Nesting Templates - Quickadd vd Templater issue

[aubreyz]

There must be a way around this.

• I have a template file with my standard YAML header file (which happens to use some Templater code, which is fine because Quickadd uses this)
• The same Standard YAML header is used as part of all my header templates so I include that using standard format

So my Quickadd Template for an article type might be

{{TEMPLATE:Utilities/Template/myyaml.md}}

Some other header data to do with my article type

So far so good --- I can have several different templates but only ever need to edit the YAML in one place.

The problem

I can create new files with the above, but sometimes I need to enter the header into an existing file. I can do this with Templater. The problem is that although Quickadd uses Templater Syntax, this does NOT extend to properly using the standard Templater syntax for file nesting

So if I have the below template file (without the exact path), it is usable by Templater but not by Quickadd

<% tp.file.include("[[myyaml]]") %>

Some other header data to do with my book type

This means having to maintain two entirely separate sets of templates
a) For Quickadd to create new files in a nice way
b) For Templater to add the same headers to existing files

Surely there must be some way around this - either to have common code that can be used by both Plugins (as it would be if I wasn't nesting the templates) or to have Quickadd adding a header to an existing file.

Any hints please?
