Is it possible to use Phlex as templating language?

[Urist-McUristurister]

Is it possible to use Phlex as templating language, akin to Markaby or Arbre? Without all the hassle of an extra class, all the methods, variables, etc. Just a file, say, app/views/posts/index.html.phlex, that would contain all the code that normally goes into template method of a Phlex component, and let Rails (or, for example, Tilt) take care of everything else.

If it's not possible at the moment, are there, maybe, any plans to enable this in the future?..

Thanks!

Ooh, I kinda like that idea!

So simply define a template app/views/posts/index.html.phlex with contents like this:

h1 do
 "hello"
end

Which is essentially just the content of the template method, and have Rails render it as it would any other template, with access to controller instance variables, etc.

It's definately not something you would want to do all the time, but as a conveniant way to create quick and simple views, it really nice.

Yeah, that's exactly what I mean! ;-)
