Rails - Mar 2013 - Parent' show view and nested resources - Best practices ?

Hi everybody,

First, sorry for my poor english, I will try to be clear :)

I''m wondering what are the best practices in order to obtain a view
showing
data on a parent object, with sub-tabs, each tab for a nested resource.

Imagine that you have a Contact model. Each contact has :

   -  documents,
   - participations to meetings,
   -  comments (which could be polymorphic)
   -  ...
   

When you access to the show page of the contact, you''d like to see
contact
information at the top of the page, and under these information, a tab-bar, 
each tab for each nested-resource : documents, meetings, comments, ...

Ho do you do this kind of layouts / views ?

A friend explain me that I can use the inherited_resources gem, which is 
really useful to abstract and handle nested_controllers, but I still
don''t
find a *good* solution for the layouts/view.

Thank you by advance

I think no need to use any gem. Its better to you learn how to use nested
resources .

How about each tab Ajax-linking (link_to <...>, :remote => true) to
documents, participants, comments controllers'' respective index
actions,
which render render inline content via Ajax call to a dedicated space
(under "tabs") and doing all the other stuff of marking the correct
tab
"active"?

For example "Documents tab" (not tested, basically a concept): link_to
"Documents", contact_documents_path(@contact), :remote => true

then you''d have documents#index action and documents/index.js.haml
template
that''d populate #tab_content div which is just under your general
Contact
information, as you described; the entry point would be contacts#show
action; you''d assign @contact there.

And you nest the resources something like:

resources :contacts do
  resources :documents
  resources :participants
  resources: comments
end

Just brainstorming, feel free to disregard ;)
