Hi everybody!
Here how I have resolved my problem with changing page's layout on-the-fly:)
I have created my own extension folder with my namespace-tags for unusual
tasks.
desc %{
Works like design switcher.
}
tag 'gsession:design' do |tag|
design_type = request.session["gsession_design"]
if design_type == nil
design_type = GenieSessionExtension.defaults[:design]
request.session["gsession_design"] = design_type
end
design_type.strip!
if layout = Layout.find_by_name(tag.attr["#{design_type}"])
tag.globals.page.layout = layout
tag.globals.page.render
end
end
Usage:
I have created layout named "master-index" with only one line in it:
<r:gsession:design full="full-index" light="light-index" />
With 2 arguments, which describes layout names for 'full' and 'light'
version of my site. You can define 'gsession_*design*' session variable at
any time by hitting, for example:* /genie/set/design/light*
All my pages have selected 'master-index' layout.
That is all, while page is rendered my tag switches current layout to
'full-index' or 'light-index' named layouts.
Waiting for comments ... Thank you:)
