What is the difference between the render(:partial => ''article'') and render_component? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I see from http://rubyonrails.org/api/classes/ActionController/Components.html that is possible to pass paramaters to a component. I don''t understand the exact syntax. I''m trying: @master_id = @params[''master_id''] in the components controller but it is not working. ==== Details: In my calling view I have: <%= h(@opportunity.id) %> <div

I''m stumped on what seems like should be a fairly easy thing, so I hope someone can point out my error. I wanted to show a few things on every page, so I added an application level template in "layouts". I added my styles in there, and put the controller name and action name into the TITLE tag for my own reference. So far so good - works like expected. Then I wanted to

I am trying set up a rails app that utilizes components. I need to be able to pass some state (a bunch of name value pairs) from the Main controller to the component. Is there any way to pass this state info using render_component? Regards -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I''m trying to write a sidebar menu with dynamic menus, and to do so I would like to define a list of menus to display within my sidebar component controller code and pass that list to the component display view, like so: # menu_controller.rb class Sidebar::MenuController < ActionController::Base uses_component_template_root @menus = %w{admin user help} def display

Hi, Is there a way to call a controller/action pair from another controller as well as render the view for that pair? I have tried using "render ''ctrl/action''" and that works, but the controller code isn''t called (only the view is rendered). A redirect_to isn''t desirable either as I want the resulting content to be rendered in the current

I''m trying now to do "sudo fixrbconfig" in the terminal, and I get this: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.0/ruby.h does not exist.

Cheers, I''ve stumbled over a bug with 1.0 and ActiveRecord store for session while migrating from pstore sessions. I created the table with `rake create_sessions_table` and set `config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store` in environment.rb. Everything runs fine except that the flash messages will not be cleared. I get the same message everytime on everypage I

Maybe I''m missing the point? Lets take for example albums of pictures. If I have a scaffold for each, and I''m showing an album, what if I want to list all of the pictures that are in the album? Surely, I''d want to call the List action in the picture controller. render_component would do this perfectly. But we''re told not to use render_component. So

My code is something like this. class FirstController < ApplicationController def foo #some processing render (:controller => ''second'', :action => ''index'') end end I tried using both render and redirect but it seems it''s not possible to send the control from within a controller to some other controller. Am I missing something

I have an application that worked fine, but after the recent updates has broken in some calls to render_component from views.

Hello, what is the preferred way to do this... I have 2 controllers. Each has an index action. Now I want to include the rendered index view from TwoController in the index view of OneController. But a render :partial doesn''t execute the TwoController index action which sets variables for its index view. So maybe you can give me a short example how to do it. Thank you Markus

I was wondering if rails had any means of restricting access to an action in a controller (like they can''t type in url.com/cont/action, that would throw an error). The thing is I would like to be able to access this method/action through a call to render_component, so therefore, I don''t think private methods will work. So basically I am looking for something that cannot be

I''ve got a view template that contains this: <%= render_component(:controller => ''reviews'', :action => ''show'', :params => { ''id'' => review.id }) %> In Rails 0.10.0 this worked just fine. After I upgraded to 0.10.1 I get this error: ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in

I am getting an undefined method error but the model is accessible

Hi, I''m relatively new to ruby and rails. I would like to have a sidebar component call one of several other constituent components. I''ve run into some problems, and so I''ve pruned things back to a relatively simple case. I have a sidebar component. Renders great. In it''s layout, I call render_component for another component I would like in the sidebar.
