An action is defined as a public method on the controller, which will automatically be # made accessible to the web-server through a mod_rewrite mapping. A sample controller could look like this: # # class GuestBookController < ActionController::Base # def index # @entries = Entry.find_all # end # # def sign # Entry.create(@params["entry"]) # redirect_to :action => "index" # end # end # # GuestBookController.template_root = "templates/" # GuestBookController.process_cgi # # All actions assume that you want to render a template matching the name of the action at the end of the performance # unless you tell it otherwise. The index action complies with this assumption, so after populating the @entries instance # variable, the GuestBookController will render "templates/guestbook/index.rhtml". # # Unlike index, the sign action isn't interested in rendering a template. So after performing its main purpose (creating a # new entry in the guest book), it sheds the rendering assumption and initiates a redirect instead. This redirect works by # returning an external "302 Moved" HTTP response that takes the user to the index action. # # The index and sign represent the two basic action archetypes used in Action Controllers. Get-and-show and do-and-redirect. # Most actions are variations of these themes. # # Also note that it's the final call to process_cgi that actually initiates the action performance. It will extract # request and response objects from the CGI # # When Action Pack is used inside of Rails, the template_root is automatically configured and you don't need to call process_cgi # yourself. # # == Requests # # Requests are processed by the Action Controller framework by extracting the value of the "action" key in the request parameters. # This value should hold the name of the action to be performed. Once the action has been identified, the remaining # request parameters, the session (if one is available), and the full request with all the http headers are made available to # the action through instance variables. Then the action is performed. # # The full request object is available with the request accessor and is primarily used to query for http headers. These queries # are made by accessing the environment hash, like this: # # def hello_ip # location = request.env["REMOTE_IP"] # render_text "Hello stranger from #{location}" # end # # == Parameters # # All request parameters whether they come from a GET or POST request, or from the URL, are available through the params hash. # So an action that was performed through /weblog/list?category=All&limit=5 will include { "category" => "All", "limit" => 5 } # in params. # # It's also possible to construct multi-dimensional parameter hashes by specifying keys using brackets, such as: # # # # # A request stemming from a form holding these inputs will include { "post" => { "name" => "david", "address" => "hyacintvej" } }. # If the address input had been named "post[address][street]", the params would have included # { "post" => { "address" => { "street" => "hyacintvej" } } }. There's no limit to the depth of the nesting. # # == Sessions # # Sessions allows you to store objects in memory between requests. This is useful for objects that are not yet ready to be persisted, # such as a Signup object constructed in a multi-paged process, or objects that don't change much and are needed all the time, such # as a User object for a system that requires login. The session should not be used, however, as a cache for objects where it's likely # they could be changed unknowingly. It's usually too much work to keep it all synchronized -- something databases already excel at. # # You can place objects in the session by using the session hash accessor: # # session[:person] = Person.authenticate(user_name, password) # # And retrieved again through the same hash: # # Hello #{session[:person]} # # Any object can be placed in the session (as long as it can be Marshalled). But remember that 1000 active sessions each storing a # 50kb object could lead to a 50MB memory overhead. In other words, think carefully about size and caching before resorting to the use # of the session. # # For removing objects from the session, you can either assign a single key to nil, like session[:person] = nil, or you can # remove the entire session with reset_session. # # == Responses # # Each action results in a response, which holds the headers and document to be sent to the user's browser. The actual response # object is generated automatically through the use of renders and redirects, so it's normally nothing you'll need to be concerned about. # # == Renders # # Action Controller sends content to the user by using one of five rendering methods. The most versatile and common is the rendering # of a template. Included in the Action Pack is the Action View, which enables rendering of ERb templates. It's automatically configured. # The controller passes objects to the view by assigning instance variables: # # def show # @post = Post.find(params[:id]) # end # # Which are then automatically available to the view: # # Title: <%= @post.title %> # # You don't have to rely on the automated rendering. Especially actions that could result in the rendering of different templates will use # the manual rendering methods: # # def search # @results = Search.find(params[:query]) # case @results # when 0 then render :action=> "no_results" # when 1 then render :action=> "show" # when 2..10 then render :action=> "show_many" # end # end # # Read more about writing ERb and Builder templates in link:classes/ActionView/Base.html. # # == Redirects # # Redirecting is what actions that update the model do when they're done. The save_post method shouldn't be responsible for also # showing the post once it's saved -- that's the job for show_post. So once save_post has completed its