Easiest way to make HAML use double quotes instead of single quotes

Fortunately all it takes to make double quotes the global default for attribute wrappers in HAML is to change one line in the installed gem source.

If you're on a Mac, remember to sudo when you edit the source of an installed gem.

  1. # On line 63 of haml-2.1.0/lib/haml/engine.rb, change
  2.  
  3.         :attr_wrapper => "'",
  4.  
  5. # to
  6.  
  7.         :attr_wrapper => "\"",

This is not the best way to make Haml use double quotes. Instead, use the following: Haml::Template.options[:attr_wrapper] = '"'. If you're using Haml in a Ruby on Rails application, add this to RAILS_ROOT/config/environment.rb, and then restart your application to see the change.
