it’s Polish, you could call a street thug “drab”, although not in the face as he could return a punch.

Can be done.
It could look up for a drab-commander attribute in the parents tree (not only <div>, as I can imagine it would be useful also with <form>). If not found, it should use the default (resolved from the controller) one. Also, you may use drab-commander attribute directly in the tag with drab-event.
PS. Sorry for a late reply, was quite busy recently

Would be awesome! ^.^
No worry, I’ve been crazy-busy at work recently as well, plus I’ve been watching you update to Elixir 1.5 support (I updated my Drab when you did that 24 minutes after your release ^.^).

Hi there
A great thank for all your work, Drab is awesome ! 
I got 2 questions on your library (sorry, I’m quite a newbie here) :
- I kept using Haml on my templates since Rails, I guess I need to make a choice right now if I want to use Drab ?
- My plan is to initialize an html template from a controller, then to post back some datas through a Phoenix API (AJAX call) ; I would like to use Drab as a callback to this POST API : is there any way to trigger Drab from my controller ?
Reason of this is to keep my client playing with datas while being disconnected…
thanks for your help !

A couple of ways, mostly be embedding javascript to the page you are sending or so, but what are you trying to accomplish?

If you want to use Drab.Live (living assigns), yes. The eex engine is working only with html templates. It could be extended to use haml, anyway I have no plans to do it this days.
But, you probably (I did not test it) use the rest of of Drab modules - like Element or Query.
Theoretically yes (if you find a way to get an access to socket in the controller), but I can’t see the point of doing it. Drab is made for replace ajax calls. If you need to run some JS, you can always call Drab event handler from the client side, see Drab.Core – drab v0.10.5

@grych Sooooo, about my PR and (not as important) other bug report and a new release with those? ^.^
Without my PR, Drab is not capable of being put into a mix release without crashing on load (why is testing code existing in the main codebase?!).

This will be fixed in the next release, all about phoenix 1.3 compatibility. Pls be patient, I am doing it only in my spare time (not too much this days!)

Lol, well the PR has nothing to do with 1.3 stuff, that is just release stuff. Calling Code.ensure_compiled or whatever it was returns {:error, :embedded} when the program is mix released, thus crash only on release. ^.^
