[LRUG] Tool to show included partials in RoR?

[Matthew Rudy Jacobs]

I've built "HTML trace" plugins a couple of times.
At least in rails 2.2 there was a particular method for partial rendering
Could easily be super ed

But it was too hacky
Perhaps with 3 and the fixed api you can build a robust solution

You can't do a good job of this in general, since the argument to #render
can be an arbitrary Ruby expression (e.g. an ActiveRecord instance) rather
than just the static filename of a partial, so you won't know what partial
it's rendering without actually executing the template (and the application
it lives in).

So maybe someone out there has written a tool that greps templates for
"render :partial => '.*'" and "render '.*'" and builds a dependency tree
from that, but if that technique alone is sophisticated enough to draw the
graph you're looking for then you're luckier than me.

Cheers,
