About the behavior of `prettyprint` option about pug HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi,

prettyprint is not about PHP compilation but as in pug-js, it's for final HTML output. For PHP debugging, I created the phpSingleLine option. You can pass it to true to get a new line for each PHP statement generated.

But I'm agree prettyprint=true as no real meaning except maybe to display HTML for a demonstration. In production, you should always set it to false. And for inline tags render, use:

span a
span b

To get ab and:

span a
=" "
span b

To get a b, or you can also:

| #[span a] #[span b]

This is the recommended syntax for long texts with inline tags inside, like in:

| I'm #[strong happy] to see you.

To come back to prettyprint, it can be handled by an other program to compress or to beautify. But this is a port of pug-js. We try to implement pug-js features as it and adapt them to PHP syntax and possibilities as close as possible to the original pug to provide a standard solution.

It's out of the question to display all tags with PHP. And the priority remains to allow in production (prettyprint=false) all the syntaxes above to be able to display inline tags with or without spaces between.

If I can improve this rendering without break this logic and with no extra PHP code in compiled files, I'll do it; but I will not take the risk to cause regressions. I prefer to keep standard tools as it and provide customizations so if thoses syntaxes and phpSingleLine do not cover your need, please tell me you final goal. I will try to give you the best way to acheive it.

Hi, with the new refactorized version, we will try to be as close as possible as the pug-js results for both pretty and non-pretty options but we will try to provide more customizations.

Hi, there is a new option now available to use the native pugjs engine (until the 3.0):

$pug = new Pug(array(
    'pugjs' => true
));
echo $pug->render('
span a
=" "
span b
');

This is a pure wrapper solution with no PHP support in templates (all run with node.js).

You can update to 3.0.0-alpha2, it should be fixed. Consecutive span are no longer affected by prettyprint option. Please don't hesitate to test the new pug-php 3 and give us your feedback.
