Edge Rails gets layouts for partials
Edge Rails picked up a new feature today we’ve often longed for at Collective Idea. Partials can have a layout:
<%= render :partial => "user", :layout => "admin", :collection => @users %>
This would wrap the user partial with the admin layout, which in this example adds an edit link for the admin user:
<% content_tag_for :li, user do %>
<%= yield %>
<%= link_to 'Edit', edit_user_path(user) %>
<% end %>
</filter:jsode>
Another cool feature in this patch is the ability to add a layout to any block in a template, for those one-off situations, or to just tidy up repeated markup:
<source:erb>
<% render :layout => "admin", :locals => { :user => owner } do %>
<%= render :partial => "user", :collection => @users %>
(owner)
<% end %>
