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

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/.

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

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

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

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

Hello, Maybe this is super-trivial... I need to have a list of links on the left hand side of my application, for *every* single page. So, I''ve created a layout called "main" (main.rhtml) under view/layouts, and included >layout "main"< in pretty all of my controllers. main.rhtml has, amongst all the other HTML stuff: <%= render_component

I''m calling render_component in a helper. render_component :controller => target_controller, :action => "show", :id => target_id This works fine, except that passing the id in :params didn''t work and I had to pass in an explicit :id parameter to get the target controller to override the id - is that documented anywhere? That''s not my question. My

ok, i''ve done a render_component(:controller => "user", :action => "user_menu"); user_menu checks for session id, if does not exist, render_component(:controller => "user", :action => "login") [all of this is working fine, thanks]. when i try to login, the form action goes to login_user, which tries to login via the User model and

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

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.

I have a pretty standard partial for my sidebar that I want to display the login form etc if the user is not logged in and if they are then display the relevant links. As far as I can tell, calling render :partial does not trigger methods in the controller class. So how do I get application data into the partial. The partial is invoked by the layout, which doesn''t have access to

I have an application that worked fine, but after the recent updates has broken in some calls to render_component from views. I might be missing something but as far as I remember Rails updates is the only thing I''ve done in between. See the log: *** START LOG SNIPPET Start rendering component ({:params=> {:center_id=>10, :id=>25},

Hi all, Any help is appreciated. I used the ajax scaffold generator to make 3 scaffoldings. Then I put them together as components in a combined layout and created a master controller, which happens to be named "dataentry''. That works fine. Within each of the components, I was able to set up links that paginate and update the div (for the component) with correctly paginated

Using Rails 1.1.2 and ruby 1.8.4 I''m having a weird issue with the flash when using render_component for an action inside different controller than the one from which you render. I''m passing an object via flash across a couple of actions (new and create) behind the scenes using flash.keep(:object). It works fine if the component I''m rendering is in the same

Hi All, Silly newb question. Is there a reason why :layout is unimplemented in render_component() ? I''m looking at a situation where that would *seem* to be the right answer. Are there any patches available to add this? JK
