module Rendering
# Returns the result of a render that's dictated by the options hash. The primary options are:
#
# * :partial - See ActionView::Partials.
# * :update - Calls update_page with the block given.
# * :file - Renders an explicit template file (this used to be the old default), add :locals to pass in those.
# * :inline - Renders an inline template similar to how it's done in the controller.
# * :text - Renders the text passed in out.
#
# If no options hash is passed or :update specified, the default is to render a partial and use the second parameter
# as the locals hash.

# You can think of a layout as a method that is called with a block. _layout_for
# returns the contents that are yielded to the layout. If the user calls yield
# :some_name, the block, by default, returns content_for(:some_name). If the user
# calls yield, the default block returns content_for(:layout).
#
# The user can override this default by passing a block to the layout.
#
# ==== Example
#
# # The template
# <% render :layout => "my_layout" do %>Content<% end %>
#
# # The layout
# <% yield %>
#
# In this case, instead of the default block, which would return content_for(:layout),
# this method returns the block that was passed in to render layout, and the response
# would be Content.
#
# Finally, the block can take block arguments, which can be passed in by yield.
#
# ==== Example
#
# # The template
# <% render :layout => "my_layout" do |customer| %>Hello <%= customer.name %><% end %>
#
# # The layout
# <% yield Struct.new(:name).new("David") %>
#
# In this case, the layout would receive the block passed into render :layout,
# and the Struct specified in the layout would be passed into the block. The result
# would be Hello David.
