can follow the instructions here

and permanently solve your problem
