Is it possible to read a string from a text data field and render it as a layout?
If I use this, it looks for a file 1.html.erb under layouts:
layout: '1'
648
From the controller's point of view, there are three ways to create an HTTP response: Call render to create a full response to send back to the browser. Call redirect_to to send an HTTP redirect status code to the browser. Call head to create a response consisting solely of HTTP headers to send back to the browser.
By default, if you use the :text option, the text is rendered without using the current layout. If you want Rails to put the text into the current layout, you need to add the layout: true option.
From http://www.tutorialspoint.com/ruby-on-rails/rails-layouts.htm : A layout defines the surroundings of an HTML page. It's the place to define common look and feel of your final output. Layout files reside in app/views/layouts. Template is a general term for the view files.
Rails provides us great functionality for managing layouts in a web application. The layouts removes code duplication in view layer. You are able to slice all your application pages to blocks such as header, footer, sidebar, body and etc.
You can pass the name of a layout in the call to render
def show
@team = Team.find_by name: 'Red Sox'
render action: :show, layout: @team.preferred_layout
end
