Question

I have the answer for the Rails 2.X but not for Rails 3. How can I read the name of a current layout rendered inside a view.

My Rails2 question: Rails Layout name inside view

Thx.

Answer 1

in rails 5

This works for me:

def current_layout
  layout = controller.class.send(:_layout)
  if layout.nil?
    default_layout
  elsif layout.instance_of? String or layout.instance_of? Symbol
    layout
  else
    File.basename(layout.identifier).split('.').first
  end
end
