How to implement erb partials in a non rails app?

Question

I want to do something like this:

require 'erb'
@var = 'test'
template = ERB.new File.new("template.erb").read
rendered = template.result(binding())

But how can I use partials in template.erb?

Answer 1

Perhaps brute-force it?

header_partial = ERB.new(File.new("header_partial.erb").read).result(binding)
footer_partial = ERB.new(File.new("footer_partial.erb").read).result(binding)

template = ERB.new <<-EOF
  <%= header_partial %>
  Body content...
  <%= footer_partial %>
EOF
puts template.result(binding)
