Sorry for the slightly noobish question, as I am writing my first rails app.
I get the idea of the layout view, but if you are using them, is there any way to include a view specific js or css file? For example, I have layouts/products.html.erb
, and for products/edit.html.erb
I want products_edit.css
, but I don't want that css for all product views, what is the best practice to accomplish that?
If you have a generic edit.css file, I would suggest an if in your layout
<%= stylesheet_link_tag 'edit' if params[:action] == 'edit' %>
Otherwise you can use content_for
with a yield
to add additional tags into the head.
layout.html.erb
<head> ... <%= yield(:header) if @content_for_header %> </head>
products/edit.html.erb
<% content_for :header do -%> <%= stylesheet_link_tag 'edit_product' %> <% end -%>
You can add a stylesheet tag inside the head tag of the layout by doing something like this:
layouts/products.html.erb:
<head> ... <%= yield :css %> ... </head>
products/edit.html.erb
<% content_for :css do stylesheet_link_tag 'products_edit' end %>
