Ruby on Rails,创建最简单的视图/控制器单元Hello World
http://blog.csdn.net/abbuggy/article/details/7409445
在Ruby on Rails,创建一个最简单的站点中我们通过rails new simple_site命令创建了一个web应用骨架。笔墨纸砚都准备好了,该是时候写出第一个Hello World啦~!
Rails明确的按照MVC结构组织内容,回想一下MVC结构的简单知识。Browser(浏览器)向Controller(控制器)发出交互请求;Controller对请求做出分发处理调用Model(模型)进行业务或者数据运算;Controller将Model运算的结果推送给View(视图)使其在Browser中绘制显示。作为Hello World来说,建立一个从Browser到Controller再到View的例子既简单有很能说明问题。也就是说这个例子中不涉及与模型及数据库的任何操作,只是由Controller根据Browser发来的请求进行相应,并将相应交给View显示在Browser上。
进入应用目录simple_site,使用生成命令rails generate。这个命令负责在当前目录按照参数要求生成目录结构及代码。不带任何参数的命令会显示提示信息。
E:\greensoft\RailsInstaller\Sites\simple_site>rails generate Usage: rails generate GENERATOR [args] [options] General options: -h, [--help] # Print generator's options and usage -p, [--pretend] # Run but do not make any changes -f, [--force] # Overwrite files that already exist -s, [--skip] # Skip files that already exist -q, [--quiet] # Suppress status output Please choose a generator below. Rails: assets controller generator helper integration_test mailer migration model observer performance_test resource scaffold scaffold_controller session_migration task Coffee: coffee:assets Jquery: jquery:install Js: js:assets我们需要创建Controller和View,使用rails generate controller命令。不带任何参数的命令会对创建controller的使用方式进行提示,应该静下心来读一读。其中最有用的部分是说,以CamelCase(大写字母开头分割单词)或者under_scored(下划线分割单词)的方式命名Controller,将View名称列表以参数的方式给出。后面还举了一个很典型的例子。
E:\greensoft\RailsInstaller\Sites\simple_site>rails generate controller Usage: rails generate controller NAME [action action] [options] Options: [--skip-namespace] # Skip namespace (affects only isolated applications) [--old-style-hash] # Force using old style hash (:foo => 'bar') on Ruby >= 1.9 -e, [--template-engine=NAME] # Template engine to be invoked # Default: erb -t, [--test-framework=NAME] # Test framework to be invoked # Default: test_unit [--helper] # Indicates when to generate helper # Default: true [--assets] # Indicates when to generate assets # Default: true Runtime options: -f, [--force] # Overwrite files that already exist -p, [--pretend] # Run but do not make any changes -q, [--quiet] # Supress status output -s, [--skip] # Skip files that already exist Description: Stubs out a new controller and its views. Pass the controller name, either CamelCased or under_scored, and a list of views as arguments. To create a controller within a module, specify the controller name as a path like 'parent_module/controller_name'. This generates a controller class in app/controllers and invokes helper, template engine and test framework generators. Example: `rails generate controller CreditCard open debit credit close` Credit card controller with URLs like /credit_card/debit. Controller: app/controllers/credit_card_controller.rb Functional Test: test/functional/credit_card_controller_test.rb Views: app/views/credit_card/debit.html.erb [...] Helper: app/helpers/credit_card_helper.rb我们要创建一个名为demo的Controller,指向名为index的View。在这里可以使用g来代替generate,就像s代替service一样。回显信息告诉我们,rails为我们在app/controller目录中创建了一个名为demo_controller的Controller。app/views/目录中创建了一个名为demo的目录,目录中的index.html.erb对应View。
E:\greensoft\RailsInstaller\Sites\simple_site>rails g controller demo index create app/controllers/demo_controller.rb route get "demo/index" invoke erb create app/views/demo create app/views/demo/index.html.erb invoke test_unit create test/functional/demo_controller_test.rb invoke helper create app/helpers/demo_helper.rb invoke test_unit create test/unit/helpers/demo_helper_test.rb invoke assets invoke coffee create app/assets/javascripts/demo.js.coffee invoke scss create app/assets/stylesheets/demo.css.scsscontroller目录中名为demo的Controller里有一个名为index的方法,在在这里应该叫做action。这个叫index的action,对应views目录中名为index.html.erb的View。
class DemoController < ApplicationController def index end end
修改一下页面内容
<h1>Demo#index</h1> <p>Hello World!</p>
<p>Find me in app/views/demo/index.html.erb</p>
代码编写完毕,启动web服务器。在浏览器地址栏中输入:localhost:3000/demo/index。里程碑!
