<h3 id="what-is-action-view-questionmark">1 What is Action View?</h3><p>Action View and Action Controller are the two major components of Action Pack. In Rails, web requests are handled by Action Pack, which splits the work into a controller part (performing the logic) and a view part (rendering a template). Typically, Action Controller will be concerned with communicating with the database and performing CRUD actions where necessary. Action View is then responsible for compiling the response.</p><p>Action View templates are written using embedded Ruby in tags mingled with HTML. To avoid cluttering the templates with boilerplate code, a number of helper classes provide common behavior for forms, dates, and strings. It's also easy to add new helpers to your application as it evolves.</p><div class="note"><p>Some features of Action View are tied to Active Record, but that doesn't mean Action View depends on Active Record. Action View is an independent package that can be used with any sort of Ruby libraries.</p></div><h3 id="using-action-view-with-rails">2 Using Action View with Rails</h3><p>For each controller there is an associated directory in the <code>app/views</code> directory which holds the template files that make up the views associated with that controller. These files are used to display the view that results from each controller action.</p><p>Let's take a look at what Rails does by default when creating a new resource using the scaffold generator:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
223
|
-
<pre class="brush: plain; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
224
|
-
$ bin/rails generate scaffold article
|
|
225
|
-
[...]
|
|
226
|
-
invoke scaffold_controller
|
|
227
|
-
create app/controllers/articles_controller.rb
|
|
228
|
-
invoke erb
|
|
229
|
-
create app/views/articles
|
|
230
|
-
create app/views/articles/index.html.erb
|
|
231
|
-
create app/views/articles/edit.html.erb
|
|
232
|
-
create app/views/articles/show.html.erb
|
|
233
|
-
create app/views/articles/new.html.erb
|
|
234
|
-
create app/views/articles/_form.html.erb
|
|
235
|
-
[...]
|
|
236
|
-
|
|
237
|
-
</pre>
|
|
238
|
-
</div>
|
|
239
|
-
<p>There is a naming convention for views in Rails. Typically, the views share their name with the associated controller action, as you can see above.
|
|
240
|
-
For example, the index controller action of the <code>articles_controller.rb</code> will use the <code>index.html.erb</code> view file in the <code>app/views/articles</code> directory.
|
|
241
|
-
The complete HTML returned to the client is composed of a combination of this ERB file, a layout template that wraps it, and all the partials that the view may reference. Later on this guide you can find a more detailed documentation of each one of these three components.</p><h3 id="templates,-partials-and-layouts">3 Templates, Partials and Layouts</h3><p>As mentioned before, the final HTML output is a composition of three Rails elements: <code>Templates</code>, <code>Partials</code> and <code>Layouts</code>.
|
|
242
|
-
Below is a brief overview of each one of them.</p><h4 id="templates">3.1 Templates</h4><p>Action View templates can be written in several ways. If the template file has a <code>.erb</code> extension then it uses a mixture of ERB (included in Ruby) and HTML. If the template file has a <code>.builder</code> extension then a fresh instance of <code>Builder::XmlMarkup</code> library is used.</p><p>Rails supports multiple template systems and uses a file extension to distinguish amongst them. For example, an HTML file using the ERB template system will have <code>.html.erb</code> as a file extension.</p><h5 id="erb">3.1.1 ERB</h5><p>Within an ERB template, Ruby code can be included using both <code><% %></code> and <code><%= %></code> tags. The <code><% %></code> tags are used to execute Ruby code that does not return anything, such as conditions, loops or blocks, and the <code><%= %></code> tags are used when you want output.</p><p>Consider the following loop for names:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
243
|
-
<pre class="brush: plain; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
244
|
-
<h1>Names of all the people</h1>
|
|
245
|
-
<% @people.each do |person| %>
|
|
246
|
-
Name: <%= person.name %><br>
|
|
247
|
-
<% end %>
|
|
248
|
-
|
|
249
|
-
</pre>
|
|
250
|
-
</div>
|
|
251
|
-
<p>The loop is set up in regular embedding tags (<code><% %></code>) and the name is written using the output embedding tags (<code><%= %></code>). Note that this is not just a usage suggestion, for regular output functions like <code>print</code> or <code>puts</code> won't work with ERB templates. So this would be wrong:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
252
|
-
<pre class="brush: plain; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
253
|
-
<%# WRONG %>
|
|
254
|
-
Hi, Mr. <% puts "Frodo" %>
|
|
255
|
-
|
|
256
|
-
</pre>
|
|
257
|
-
</div>
|
|
258
|
-
<p>To suppress leading and trailing whitespaces, you can use <code><%-</code> <code>-%></code> interchangeably with <code><%</code> and <code>%></code>.</p><h5 id="builder">3.1.2 Builder</h5><p>Builder templates are a more programmatic alternative to ERB. They are especially useful for generating XML content. An XmlMarkup object named <code>xml</code> is automatically made available to templates with a <code>.builder</code> extension.</p><p>Here are some basic examples:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
259
|
-
<pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
260
|
-
xml.em("emphasized")
|
|
261
|
-
xml.em { xml.b("emph & bold") }
|
|
262
|
-
xml.a("A Link", "href" => "http://rubyonrails.org")
|
|
263
|
-
xml.target("name" => "compile", "option" => "fast")
|
|
264
|
-
|
|
265
|
-
</pre>
|
|
266
|
-
</div>
|
|
267
|
-
<p>which would produce:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
268
|
-
<pre class="brush: xml; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
269
|
-
<em>emphasized</em>
|
|
270
|
-
<em><b>emph &amp; bold</b></em>
|
|
271
|
-
<a href="http://rubyonrails.org">A link</a>
|
|
272
|
-
<target option="fast" name="compile" />

|
-
</pre>
|
|
275
|
-
</div>
|
|
276
|
-
<p>Any method with a block will be treated as an XML markup tag with nested markup in the block. For example, the following:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
277
|
-
<pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
278
|
-
xml.div {
|
|
279
|
-
xml.h1(@person.name)
|
|
280
|
-
xml.p(@person.bio)
|
|
281
|
-
}
|
|
282
|
-
|
|
283
|
-
</pre>
|
|
284
|
-
</div>
|
|
285
|
-
<p>would produce something like:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
286
|
-
<pre class="brush: xml; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|

