ruby - Is it possible to pass a value to a YAML list? -

i'm looking way pass value list enumerable, produce set of list items <ul>. value should displayed item allows it.

the following not work is, should illustrate goal achieve.

haml

%ul   =list_of t('.menu', favorites_count: 15) |item|     #{item}

yaml

menu:   - new   - favorites ('%{favorites_count}')   - archived   - deleted

note: had yaml include <li> tags in dictionary form, inside strings, 1 of includes count value. find bit clumsy mix html , yaml, so:

menu:   first_item: <li>new</li>   second_item: <li>favorites %{favorites_count}</li>   third_item: <li>archived</li>   fourth_item: <li>deleted</li>

hence looking cleaner option, render tags on haml side , not litter them in yaml.

i18n.t uses interpolation syntax similar sprintf's, can use advantage:

%ul   = list_of t(".item") |item|     = sprintf(item, favorites_count: 15)

i'm not entirely sure that's right haml syntax, idea.
