I have a problem using inheritance in cells-3.7.0 gem with rails 3.1.1. Looks like a bug, but I'm not sure. I have a Sidebar with a bunch of buttons that are displayed or not depending on different parameters. I am trying to use Cells to take out some logic from views. Works fine, except for inheritance. I have a cell for every button, like this:
class AddCompanyCell < Cell::Rails
def display
render
end
end
class CompanyJobsCell < Cell::Rails
def display(args)
@company = args[:company]
render
end
end
Specs for these cells look like:
describe AddCompanyCell do
context "cell rendering" do
context "rendering display" do
subject { render_cell(:add_company, :display) }
it { should have_link("Add Company", href: "/companies/new") }
end
end
context "cell instance" do
subject { cell(:add_company) }
it { should respond_to(:display) }
end
end
All specs pass.
Obviously, I have many classes like ones above. They have only one display
method, but with the variable number of parameters. So, I tried to implement a parent class for all of those:
class GeneralCell < Cell::Rails
def display(args)
args.each do |k,v|
eval("@#{k} = v")
end
render
end
end
All specs pass for GeneralCell
. But when I try to apply inheritance, like:
class AddCompanyCell < GeneralCell
end
I get failure when call render_cell:
Failure/Error: subject { render_cell(:add_company, :display, opts: {}) }
AbstractController::ActionNotFound:
The action 'display' could not be found for AddCompanyCell
Please note, that second test for AddCompanyCell (should respond_to(:display)
) passes. Weird. Any ideas?
