Rails render partial with block
- by brad
I'm trying to re-use an html component that i've written that provides panel styling. Something like:
<div class="v-panel">
<div class="v-panel-tr"></div>
<h3>Some Title</h3>
<div class="v-panel-c">
.. content goes here
</div>
<div class="v-panel-b"><div class="v-panel-br"></div><div class="v-panel-bl"></div></div>
</div>
So I see that render takes a block. I figured then I could do something like this:
# /shared/_panel.html.erb
<div class="v-panel">
<div class="v-panel-tr"></div>
<h3><%= title %></h3>
<div class="v-panel-c">
<%= yield %>
</div>
<div class="v-panel-b"><div class="v-panel-br"></div><div class="v-panel-bl"></div></div>
</div>
And I want to do something like:
#some html view
<%= render :partial => '/shared/panel', :locals =>{:title => "Some Title"} do %>
<p>Here is some content to be rendered inside the panel</p>
<% end %>
Unfortunately this doesn't work with this error:
ActionView::TemplateError (/Users/bradrobertson/Repos/VeloUltralite/source/trunk/app/views/sessions/new.html.erb:1: , unexpected tRPAREN
old_output_buffer = output_buffer;;@output_buffer = ''; __in_erb_template=true ; @output_buffer.concat(( render :partial => '/shared/panel', :locals => {:title => "Welcome"} do ).to_s)
on line #1 of app/views/sessions/new.html.erb:
1: <%= render :partial => '/shared/panel', :locals => {:title => "Welcome"} do -%>
...
So it doesn't like the = obviously with a block, but if I remove it, then it just doesn't output anything.
Does anyone know how to do what I'm trying to achieve here? I'd like to re-use this panel html in many places on my site.
