Yep, using this for all my views.
The biggest limitation I'm finding at the moment is that view blocks are
not lazily loaded (they're imported in the render class's constructor),
however, I'm only using blocks in layouts to grab things like "meta",
"css", "scripts" and "content". This can be fixed by moving things around a
little bit, and I'm thinking of the best way to do that. I'm finding that
blocks are not used much when writing Mustache templates.
MustacheCake will attempt to find view (and element) files in this order:
- Using the extension specified by your controller (Controller::$ext).
- Using ".mustache".
- Using ".ctp".
If a view (or element) is found to use a ".ctp" extension, MustacheCake
will be "smart" and pass it back to render using the normal Cake
View::_evaluate() routine. So all your "old" templates render as usual.
Also, you can call elements using $this->_View->element('foo') in render
classes to place them into Mustache templates (N.B. using Mustache partials
syntax will put them through the Mustache renderer only). I have not tried
going the other way, but it should work as well (i.e. call Mustache
elements in ".ctp" files using $this->element('foo')).
Neat thing about this is that you can use plugins like DebugKit without
recreating any of their views, while using Mustache for all your project's
views and elements.
