Pages are used as Rails view substitutes and therefore called in a Rails controller action:
app/controllers/some_controller.rb
class SomeController < ApplicationController
include Matestack::Ui::Core::Helper
def overview
render Pages::SomePage
end
end
A Matestack page will in this case be yielded into the Rails layout, unless the Rails layout is disabled in the controller via:layout false
Passing data to pages
Sometimes you want to pass in data from the calling controller action into the page. This works the same way as seen at components:
class SomeController < ActionController::Base
include Matestack::Ui::Core::Helper
def some_page
render SomePage, foo: 'bar', bar: 'baz'
end
end
class SomePage < Matestack::Ui::Page
required :foo
optional :bar
def response
div id: "my-page" do
plain context.foo # "bar"
plain context.bar # "baz"
end
end
end
