I'm having some trouble updating my gem, poirot, to work properly with Rails 3.1. Before Rails 3.1 I had a template handler that was inheriting from ActionView::Template::Handler and including ActionView::Template::Handlers::Compilable. This worked fine but in Rails 3.1 I was getting deprecation warnings for using these.
I modified my handler so that it now just provides a call method and have removed both ActionView::Template::Handlers::Compilable & ActionView::Template::Handler. Rendering the templates seems to work fine but I now have no access to the view context.
I need access to a view context because I'm rendering mustache templates and what to be able to create a view object that exposes the objects available in the view to the template, specifically any instance variables set in the controller and any locals passed when rendering a partial.
currently my code looks like this:
module Poirot class Handler
attr_reader :template
def initialize(template) @template = template end
def self.call(template, *args) self.new(template).call end
def call view_path = "#{template.virtual_path}_view" abs_view_path = Rails.root.join('app/views', view_path) view_class = begin view_path.classify.constantize rescue NameError => e Poirot::View end "#{view_class}.new(self, '#{template.source.gsub(/'/, "\\\ \'")}').render.html_safe" end end end
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
