I put all methods that I use more than once into my application controller. This helps keep my controllers lean, except for my application controller. After years of doing this, my application controller is huge.
I enjoy having the ability to break down complex views into partials. And I also put elements that can be accessed in more than one view into partials.
I would love to have the same principle applied to my application controller... e.g. 'partials' that could be accessed in my application controller that would be the equivalent of a view's use of <%= render 'whatchamacallit' %>
.
I've read documentation on the application controller and haven't found this ability. Is there a way of doing this now? Thanks in advance.
