Update Try rack-server-pages instead (more features/more docs/same aproach)
Ruby Hypertext Refinement -- the ease of PHP with the elegance of Ruby
Install
sudo gem install rhr
Usage
echo 'Hello <%= params["name"] || "RHR" %>' > index.erb
rhr server
--> http://localhost:3000
--> http://localhost:3000/index.erb?name=World
- Supports Erb, Haml, Liquid, ... everything
- Does not serve Rakefile / Gemfile / Gemfile.lock + everything starting with
_or.
Layouting
Put a _layout. file into the root of the project.
All pages will be rendered in the yield.
<html>
<head>
<title>Amazing</title>
</head>
<body><%= yield %></body>
</html>
Helpers
Put a helpers.rb file into the project root:
module Helpers
def foo
'bar'
end
end
You can now use the foo method in the view:
<div><%= foo %></div>
TODO (fork!)
- do not use layout if view does something like
no_layout - add helpers like link_to / tag / form
- move params and request to the View
- escape html in params <-> xss
