If you want to include native HTML in a .html.erb file, it can be done just like this:
<img class="myimage" src="image.jpg">
Using this method can result in slightly faster rendering and ensures that your intended outcome is achieved.
Alternatively, if you prefer the dynamic tag approach, you can utilize the ActionView::Helpers::AssetTagHelper. To replicate the shown example using Rails (ActionView), you would use the following syntax:
<%= image_tag 'image.jpg', class: 'myimage' %>
It's important to note that using { class: 'myimage' }
as part of the class
attribute is simply a shortcut for class: 'myimage'
.
If you need to distinguish this image by providing an ID, you can do so like this:
<%= image_tag 'image.jpg', class: 'myimage', id: 'image-1' %>
This code will produce the following HTML output:
<img src="image.jpg" class="myimage" id="image-1">
By assigning the ID image-1
, you have the flexibility to style this specific image separately from other images with the same class if necessary.
