It seems that the PHP version also supports pattern linking through data:
pattern-lab/patternlab-php#161
It is undocumented, but it is still a feature alot of people like to see in the node version i guess.

Hi @bramsmulders

check out .\source\_patterns\01-molecules\05-navigation\00-primary-nav.mustache It has an arbitrary example to showcase this functionality.

<li><a href="{{ link.pages-homepage }}">Home</a></li>

@bmuenzenmeyer yep, that part of the code is in, and works super awesome. But what @bradfrost & @dmolsen were talking about was doing this in data:

"foo": {
    "url" : "link.pages-about"
}

And read that out like this:

{{# foo }}
<a href="{{ url }}">Foo</a>
{{/ foo }}

And there the {{url}} is parsed and a correct link to the pattern is injected. This is currently not working in the node version of patternlab.

hi @bramsmulders now I understand. Thanks for clarifying. I've created #171 to handle this
