Nesting Jade/Pug with functions or precompiled mixins

[SargoDarya]

Here's what I'm trying to achieve:

Pseudo locals

locals.link_to = function() {
  return '<a href="#">|</a>';
}

Jade

- link_to()
  strong Foo
  | Bar

What I'd like to output in that case:

<a href="#">
  <strong>Foo</strong>
  Bar
</a>

What currently gets outputted:

<strong>Foo</strong>
Bar

So my solution I guess would be to have some kind of precompiled mixin. Is something like that possible already?

Unfortunately there is no support for a feature like this. #1950 is a more generic ticket that includes documenting the internals of how mixin functions work, including how external blocks are handled. I imagine that when #1950 is fixed this ticket should be fixed as well. Stay tuned.
