Is there a chance to intercept and store existing views in db automatically

[nglx]

I would like to somehow prepopulate database with partial/templates from filesystem. Ideally it could be done somehow magically when user clicks particular page.

Thanks for any hints.

You can import them with a custom rake task, something that does the following:

• reads html.erb files stored somewhere on the filesystem
• stores each of them on db with appropriate naming and required info
  • file name
  • path
  • handler
  • MIME type etc...

no magical actions here ;-)