<h5 id="rendering-collections">3.2.4 Rendering Collections</h5><p>It is very common that a template needs to iterate over a collection and render a sub-template for each of the elements. This pattern has been implemented as a single method that accepts an array and renders a partial for each one of the elements in the array.</p><p>So this example for rendering all the products:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
383
|
-
<pre class="brush: ruby; html-script: true; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|

<% @products.each do |product| %>
|
|
385
|
-
<%= render partial: "product", locals: { product: product } %>
|
|
386
|
-
<% end %>
|
|
387
|
-

388
|
-
</pre>
|
|
389
|
-
</div>
|
|
390
|
-
<p>can be rewritten in a single line:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
391
|
-
<pre class="brush: ruby; html-script: true; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
392
|
-
<%= render partial: "product", collection: @products %>

|
|
394
|
-
</pre>
|
|
395
|
-
</div>
|
|
396
|
-
<p>When a partial is called like this (eg. with a collection), the individual instances of the partial have access to the member of the collection being rendered via a variable named after the partial. In this case, the partial is <code>_product</code>, and within it you can refer to <code>product</code> to get the instance that is being rendered.</p><p>You can use a shorthand syntax for rendering collections. Assuming <code>@products</code> is a collection of <code>Product</code> instances, you can simply write the following to produce the same result:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
397
|
-
<pre class="brush: ruby; html-script: true; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|

400
|
-
</pre>
|
|
401
|
-
</div>
|
|
402
|
-
<p>Rails determines the name of the partial to use by looking at the model name in the collection, <code>Product</code> in this case. In fact, you can even create a heterogeneous collection and render it this way, and Rails will choose the proper partial for each member of the collection.</p><h5 id="spacer-templates">3.2.5 Spacer Templates</h5><p>You can also specify a second partial to be rendered between instances of the main partial by using the <code>:spacer_template</code> option:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
403
|
-
<pre class="brush: ruby; html-script: true; gutter: false; toolbar: false">

<p>Rails will render the <code>_product_ruler</code> partial (with no data passed to it) between each pair of <code>_product</code> partials.</p><h4 id="layouts">3.3 Layouts</h4><p>Layouts can be used to render a common view template around the results of Rails controller actions. Typically, every Rails application has a couple of overall layouts that most pages are rendered within. For example, a site might have a layout for a logged in user, and a layout for the marketing or sales side of the site. The logged in user layout might include top-level navigation that should be present across many controller actions. The sales layout for a SaaS app might include top-level navigation for things like "Pricing" and "Contact Us." You would expect each layout to have a different look and feel. You can read more details about Layouts in the <a href="layouts_and_rendering.html">Layouts and Rendering in Rails</a> guide.</p><h3 id="partial-layouts">4 Partial Layouts</h3><p>Partials can have their own layouts applied to them. These layouts are different than the ones that are specified globally for the entire action, but they work in a similar fashion.</p><p>Let's say we're displaying an article on a page, that should be wrapped in a <code>div</code> for display purposes. First, we'll create a new <code>Article</code>:</p><div class="code_container">

<h4 id="formhelper">6.9 FormHelper</h4><p>Form helpers are designed to make working with models much easier compared to using just standard HTML elements by providing a set of methods for creating forms based on your models. This helper generates the HTML for forms, providing a method for each sort of input (e.g., text, password, select, and so on). When the form is submitted (i.e., when the user hits the submit button or form.submit is called via JavaScript), the form inputs will be bundled into the params object and passed back to the controller.</p><p>There are two types of form helpers: those that specifically work with model attributes and those that don't. This helper deals with those that work with model attributes; to see an example of form helpers that don't work with model attributes, check the ActionView::Helpers::FormTagHelper documentation.</p><p>The core method of this helper, form_for, gives you the ability to create a form for a model instance; for example, let's say that you have a model Person and want to create a new instance of it:</p><div class="code_container">

By default, calling this action will render <code>app/views/articles/show.html.erb</code>. But if you set <code>I18n.locale = :de</code>, then <code>app/views/articles/show.de.html.erb</code> will be rendered instead. If the localized template isn't present, the undecorated version will be used. This means you're not required to provide localized views for all cases, but they will be preferred and used if available.</p><p>You can use the same technique to localize the rescue files in your public directory. For example, setting <code>I18n.locale = :de</code> and creating <code>public/500.de.html</code> and <code>public/404.de.html</code> would allow you to have localized rescue pages.</p><p>Since Rails doesn't restrict the symbols that you use to set I18n.locale, you can leverage this system to display different content depending on anything you like. For example, suppose you have some "expert" users that should see different pages from "normal" users. You could add the following to <code>app/controllers/application.rb</code>:</p><div class="code_container">
