# frozen_string_literal: true module ActionController # Handles implicit rendering for a controller action that does not # explicitly respond with +render+, +respond_to+, +redirect+, or +head+. # # For API controllers, the implicit response is always <tt>204 No Content</tt>. # # For all other controllers, we use these heuristics to decide whether to # render a template, raise an error for a missing template, or respond with # <tt>204 No Content</tt>: # # First, if we DO find a template, it's rendered. Template lookup accounts # for the action name, locales, format, variant, template handlers, and more # (see +render+ for details). # # Second, if we DON'T find a template but the controller action does have # templates for other formats, variants, etc., then we trust that you meant # to provide a template for this response, too, and we raise # <tt>ActionController::UnknownFormat</tt> with an explanation. # # Third, if we DON'T find a template AND the request is a page load in a web # browser (technically, a non-XHR GET request for an HTML response) where # you reasonably expect to have rendered a template, then we raise # <tt>ActionController::MissingExactTemplate</tt> with an explanation. # # Finally, if we DON'T find a template AND the request isn't a browser page # load, then we implicitly respond with <tt>204 No Content</tt>. module ImplicitRender # :stopdoc: include BasicImplicitRender def default_render if template_exists?(action_name.to_s, _prefixes, variants: request.variant) render elsif any_templates?(action_name.to_s, _prefixes) message = "#{self.class.name}\##{action_name} is missing a template " \ "for this request format and variant.\n" \ "\nrequest.formats: #{request.formats.map(&:to_s).inspect}" \ "\nrequest.variant: #{request.variant.inspect}" raise ActionController::UnknownFormat, message elsif interactive_browser_request? message = "#{self.class.name}\##{action_name} is missing a template for request formats: #{request.formats.map(&:to_s).join(',')}" raise ActionController::MissingExactTemplate, message else logger.info "No template found for #{self.class.name}\##{action_name}, rendering head :no_content" if logger super end end def method_for_action(action_name) super || if template_exists?(action_name.to_s, _prefixes) "default_render" end end private def interactive_browser_request? request.get? && request.format == Mime[:html] && !request.xhr? end end end
