In middleman, create a dynamic URL in link_to?

Question

I'm new to middleman and ruby so the syntax is very unfamiliar. I have setup a simple list page and a dynamic article page. This all works fine, but how do i generate the dynamic URL in link_to?

My list page is at localhost/list/ And my dynamic article page should be localhost/list/1/ where the number is dynamic.

<% data.list.each do |b| %>
    <%= link_to 'Read more', '/list/b.id.html' %>
<% end %>

How can I generate the dynamic URL?

<%= link_to 'Read more', '/list/' + b.id.to_s + '.html' %>

This is a more Rubyish way: `<%= link_to 'Read more', "/list/#{b.id.to_s}.html" %>`. – Andrey Mikhaylov - lolmaus Mar 07 '14 at 16:01
