Question

I’m trying to render an HTML file using render :file in my view, but the problem is, if this .html file contains any ruby code, it’ll end up being executed and that is something I’m trying to avoid.

Is there a way to do that?

Answer 1

if you want to output a simple file, you can do it like this:

path = __FILE__
render text: File.read(path).html_safe

this writes the current file as output.
