webgen users - Aug 2008 - Content processing for include_file?

Is it possible to include and process a Maruku-formatted file via 
{include_file: ...}?

Since the default processing pipeline states that tags should be
replaced before maruku should process a page, this is possible.

No content processing is done for the tag include_file! What I said
before relies solely on the execution order of content processors of a
page file: The default pipeline is erb,tags,maruku,blocks which means
that tags are processed before the content is converted to HTML by
maruku. Therefore, when a tag creates output, its output is formatted
by maruku and thus you can include a maruku file which gets correctly
formatted.

Since template and page files can have more than one block, just add
a block like this to the template:

--- name:quote pipeline:tags,maruku
{include_file: src/quote.page}

and add the following to the place in your template where the quote
should go:

<webgen:blocks name="quote" chain="default.template"
/>
