View Paths
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
In case, you want to modify the default view path of a controller, you could either prepend or append to the view path, based on the need of looking it up before or after.
|
||||
When rendering the view for a request, the controller needs to resolve where to find each of the directories are located.
|
||||
|
||||
We are able to modify the order these locations are resolved by using `prepend_view_path` and `append_view_path`.
|
||||
|
||||
This allows us to add new paths to the beginning or end of the list used to resolve these paths.
|
||||
|
||||
### Prepend view path
|
||||
|
||||
Example: Change view paths for different sub-domains. Prepend to the view path by doing
|
||||
This can be helpful for example, when we want to prepend a different directory for subdomains.
|
||||
|
||||
We can do this by using:
|
||||
|
||||
```prepend_view_path "app/views/#{request.subdomain}"```
|
||||
|
||||
After this, views will be looked up in this order ```[~/rails_app/app/views/<subdomain>, ~/rails_app/app/views]```
|
||||
Then our list becomes something like:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[
|
||||
~/rails_app/app/views/<subdomain>,
|
||||
~/rails_app/app/views,
|
||||
# ...
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will put the subdomain path at the beginning of the list.
|
||||
|
||||
### Append view path
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, to append to the view paths you would do it with
|
||||
Similarly, we can append paths:
|
||||
|
||||
```append_view_path "app/views/direct"```.
|
||||
|
||||
This would add ```app/views/direct``` and the end of lookup paths for views.
|
||||
This will add ```app/views/direct``` and the end of lookup paths for views.