business, it'll # redirect to show_post. All redirects are external, which means that when the user refreshes his browser, it's not going to save # the post again, but rather just show it one more time. # # This sounds fairly simple, but the redirection is complicated by the quest for a phenomenon known as "pretty urls". Instead of accepting # the dreadful beings that is "weblog_controller?action=show&post_id=5", Action Controller goes out of its way to represent the former as # "/weblog/show/5". And this is even the simple case. As an example of a more advanced pretty url consider # "/library/books/ISBN/0743536703/show", which can be mapped to books_controller?action=show&type=ISBN&id=0743536703. # # Redirects work by rewriting the URL of the current action. So if the show action was called by "/library/books/ISBN/0743536703/show", # we can redirect to an edit action simply by doing redirect_to(:action => "edit"), which could throw the user to # "/library/books/ISBN/0743536703/edit". Naturally, you'll need to setup the routes configuration file to point to the proper controller # and action in the first place, but once you have, it can be rewritten with ease. # # Let's consider a bunch of examples on how to go from "/clients/37signals/basecamp/project/dash" to somewhere else: # # redirect_to(:action => "edit") => # /clients/37signals/basecamp/project/dash # # redirect_to(:client_name => "nextangle", :project_name => "rails") => # /clients/nextangle/rails/project/dash # # Those redirects happen under the configuration of: # # map.connect 'clients/:client_name/:project_name/:controller/:action' # # == Calling multiple redirects or renders # # An action should conclude by a single render or redirect. Attempting to try to do either again will result in a DoubleRenderError: # # def do_something # redirect_to :action => "elsewhere" # render :action => "overthere" # raises DoubleRenderError # end # # If you need to redirect on the condition of something, then be sure to add "and return" to halt execution. # # def do_something # redirect_to(:action => "elsewhere") and return if monkeys.nil? # render :action => "overthere" # won't be called unless monkeys is nil # end # # == Environments # # Action Controller works out of the box with CGI, FastCGI, and mod_ruby.

For example, # url_for :controller => 'posts', :action => 'show', :id => 10, :anchor => 'comments' # will produce "/posts/show/10#comments". # * :only_path -- if true, returns the absolute URL (omitting the protocol, host name, and port) # * :trailing_slash -- if true, adds a trailing slash, as in "/archive/2005/". Note that this # is currently not recommended since it breaks caching. # * :host -- overrides the default (current) host if provided # * :protocol -- overrides the default (current) protocol if provided # # The URL is generated from the remaining keys in the hash. A URL contains two key parts: the and a query string. # Routes composes a query string as the key/value pairs not included in the . # # The default Routes setup supports a typical Rails path of "controller/action/id" where action and id are optional, with # action defaulting to 'index' when not given. Here are some typical url_for statements and their corresponding URLs: #   # url_for :controller => 'posts', :action => 'recent' # => 'proto://host.com/posts/recent' # url_for :controller => 'posts', :action => 'index' # => 'proto://host.com/posts' # url_for :controller => 'posts', :action => 'show', :id => 10 # => 'proto://host.com/posts/show/10' # # When generating a new URL, missing values may be filled in from the current request's parameters. For example, # url_for :action => 'some_action' will retain the current controller, as expected. This behavior extends to # other parameters, including :controller, :id, and any other parameters that are placed into a Route's # path. #   # The URL helpers such as url_for have a limited form of memory: when generating a new URL, they can look for # missing values in the current request's parameters. Routes attempts to guess when a value should and should not be # taken from the defaults. There are a few simple rules on how this is performed: # # * If the controller name begins with a slash, no defaults are used: url_for :controller => '/home' # * If the controller changes, the action will default to index unless provided # # The final rule is applied while the URL is being generated and is best illustrated by an example. Let us consider the # route given by map.connect 'people/:last/:first/:action', :action => 'bio', :controller => 'people'. # # Suppose that the current URL is "people/hh/david/contacts". Let's consider a few different cases URLs which are generated # from this page. # # * url_for :action => 'bio' -- During the generation of this URL, default values will be used for the first and # last components, and the action shall change. The generated URL will be, "people/hh/david/bio". # * url_for :first => 'davids-little-brother' This generates the URL 'people/hh/davids-little-brother' -- note # that this URL leaves out the assumed action of 'bio'. # # However, you might ask why the action from the current request, 'contacts', isn't carried over into the new URL. The # answer has to do with the order in which the parameters appear in the generated path. In a nutshell, since the # value that appears in the slot for :first is not equal to default value for :first we stop using # defaults. On it's own, this rule can account for much of the typical Rails URL behavior. #   # Although a convienence, defaults can occasionaly get in your way. In some cases a default persists longer than desired. # The default may be cleared by adding :name => nil to url_for's options. # This is often required when writing form helpers, since the defaults in play may vary greatly depending upon where the # helper is used