Inserting post-list directive into template based shortcode

[JakubRakus]

I have the following situation:

I've created a template based shortcode, say my_short.tmpl in /shortcodes. This works fine, I can use it in rst files using {{% my_short %}}.

I've also created customized post_list_directive.tmpl in /themes/custom/assets/templates. This also works fine when I use

.. post-list::
   :stop: 3

in my rst files.

I'd like to insert my customized post-list into my shortcode template, preferably with ability to pass stop parameter to post-list from parameters of the shortcode, say {{% my_short stop=3 %}}.

Is this possible? I've searched through docs but didn't find any suggestions how to invoke a directive like post-list from shortcode tmpl file.

post-list also works as a shortcode, but I’m not sure if we support nesting shortcodes.

It's not good news :( So I assume I have to make some ugly workaround, and paste my shortcode into rst file as a two part raw html and post-list directive between these two parts...

If there are any 'better' solutions I'll submit feature request for nested shortcodes.

There is no reason why nested shortcodes would not work except "never thought of it"

So, what is the proper syntax of shortcode inside tmpl file?
