I installed wicked PDF and modified my controller :
def show
respond_to do |format|
format.pdf do
render :pdf => "file_name"
end
format.html
end
end
Here is how i link to the pdf : compte_contrat_path(c,:format=>'pdf')
It works for html (without the format) but fail for PDF with the following error :
Template is missing
Missing template contrats/show with {:locale=>[:fr], :formats=>[:pdf], :handlers=>[:erb, :builder, :coffee, :arb]}. Searched in: * "/home/sylario/ruby/place_de_marche/app/views" * "/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p136/gems/activeadmin-0.5.0/app/views" * "/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p136/gems/kaminari-0.14.1/app/views" * "/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p136/gems/devise-2.2.0/app/views"
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks to henry I now know it was related to the format of the ERB. I have found a way to reuse my html.erb files :
First i do the following in the controller
format.pdf do
render :pdf => "file.pdf", :template => 'contrats/show.html.erb'
end
Then when i use partials i call them like this :
render :partial => 'fullpath/toview.html.erb', :formats => [:html], :locals => { :mylocal=>@something }
