我可以在 rails 的单个页面中呈现两个不同的控制器操作吗

Question

So basically what I am about to do is have a fixed search bar with is results. And also view page of the selected result with links to all its CRUD actions, and also link to move to other associated controllers.

Now when I click on edit action or if I choose to move to another associated controller view the search bar and its results should be unchanged. I have a basic understanding of jquery and ajax, would I need to try angular.js for this.

So to summarize I need a fixed search bar with search results unaffected on moving from one controller to other.

Please help me figure this out. If you have trouble understanding the question leave a comment.

Answer 1

If you want to render two (or more) variables in a controller you may do something wrong.

I see several options here.

1. You probably should have a page, when you already have a static bar but have nothing under it though. In that case, you simply call a controller for this bar and nothing more. Then you use ajax to render what's inside second 'frame'.
2. You probably will want to take a look at Facade pattern . It allows you to instantiate only one variable in a controller at a time. Also, it may somehow structurize things in your head, and you will see more pleasant ways.

(Also read this . It has a slight example of Facade with Rails)
