Print file path when rendering a partial in Rails Views

I manually add file paths to my partials so that it's easy for me to debug them. The code uses slim syntax:

In a partial

= print_partial_dir 'admin/modules/_menu-left.html.slim'

Application helper

def print_partial_dir(path) "<!-- #{path} -->".html_safe if Rails.env.development? end

Is there anyway so that when I render a partial in a view, I execute a filter or a hook so that the partial's file path is printed as a comment before the partial itself? Preferably, only do this when the rails environment is in development.

If you really want debugging be eased by getting partial rendering information you can use gem "xray-rails"

group :development do
  gem 'xray-rails'
end

Then bundle and delete your cached assets:

$ bundle && rm -rf tmp/cache/assets

Restart your app, visit it in your browser, and press cmd+shift+x (Mac) or ctrl+shift+x to reveal the overlay ( Documentation)

In this way you can debug all your partials when they are rendered.

Hope this Helps..
