ParamsReturnRelatedSource
Executes a named rendering process by running each process step in sequence and aggregating the results. The `View` class comes with 3 built-in processes: `'all'`, `'template'`, and `'element'`. The `'all'` process is the default two-step rendered view, where a template is wrapped in a layout containing a header and footer.

Parameters

  • string $process A named set of rendering steps defined in the `$_processes` array.
  • array $data An associative array of data to be rendered in the set of templates.
  • array $options Options used when rendering. Available keys are as follows: - `'type'` _string_: The type of content to render. Defaults to `'html'`. - `'layout'` _string_: The name of the layout to use in the default two-step rendering process. Defaults to `null`. - `'template'` _string_: The name of the template to render. Defaults to `null`. - `'context'` _array_: An associative array of information to inject into the rendering context. - `'paths'` _array_: A nested array of paths to use for rendering steps. The top-level keys should match the `'path'` key in a step configuration (i.e.: `'template'`, `'layout'`, or `'element'`), and the second level is an array of path template strings to search (can be a string if there's only one path). These path strings generally take the following form: `'{:library}/views/{:controller}/{:template}.{:type}.php'`. These template strings are specific to the `File` loader, but can take any form useful to the template loader being used.

Returns

string Returns the result of the rendering process, typically by rendering a template first, then rendering a layout (using the default configuration of the `'all'` process).
