Will add data to record cookie. Record cookie is used to preload some data on next create action. Create action will look for cookies and if found initialize fields on form with matching name to value found in cookie data.

Example:

 kukis = {'dc_page.dc_design_id' => @page.dc_design_id,
          'dc_page.dc_menu_id' => @page.menu_id)
dc_add2_record_cookie(kukis)

  @parent.cookies[:record] = Marshal.dump(kukis)
end

#dc_big_table(key) ⇒ Object

#dc_render(renderer, opts = {}) ⇒ Object

This is main method used for render parts of design into final HTML document.

Parameters:

renderer

String or Symbol. Class name (in lowercase) that will be used to render final HTML code.

If class name is provided without ‘_renderer’ suffix it will be added automatically.

When renderer has value :part, it is a shortcut for dc_render_design_part method which is used to draw parts of layout on design.

opts

Hash. Additional options that are passed to method. Options are merged with

options set on site, design, page and passed to renderer object.

Example:

<%= dc_render(:dc_page, method: 'view', category: 'news') %>

#dc_render_design_part(part) ⇒ Object

Used for designs with lots of common code and one (or more) part which differs. Point is to define design once and replace some parts of design dinamically. Design may be defined in site and design doc defines only parts that vary from page to page.

Example: As used in design.

<%= dc_render_design_part(@main) %>

main variable is defined in design body for example:

@main = Proc.new {render partial: 'parts/home'}

This helper is replacement dc_render_from_site method which will soon be deprecated.

#dc_render_from_site(opts = {}) ⇒ Object

Used for designs with lots of common code and one (or more) part which differs. It will simply replace anchor code with value of variable.

Example: As used in design. Backslashing < and % is important <%

<% part = "<div  class='some-class'>\<\%= dc_render(:my_renderer, method: 'render_method') \%\></div>" %>
<%= dc_replace_in_design(piece: 'piece_name', replace: '[main]', with: part) %>

variable when called from renderer.

policy_id

Document or documents policy_id field value required to view data. Method will automatically

check if parameter send has policy_id field defined and use value of that field.
