Hi, just some more information about my question. I’m creating a task in order to sync middleman with https://prismic.io/ (a content repository)

I’m using a template in order to build middleman pages in a thor task.

This is an abstract of my template page:

<div id="formContatti" class="row">

    <div>
        <h2 class="subheader" id="chiSiamo"><%= @siteData ['KeyValuePairs']['box-form-title']['value'].as_text %></h2>
    </div>

    <div class="wufooNew columns">
        <%= partial("wufooForm", :locals => { :sitedata => @siteData}) %>
    </div>

    <div class="large-6 medium-6 columns">
        <ul class="large-block-grid-1">
            <% @pageData ['blocks']['rassicurazioni']['blocks'].each do |i, block| %>

                <li>
                    <h4 class="subheader"><%= block ['icona']%> <%= block ['title']%></h4>

                    <span class="medium"> <%= block ['body']%> </span>
                </li>
            <% end %>
        </ul>

    </div>

</div>

As you can see I would like to use a “partial” function from padrino helpers.

Here is the code of my task:

require 'middleman-core/cli'
require 'middleman-core/extensions'
require 'date'
require 'middleman-blog/uri_templates'
require 'padrino-helpers'
require 'padrino/rendering'


# CLI Module
module Middleman::Cli
  # A thor task for creating new projects
    class SyncPages < Thor
        include Thor::Actions
        include ::Middleman::Blog::UriTemplates
        include Padrino::Helpers


        check_unknown_options!

        namespace :syncPages

        def self.source_root
            ENV['MM_ROOT']
        end




        desc 'syncPages NAME [options]', 'Create new project NAME'
        method_option 'document_type',
                        aliases: '-T',
                        default: 'default',
                        desc: "Il document type"
        # The syncPages task
        # @param [String] tag
        def syncPages(tag='pages-group')

            prismic_middleman = shared_instance.prismic_middleman

            shared_instance.logger.info "  Contentful Sync: Start..."

            site = prismic_middleman.get_by_tags ('site')
            siteData = prismic_middleman.getBlockData (site.first)



            prismic_middleman.get_by_tags(tag).each do |document|

                pageData = prismic_middleman.getBlockData (document)

                @title = pageData ['title']
                @slug  = pageData ['slug']
                @category = document["block.category"].slug
                @pageData = pageData
                @siteData = siteData



                prismic_inst = shared_instance.prismic_middleman(options[:prismic])


                path_template = uri_template prismic_inst.options.permalink
                params = {category: @category, title: @slug}
                article_path = apply_uri_template path_template, params

                pageTemplate = 'fdt_templates/' + pageData ['pageType'].downcase + '.erb'

                template pageTemplate, File.join(shared_instance.source_dir, article_path + prismic_inst.options.default_extension)
                #print template pageTemplate

            end

        end

        private
            def shared_instance
                @shared_instance ||= ::Middleman::Application.server.inst
            end

    end

    def self.exit_on_failure?
        true
    end
end

Running this task I’ve got this error:

.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.1/gems/padrino-helpers-0.12.2/lib/padrino-helpers/output_helpers.rb:33:in `render': super: no superclass method `render' for #<Middleman::Cli::SyncPages:0x000001054a2ff8> (NoMethodError)

What do I have to do in order to render a partial in this task? I’m able to render all other padrino helpers like tag, link ecc. but not the partial helper. I do not understand how the render of the partial should be done.
Can someone please give me some indication?
