Instance Method Details

#render(view, *args) ⇒ String

Note:

If the string passed to the view parameter is an existing file it will be used as the ERB template. Otherwise the string will be parsed as ERB.

Note:

Optionally the view output can be suppressed via setting output to false. The view will be returned as a string allowing later output e.g. render(‘view’, {:data => data}, false)

Note:

In the event that you want to suppress output and not provide any data you may substitute data for output in the parameter list e.g. render(‘view’, false)

Renders a view, passing it the given data. In the ERB template the hash variables will be available as instance variables e.g. @view_variable
