Include another action

Rails

Is there some way in Rails to include (the output of) another action
in a page? What I am looking for is something like
RequestDispatcher.include() in Java.

I believe that’s the intention of components:

Yes, that is exactly what I was looking for. I wasn’t even looking
there since I thought it was only for the stuff in the components-dir.
