Okay, I actually have a concern about this method. Right now it only
accepts this kind of syntax:
{test foo:foo_bar}
Since spaces are not covered by \w+ this is not accepted:
{test foo:foo bar}
So I tried changing \w+ to .+ but of course that is never going to work.
E.g. if I try to pass multiple arguments to the partial like this:
{test foo:foo bar bar:bar foo}
then only one argument will only be passed (foo) and it will have this
value: "foo bar bar" because the .+ includes that.
But what about putting quotation marks around it?
".+"
Still the same problem. Now foo will just have this value: "“foo bar”
bar". So, here is my question: How can I make this method accept
multiple arguments without being limited to that the values have to
match "\w+"?
