Does template exist?

An instance of the class ActionView::LookupContext::ViewPaths is available as lookup_context in a rails view.

If you need to dynamically construct partial paths and know that sometimes the partial may not exist, you can use the lookup_context method exists? to determine if the partial exists.

lookup_context.exists?(dynamic_path, [], true)

The third argument is partial, the second argument is prefixes.
