first of need have erb structured properly,
<% form_tag("/home/search", method: "get") %> <%=text_field_tag(:search)%> <%=submit_tag("search")%> <%end%> you can send local variable in controller renders search.html.erb, this,
get '/hello/search' search_text = params[:search] render :search, :locals => {:your_variable => search_text} end now can use variable in views/search.html.erb ,
<%=client.search(your_variable, result_type: "recent").take(5).collect |tweet| %>
