Hello Community... Is there a possibility to render a Widget in a Controller Action and put the rendered template as part as json response? Thanks in advance for your support!

You should be able to get the twig service from the application, I guess

in the controller $this->getApplication()->get('twig')

and then $twig->render('your_template.twig', $params)

.. but.. i would like to render the mini cart widget in a controller action..

MiniCartWidget

    /**
     * @param int $cartQuantity
     */
    public function __construct($cartQuantity)
    {
        $this->addParameter('cartQuantity', $cartQuantity)
            ->addParameter('activeCart', $this->getActiveCart())
            ->addParameter('cartList', $this->getInActiveQuoteList())
            ->addParameter('isMultiCartAllowed', $this->isMultiCartAllowed());

        /** @deprecated Use global widgets instead. */
        $this->addWidgets($this->getFactory()->getViewExtendWidgetPlugins());
    }

    /**
     * @return string
     */
    public static function getName(): string
    {
        return 'MiniCartWidget';
    }

    /**
     * @return string
     */
    public static function getTemplate(): string
    {
        return '@MultiCartWidget/views/mini-cart/mini-cart.twig';
    }
.....

As u see the construct set other params... I don't want calculate on my controller the other params value.. otherwise i need to set new dependency provider (in this case for example multiCartClient etc...)

not sure I see -- in this case you would have a dedicated template like {{ widget("MyWidget", quantity) }}.

the other parameters would be inferred from the current environment
