# Responses

## Creating responses

To create an Inertia response, your controller method should send the name of Javascript page component as well as any props for the page. If you're using for example Vue.js on client-side the controller would pass some props to the given Vue.js component. The props are equivalent to the context that you can pass to a normal Masonite view.

{% hint style="info" %}
To make an Inertia response, use the Inertia **render** function. This method takes the component name, and allows you to pass props.
{% endhint %}

{% code title="app/http/controllers/EventsController.py" %}

```python
from masonite.controllers import Controller
from masonite.inertia import Inertia

from app.Event import Event


class EventsController(Controller):

    def show(self, view: Inertia):

        return view.render("Events/Show", {
            "event": Event.find(self.request.param("id")).serialize()
        })
```

{% endcode %}

In this example we're passing a single prop, called `event` to the `Event/Show` page component.

You can also directly resolve `inertia` instance in your controller

{% code title="app/http/controllers/EventsController.py" %}

```python
from masonite.controllers import Controller
from masonite.request import Request

from app.Event import Event


class EventsController(Controller):

    def show(self, request: Request):

        return request.app.make("inertia").render("Events/Show", {
            "event": Event.find(self.request.param("id")).serialize()
        })
```

{% endcode %}

### Inertia.render()

```python
render(self, component, props={}, custom_root_view=None)
```
