There is some features that you didn't show in the main post, that I may consider important... you can pass parameters to the embedded actions with the :params key for example supuse that we want to embed an action, but this actions requires a user_id in the params, we could easily do this in the invocation of embed_action: embed_action :controller => 'post', :action => 'top_10', :params => { :user_id => 10 } or we could pass even the same params hash and it would take it embed_action :controller => 'post', :action => 'top_10', :params => params Could notice that you cant put even ruby objects and it takes it to the controller too embed_action :controller => 'post', :action => 'top_10', :params => { :user => current_user } This plugin is very cool indeed.

There is some features that you didn’t show in the main post, that I may consider important… you can pass parameters to the embedded actions with the :params key

for example supuse that we want to embed an action, but this actions requires a user_id in the params, we could easily do this in the invocation of embed_action:

embed_action :controller => ‘post’, :action => ‘top_10′, :params => { :user_id => 10 }

or we could pass even the same params hash and it would take it

embed_action :controller => ‘post’, :action => ‘top_10′, :params => params

Could notice that you cant put even ruby objects and it takes it to the controller too

embed_action :controller => ‘post’, :action => ‘top_10′, :params => { :user => current_user }

This plugin is very cool indeed.

Its absurd that they let components suck so much until ripping it out without offering a replacement. People who think using before_filters and partials are a replacement for a real component structure are on crack. Thanks for the plugin! This thing needs to get into the Rails core.
