PartialNamespaceble

Workaround for this issue rails/issues/21004

Let's say you have namespaced models, like these:

# app/models/user.rb
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_one :profile
end

# app/models/user/profile.rb
class User::Profile < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :user
end

And you want to render model's partial in a template, like this:

render @user.profile

Where should you put your profile partial? My answer is app/views/users/profiles/, but rails disagree and raises missing partial because it tries to find this partial in app/views/user/profiles. There is a special method to_partial_path in ActiveModel which is responsible for partial path, but you don't want to override it on each of your models. That's why this gem exists.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'partial_namespaceble', github: 'olegantonyan/partial_namespaceble'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install partial_namespaceble

Usage

Include PartialNamespaceble into your namespaced model

# app/models/user/profile.rb
class User::Profile < ActiveRecord::Base
  include PartialNamespaceble
  belongs_to :user
end
