Use stimulus from child view (partials)

[renzodiaz]

Just want to ask if there is a way to execute an action from <%= render partial: 'child' %>, for example when you are building a sidebar that hides and shows you usually use partials instead putting all the code in the layout.

Not entirely following your question, but you can use Stimulus controllers anywhere as they're just applied to your HTML. Post some more details if you have an example you're trying to figure out how to implement. 👍

I'm using Jumpstart Pro with tailwind, what I'm using a dashboard layout from tailwind components, what happens is that I have my sidebar menu in a partial component but in mobile the button to open the sidebar menu is under other partial called page_header when I click on that button it throws an error in the console Error: Missing target element "slideover.overlay".

Stimulus will require all the targets be in the HTML, so you can't dynamically load those.

You didn't include any code that uses Stimulus, so not a lot I can help with there.

Yeah, that's what happens all my targets and action should be in the same context, I'll change my layout. Thanks Chris.

Cool, let me know if that works. 👍
