Responses

Creating responses

To create an Inertia response, your controller method should send the name of Javascript page component as well as any props for the page. If you're using for example Vue.js on client-side the controller would pass some props to the given Vue.js component. The props are equivalent to the context that you can pass to a normal Masonite view.

To make an Inertia response, use the Inertia render function. This method takes the component name, and allows you to pass props.

app/http/controllers/EventsController.py

from masonite.controllers import Controller
from masonite.inertia import Inertia

from app.Event import Event


class EventsController(Controller):

    def show(self, view: Inertia):
        return view.render("Events/Show", {
            "event": Event.find(self.request.param("id")).serialize()
        })

In this example we're passing a single prop, called event to the Event/Show page component.

You can also directly resolve inertia instance in your controller.

app/http/controllers/EventsController.py

from masonite.controllers import Controller
from masonite.request import Request

from app.Event import Event


class EventsController(Controller):

    def show(self, request: Request):

        return request.app.make("inertia").render("Events/Show", {
            "event": Event.find(self.request.param("id")).serialize()
        })

Inertia.render()

render(self, component, props={}, custom_root_view=None)
