Root view

Customizing the root view

By default an inertia response is rendering data in the default app.html view.

Global configuration

You can change the name of the view globally in the configuration file

config/inertia.py

ROOT_VIEW = "inertia_app"

Now every inertia responses is going to render content in inertia_app.html view.

This can also be done through a custom inertia middleware.

Local configuration

There are situations where you may want to render content in other view but just e.g. for one controller method. We got you covered !

app/http/controllers/HomeController.py

from masonite.controllers import Controller
from masonite.inertia import InertiaResponse


class HomeController(Controller):

    def index(self, view: InertiaResponse):
        """This view will be rendered in 'home.html'."""
        return view.render(
            "Home",
            { "first_name": "Sam" },
            custom_root_view="home"
        )

    def contact(self, view: InertiaResponse):
        """This view will be rendered in 'app.html'."""
        return view.render("Contact")
