Can I render view without returning it in action controller in zend framework 2?

Question

Now I am doing so:

public function indexAction() {
    ...
    $view = new ViewModel(array(
        \'foo\' => \'bar\',
    ));
    return $view;
}
         


        

Answer 1

Try this:

public function IndexAction()
{
    ...
    $viewRender = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('ViewRenderer');
    $html = $viewRender->render($viewModel);
    ...
}
