I want to display a resume in a view, but have the data stored in something other than HTML so I can update it easily. Then, I want to also create a printable version that is easily sendable to people, but it's powered by the same data. So, technically, I update it in the site and then it updates a pdf.

resume-question.

I'm updating my site, repo is here: https://github.com/jaronoff/josharonoff.com

I want to include my resume on the homepage in a rendered partial, and I'm trying to figure out how to have the display pull the data from a data source, either a txt file or something in the database. I'm open to suggestions.

I'm using Foundation, and I want to be able to change the look and feel of the view, dependant on where in the site I have it. Example, on the homepage, maybe I only show where I've worked (company name.) but on the resume, I show all the data. Both pull from the same data set.

Here's the kind of data I'd be pulling from.

Any help is greatly appreciated... THANKS!! :)

###CONTROLLER

class ResumeController < ApplicationController
helper_method :resume
def show
end

protected
def resume
@resume ||= Resume.find_by_email("[email protected]")
end
end

Views - app/views/resumes/

show.html.erb

<%= resume.details %>

assuming your table resume has a details column to save your data

put a link here to download your resume as PDF. clicking that will make another call to controller to generate PDF version of your resume.

I hope it helps
