I hope this is an easy question:
Let's say a :team has_many :players;
a player has statistics, like batting_average.
a team has overall statistics averaged over all its players,
overall_batting_average.
I can make a special-purpose view of teams that shows ONLY team name and
overall batting average.
I do this simply by making a new activescaffold controller, say
team_stats_controller.rb, and loading config.columns with those two fields.
Now I want this special_purpose view of teams to allow drill-down to
players. ("Who's responsible for the crummy batting average?")
I can do this simply by adding "players" to config.columns in
team_stats_controller. AS then makes the players column a link to a
sub-form showing all players for that team.
So far, so good.
But I want the sub-form "players" page to have a DIFFERENT layout from the
normal players page.
Perhaps I want it to only show the player's name and batting_average.
What's the best way to do this?
Set up an activescaffold controller, say player_stats_controller.rb to show
this special layout, then add a helper method for the players_column that
puts a link to that controller? But that won't limit the view to just
players for that team.
Is there a better way to customize the layout of a sub-form?
