#320 Jbuilder

Is it possible to do fragment caching with Jbuilder?

Is there any gem for generating xml representation in such kind of way?

I have used ActiveModel::Serializers::JSON module to make a serializer/presenter class and I like this approach better than Jbuilder.

Is jBuilder similar to RABL? (I think it is...) If so - what are the pros/cons of jBuilder vs RABL?

The show notes have 'views/articles/show.json.builder' as the one path, but it should be '.jbuilder'

Very timely episode. I'm implementing it now!

I was hoping you would do a railscast on Jbuilder! How about one on Grape, it's got some pretty cool features. If you wanted to do a 5min Pro on Grape I'd be ok with that :)

Is there a way to do API versioning and inheritance with jbuilder?

How do you reference a boolean field?
If the value of a boolean field is false then the field will not be included in the json response

for a quick&dirty support on jsonp with this, you can go with an after_filter:

after_filter do |controller| 
    if controller.params[:callback] && controller.params[:format].to_s == 'json'
      controller.response['Content-Type'] = 'application/javascript'
      controller.response.body = "%s(%s)" % [controller.params[:callback], controller.response.body]
    end
  end

Can Jbuilder templates be used inside of layouts? I tried creating a layout:

json.results do |json|
  yield
end

But unfortunately I just get {"results":{}}.

anyone know how to make jbuilder pretty print?

I'm having trouble using Jbuilder with Rails 3.1.0, specifically my Jbuilder view (index.json.builder) is rendering empty, and throwing no errors. I've placed the issue on Stack hoping to get some help:

Has anyone else seen this behavior?

+1 for a episode on Grape

Goog question from Brandon Williams. Can Jbuilder templates be used inside of layouts?

Maximum that I have been to achieve is this:

# v1.json.jbuilder - layout
json.request do |json|
  json.url "https://api.storyful.com/stories.json"
  json.status 200
end
json.data JSON.parse(yield)

# show.json.jbuilder - action view
json.test 'test form show'
