include an included view with blade and Laravel 4

Question

I want to use a partial view with content from another partial view, something like this:

@include('view1', array('content' => @include('view2')))

Unfortunately the view2is rendered as expected but view1is not, and just outputs @includein plain text.

The 2 views are not related at all therefore I believe I cannot use @yield (as this will mean a view will have to extend another).

Answer 1

Assuming that the inclusion of both views aren't dynamic, when returning the master view (the one that contains the include), you can nest view2

return View::make('master')->nest('content', 'view2');

Then in the view

@include('view1', array('content' => $content))

That or you could just include view2 within view1, is there a specific reason that this needs to be in the master view?
