I'm trying to pass parameters to an erb view using Ruby and Sinatra.
For example, I can do:
get '/hello/:name' do
"Hello #{params[:name]}!"
end
How do I pass :name
to the view?
get '/hello/:name' do
erb :hello
end
And how do I read the parameters inside view/hello.erb?
Thanks!
just pass the :locals to the erb() in your routes:
get '/hello/:name' do
erb :hello, :locals => {:name => params[:name]}
end
and then just use it in the views/hello.erb:
Hello <%= name %>
(tested on sinatra 1.2.6)
Not sure if this is the best way, but it worked:
get '/hello/:name' do
@name = params[:name]
erb :hello
end
Then, I can access :name
in hello.erb using the variable @name
get '/hello/:name' do
"Hello #{params[:name]}!"
end
You cannot do this in routes.
You want to set the params in the controller.
app/controllers/some_controller.rb
def index
params[:name] = "Codeglot"
params[:name] = "iPhone"
params[:name] = "Mac Book"
end
app/views/index.html.erb
<%= params[:name] %>
<%= params[:phone] %>
<%= params[:computer] %>
