There is a fantastic method in Rails to render a collection of objects for view templates, and it works as fellows:
<%= render @restaurants %>
It's automatically gonna look for a partial named _restaurant.html.erb
, loop through collection, pass individual object to the partial, and render it. This is pretty fantastic.
Now, I'm looking for a very similar way in jbuilder
gem.
_restaurant.json.jbuilder
json.(restaurant, :id, :name, :address, :latitude, :longitude)
Now, for @restaurants
, how would I use this partial in the same way it works in Rails for view templates? For the time being, I'm rendering the collection the following way:
json.restaurants @restaurants do |restaurant|
json.partial! restaurant
end
Ok, so I think you are looking for the below :
json.partial! :restaurant, collection: @restaurants
