How to render from with <%%>?

Rails
1

I have a loop that I iterate through in my view.

<%
coll.each do |itm|
puts(itm.value)
end
%>

How do I render the itm.value without using a <%= %> tag? Should puts
not work?

P.S. There is a good enough reason for me wanting to do this :slight_smile:

You can’t use puts in views.

What is it you’re trying to do? You’ll have to give us the good enough
reason i think :0)

<%= coll.collect(&:value).join %>

You can use the ‘concat’ method instead of ‘puts’:

<%
coll.each do |itm|
concat(itm.value, binding)
end
%>

puts doesn’t append its arguments to the _erbout variable, which is
where erb accumulates its output.

You could do:

<% coll.each {|itm| _erbout << itm.value } %>

or something like that, though that’s really what <%= %> is for :slight_smile:
