i want to extend root.html.heex by two liveview-components
to create some kind of ‘container’ in which the router-content (@inner_content) in the center:

          ..............................................                                        
          .                                            .                                        
          .     root.html.heex                .                                        
          .                                            .                                        
          ..............................................                                        
          .      live-component-header  .                                        
          .    *************************                                         
          .                                            .                                        
          ..                                         ...                                        
          ..                                         ...                                        
          ..                                       ...                                        
          ..    @inner_content            ....                                       
          ..                                         ....                                       
          ..                                         ....                                       
          ..                                         ....                                       
          ..                                         ....                                       
          ..                                         ....                                       
          ..                                         .. .                                       
          ..                                         .. .                                       
          ..                                         .. .                                       
          ..                                         .. .                                       
          ..                                         .. .                                       
          ..                                         .. .                                       
          ..                                         .. .                                       
          ............................................. .                                       
          .    live-component-footer      .                                       
          ...............................................                                       

unfortunatelly, i cannot use the live-components in root.html.heex:

<div class="flex grow-1 shrink-1 basis-full flex-col">
        <div>
          <.live_component module={LiveWeb.HeaderComponent} id="header" />
        </div>
        <div>
          {@inner_content}
        </div>
        <div>
          <.live_component module={LiveWeb.FooterComponent} id="footer" />
        </div>
      </div>

Any hint is very appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
regards
jensu

app.html.heex already exists, you don’t have to do anything. All you did here was set app.html.heex as the root layout :slight_smile:

Both the root and app layouts are always rendered. Where you set the app layout is in lib/<my_app>_web.ex. Look for:

  def live_view do
    quote do
      use Phoenix.LiveView,
        layout: {Myapp[Web.Layouts, :app} # <-- here

      unquote(html_helpers())
    end
  end

You don’t have to change anything, just showing you where it is set.

Where Next?
