Rails - Update Bootstrap Popover Content With Partial After Ajax

I'm building out a notifications feature using bootstrap popover. When a user clicks on a notification, it will mark that notification as read through an ajax call. On ajax success

Solution 1:

You could fetch the partial from your controller like so:

class TestController < ApplicationController
  def render_partial

    notification_id = params[:notification_id]

    # Fetch notification data
    notification = Notification.find(notification_id)

    # Return partial with new notification data
    render partial: 'notifications/partials/test_partial', locals: {:notification => notification}
  end
end

Then append the response in JS:

$('.notifications-list').append(resp)
