Proper way to preview component in a slot

[muriloime]

Hi all, The components do not show when inside slots in a preview. Example:

outer_component.rb

class OuterComponent
 renders_one :button 
end 

outer_component preview

    render(OuterComponent.new) do |c|
      c.button { 'My awesome button' }
    end

This works as expected and documented in https://viewcomponent.org/guide/slots.html. However, when using a component:

    render(OuterComponent.new) do |c|
      c.button { render InnerComponent.new }
    end

does not work ( inner component does not render. I tried both with and without the inner render ) . Am I doing something stupid here or there is a bug?

many thanks

Hey @muriloime, thanks for opening this discussion. I'm going to work to replicate the issue - if it does turn out there's a replicable problem here, I'll convert this discussion to an issue. In the meantime, you ought to have better luck with preview templates. Personally I tend to prefer those for previews, but I can understand that for the sake of understanding what each example does, inline declaration's preferable.

Issue #1322 has been raised to address this, so discussion will continue over there. Thanks for raising this!
