Rails 3 / HAML: How Can I Output Haml Raw From A Variable?

I have some variables within rails that contain some divs like so: @layout_1 = ' .box_1 .column_4
.gutter
.column_4
.gutter
.column_4<

Solution 1:

you would do the same with HAML as well in your .html.haml view file.

= raw @layout_1

or

= @layout_1.html_safe

Solution 2:

Not entirely sure this works, but give it a try:

- output = Haml::Engine.new(@layout1).render
!= output
