By default, when an an Erubis template raises an error, you get something like this:
(erubis):32:in `evaluate': compile error (SyntaxError)
(erubis):30: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting ']'
(erubis):32: unterminated string meets end of file
The line numbers refer to the template.
That's all well and good when you just have one template, but I'm batch-processing a bunch of template files. What's the best way to replace the above with a more usable error message, e.g. one that shows the path to the source file instead of (erubis):32?
I'd thought of rescuing, messing around with the exception object, and raising again, but I'm wondering if there's an easier way provided by the Erubis API (or some other one).
You can pass :filename parameter to Erubis.
eruby = Erubis::Eruby.new(string, :filename=>"file.rhtml")
