Layouts

Merges share_layouts and nested_layouts, making the whole layout adventure a lot more enjoyable

Share Layouts

Introduction

Allows Rails controllers/actions to use Radiant layouts as their "layout". content_for blocks are mapped to page parts, with the exception of :title and :breadcrumbs, which map to their specific default tags. The default content, or @content_for_layout, is mapped to the 'body' part.

Inside a controller Controller

SomeController < SiteController
  radiant_layout 'Layout name'

# or

  radiant_layout { |controller| c.action_name == "index" ? "main" : "alt" }

# and

  def delete
    @radiant_layout = 'delete'
  end
  
end

radiant_layout takes the same options as the built-in layout. To specifically override the Radiant layout and use a standard Rails one use :layout => "mine", or :layout => false for no layout, as options to render.

To choose a different Radiant layout, set the @radiant_layout instance variable to the name of a Radiant layout in your controller or view.

Nested Layouts

Introduction

Nested Layouts enables reuse of a top-level "master" layout (one that contains your tags and the overall structure/wrapper of your site) for several different "nested" layouts (i.e. a one-column layout and a two-column layout). Keep your layouts DRY!

A simple example is of the following wrapper and page layout

<!-- Application Layout -->
<!html>
  <body class="<r:layout />">
    <r:content_for_layout />
  </body>
</html>

<!-- Page Layout -->
<r:inside_layout name='Application'>
  <h1>Hi</h1>
</r:inside_layout>

This would render the following if Page Layout was called

<!html>
  <body class="<r:layout />">
    <h1>Hi</h1>
  </body>
</html>

Haml Layouts

http://haml-lang.com/

Introduction

Write your layouts and radius tags in haml, with support for nested layouts and radius attributes

// Parent Layout - with content/type set as 'haml'
%div{:id=>"parent",:title=>"<r:title />"}
  %r:content_for_layout
  
// Child Layout - with content/type set as 'haml'
%r:inside_layout{:name=>"Parent"}
  %h2
    %:title

<div id="parent" title="some title">
  <h2>
    some title
  </h2>
</div>

Integrates the work of SaturnFlyer creating a haml_filter on pages and snippets. Additional task involved.

changing the order which objects with this type are renders. The content is turned into html before the radius tags are passed.
