* only one of partial_name or :as will be available as a local
* `object` is removed
* Simplify _layout_for in most cases.
* Remove <% render :partial do |args| %>
* <% render :partial do %> still works fine
* Call _evaluate_assigns_and_ivars at the two entry points so we don't have to
do a check at every render.
* Make template.render viable without having to go through a wrapper method
* Remove old TemplateHandler#render(template, local_assigns) path so we don't have
to set self.template every time we render a template.
* Move Template rescuing code to Template#render so it gets caught every time.
* Pull in some tests from Pratik that test render @object in ActionView
To discuss: What are the desired semantics (if any) for layouts in a collection. There are no
tests for it at present, and I'm not sure if it's needed at all.
Deprecated on this branch: `object` pointing at the current object in partials. You can still
use the partial name, or use :as to achieve the same thing. This is obviously up for discussion.
* It is not possible to always pre-determine the layout before going to ActionView.
This was *already* broken for render :partial => @object, :layout => true. This is
now handled by overriding render_to_body in layouts.rb and manually injecting the
partial's response. This needs to be done in ActionController since ActionController
knows enough to get _layout_for_option. There is probably a better abstraction here.
* As a result, all partial rendering can correctly restrict their layouts to the mime
type of the rendered partial. This could have previously caused a bug in some edge cases.
* If other layout-like options are added, they might need to add special code for the
case of render :partial. We should try to think of an alternate solution, if possible,
but this works for the cases we know of now.
* TODO: Review ActionController calling render_template for certain partials.
Might we be able to save logic by always delegating to AV's render_partial?
* _render_single_template, which renders a template without layout
* _render_partial_unknown_type, which renders a partial of unknown type
(the entry method for most partial rendering; supports strings, objects, and collections)
* _render_partial_object, which renders a partial for a single object.
* extracted _render_partial_path so it can be used to render the spacer without going
through the public render :partial
* rename _render_partial to _render_partial_unknown_type to reflect that for this call,
we don't know the type.
* Merge _render_partial_with_block and _render_partial_with_layout to _render_partial
* TODO: Check to see if any more logic can be shared
* TODO: See about streamlining block path so we can get rid of @_proc_for_layout
* Remove @exempt_from_layout as it is no longer needed
* remove no longer used _array_like_objects
* _render_content_with_layout renamed to _render_content since layout it optional
* remove check for optional layout before _render_content
ActionView::Template is now completely independent from template
storage, which allows different back ends such as the database.
ActionView::Template's only responsibility is to take in the
template source (passed in from ActionView::Path), compile it,
and render it.
* Decouple from ActionController and ActionMailer
* Bring back localization support.
* Prepare to decouple templates from the filesystem.
* Prepare to decouple localization from ActionView
* Fix ActionMailer to take advantage of ActionView::Path
Resolved all the conflicts since 2.3.0 -> HEAD. Following is a list
of commits that could not be applied cleanly or are obviated with the
abstract_controller refactor. They all need to be revisited to ensure
that fixes made in 2.3 do not reappear in 3.0:
2259ecf368
AR not available
* This will be reimplemented with ActionORM or equivalent
06182ea02e
implicitly rendering a js response should not use the default layout
[#1844 state:resolved]
* This will be handled generically
893e9eb995
Improve view rendering performance in development mode and reinstate
template recompiling in production [#1909 state:resolved]
* We will need to reimplement rails-dev-boost on top of the refactor;
the changes here are very implementation specific and cannot be
cleanly applied. The following commits are implicated:
199e750d463942cb406ef8ea9f85d4e3b166aab3ae9f258e0344423126c60cb020b4d6
workaround for picking layouts based on wrong view_paths
[#1974 state:resolved]
* The specifics of this commit no longer apply. Since it is a two-line
commit, we will reimplement this change.
8c5cc66a83
make action_controller/layouts pick templates from the current instance's
view_paths instead of the class view_paths [#1974 state:resolved]
* This does not apply at all. It should be trivial to apply the feature
to the reimplemented ActionController::Base.
87e8b16246
fix HTML fallback for explicit templates [#2052 state:resolved]
* There were a number of patches related to this that simply compounded
each other. Basically none of them apply cleanly, and the underlying
issue needs to be revisited. After discussing the underlying problem
with Koz, we will defer these fixes for further discussion.
