Passing a block to a cell

[Mike Pence]

hey guys,

I am looking to do this:

= render_cell :container, :display do

  = render_cell :contained, :display

...but the &block does not seem to get passed to the :display method. 

[Mike Pence]

...and I see from the source that passing a block lets you do some additional stuff with the cell instance, but is not the right way to do what I want to do.

Hi Mike,

You can pass the content into the render_cell call and then use it in your view. BTW, you should change to view models, Cells 4.0 doesn't support render_cell anymore (README coming soon).

Is that a feature we could need in Cells 4.0?

= cell(:container).call do 

  = cell(:song).call

So you would just call yield in the song container cell?

[Nick Sutterer]

No, yield won't work. It's all manual work. You pass the content block into the cell and handle it as a variable. The same way you deal with other options.

render_cell(:container, :show, content: html)

Then, in the show.haml view:

= html

It's clumsy. We can think about allowing this in Cells 4.0 (which doesn't use ActionView anymore, is a million times faster, and less code).