from. The following line will redirect to PostController's default action, regardless of the page it is # displayed on: # # url_for :controller => 'posts', :action => nil # # If you explicitly want to create a URL that's almost the same as the current URL, you can do so using the # :overwrite_params options. Say for your posts you have different views for showing and printing them. # Then, in the show view, you get the URL for the print view like this # # url_for :overwrite_params => { :action => 'print' } # # This takes the current URL as is and only exchanges the action. In contrast, url_for :action => 'print' # would have slashed-off the path components are the changed action. def url_for(options = {}, *parameters_for_method_reference) #:doc: case options when String then options when Symbol then send(options, *parameters_for_method_reference) when Hash then @url.rewrite(rewrite_options(options)) end end # Converts the class name from something like "OneModule::TwoModule::NeatController" to "NeatController". def controller_class_name self.class.controller_class_name end # Converts the class name from something like "OneModule::TwoModule::NeatController" to "neat". def controller_name self.class.controller_name end protected # Renders the content that'll be returned to the browser as the response body. This can just be as regular text, but is # more often the compilation of a template. # # === Rendering an action # # Action rendering is the most common form and the type used automatically by Action Controller when nothing else is # specified. By default, actions are rendered within the current layout (if one exists). # # # Renders the template for the action "goal" within the current controller # render :action => "goal" # # # Renders the template for the action "short_goal" within the current controller, # # but without the current active layout # render :action => "short_goal", :layout => false # # # Renders the template for the action "long_goal" within the current controller, # # but with a custom layout # render :action => "long_goal", :layout => "spectacular" # # _Deprecation_ _notice_: This used to have the signatures render_action("action", status = 200), # render_without_layout("controller/action", status = 200), and # render_with_layout("controller/action", status = 200, layout). # # === Rendering partials # # Partial rendering is most commonly used together with Ajax calls that only updates one or a few elements on a page # without reloading. Rendering of partials from the controller makes it possible to use the same partial template in # both the full-page rendering (by calling it from within the template) and when sub-page updates happen (from the # controller action responding to Ajax calls). By default, the current layout is not used. # # # Renders the partial located at app/views/controller/_win.r(html|xml) # render :partial => "win" # # # Renders the partial with a status code of 500 (internal error) # render :partial => "broken", :status => 500 # # # Renders the same partial but also makes a local variable available to it # render :partial => "win", :locals => { :name => "david" } # # # Renders a collection of the same partial by making each element of @wins available through # # the local variable "win" as it builds the complete response # render :partial => "win", :collection => @wins # # # Renders the same collection of partials, but also renders the win_divider partial in between # # each win partial. # render :partial => "win", :collection => @wins, :spacer_template => "win_divider" # # _Deprecation_ _notice_: This used to have the signatures # render_partial(partial_path = default_template_name, object = nil, local_assigns = {}) and # render_partial_collection(partial_name, collection, partial_spacer_template = nil, local_assigns = {}). # # === Rendering a file # # File rendering works just like action rendering except that it takes a path relative to the template root or an absolute # path if use_full_path is passed as true. The current layout is not applied automatically. # # # Renders the template located in [TEMPLATE_ROOT]/weblog/show.r(html|xml) (in Rails, app/views/weblog/show.rhtml) # render :file => "weblog/show" # # # Renders the template located in /path/to/some/template.r(html|xml) # render :file => "/path/to/some/template", :use_full_path => false # # # Renders the same template within the current layout, but with a 404 status code # render :file => "/path/to/some/template", :use_full_path => false, :layout => true, :status => 404 # # _Deprecation_ _notice_: This used to have the signature render_file(path, status = 200) # # === Rendering text # # Rendering of text is usually used for tests or for rendering prepared content, such as a cache. By default, text # rendering is not done within the active layout. # # # Renders the clear text "hello world" with status code 200 # render :text => "hello world!" # # # Renders the clear text "Explosion!" with status code 500 # render :text => "Explosion!", :status => 500 # # # Renders the clear text "Hi there!" within the current active layout (if one exists) # render :text => "Explosion!", :layout => true # # # Renders the clear text "Hi there!" within the the layout # # placed in "app/views/layouts/special.r(html|xml)" # render :text => "Explosion!", :layout => "special" # # _Deprecation_ _notice_: This used to have the signature render_text("text", status = 200) # # === Rendering an inline template # # Rendering of an inline template works as a cross between text and action rendering where the source for the template # is supplied inline, like text, but its interpreted with ERb or Builder, like action. By default, ERb is used for rendering # and the current layout is not used. # # # Renders "hello, hello, hello, again" # render :inline => "<%= 'hello, ' * 3 + 'again' %>" # # # Renders "
