Overview

This is the base class from which all rendering systems need to extend.

Example:

class Mack::Rendering::Pdf < Mack::Rendering::Base
  def render
    # do work to render stuff as a PDF
  end
end

Now add this to the list of available render systems:

app_config.mack.rendering_systems << :pdf

You should now be able to do this in your controller:

class MyAwesomeController < Mack::Controller::Base
  def pdf
    render(:pdf => "my_pdf_template")
  end
end
