How to include js.erb file in view folder

Question

I have a JavaScript file to use with a view. There needs to be Ruby code in it, and I need to do render in Ruby, so I understand that I can\'t put the JavaScrip

Answer 1

you can do this by

render :partial => "myfile"

you have to keep your file in controller's view directory with name _myfile.js.erb

Now you can write your own code (js,ruby) here and probably can separate out js with javascript_include_tag to avail asset pipline

This file will be first rendered by erb engine and then as javascript.
