module Helpers
# Form helpers are designed to make working with models much easier
# compared to using just standard HTML elements by providing a set of
# methods for creating forms based on your models. This helper generates
# the HTML for forms, providing a method for each sort of input
# (e.g., text, password, select, and so on). When the form is submitted
# (i.e., when the user hits the submit button or <tt>form.submit</tt> is
# called via JavaScript), the form inputs will be bundled into the
# <tt>params</tt> object and passed back to the controller.
#
# There are two types of form helpers: those that specifically work with
# model attributes and those that don't. This helper deals with those that
# work with model attributes; to see an example of form helpers that don't
# work with model attributes, check the ActionView::Helpers::FormTagHelper
# documentation.
#
# The core method of this helper, form_for, gives you the ability to create
# a form for a model instance; for example, let's say that you have a model
# <tt>Person</tt> and want to create a new instance of it:
#
# # Note: a @person variable will have been created in the controller.
# # For example: @person = Person.new
# <% form_for :person, @person, :url => { :action => "create" } do |f| %>
# <%= f.text_field :first_name %>
# <%= f.text_field :last_name %>
# <%= submit_tag 'Create' %>
# <% end %>
#
# The HTML generated for this would be:
#
# <form action="/persons/create" method="post">
# <input id="person_first_name" name="person[first_name]" size="30" type="text" />
# <input id="person_last_name" name="person[last_name]" size="30" type="text" />
# <input name="commit" type="submit" value="Create" />
# </form>
#
# If you are using a partial for your form fields, you can use this shortcut:
#
# <% form_for :person, @person, :url => { :action => "create" } do |f| %>
# <%= render :partial => f %>
# <%= submit_tag 'Create' %>
# <% end %>
#
# This example will render the <tt>people/_form</tt> partial, setting a
# local variable called <tt>form</tt> which references the yielded
# FormBuilder. The <tt>params</tt> object created when this form is
# submitted would look like:
#
# {"action"=>"create", "controller"=>"persons", "person"=>{"first_name"=>"William", "last_name"=>"Smith"}}
#
# The params hash has a nested <tt>person</tt> value, which can therefore
# be accessed with <tt>params[:person]</tt> in the controller. If were
# editing/updating an instance (e.g., <tt>Person.find(1)</tt> rather than
# <tt>Person.new</tt> in the controller), the objects attribute values are
# filled into the form (e.g., the <tt>person_first_name</tt> field would
# have that person's first name in it).
#
# If the object name contains square brackets the id for the object will be
# inserted. For example:
#
# <%= text_field "person[]", "name" %>
#
# ...will generate the following ERb.
#
# <input type="text" id="person_<%= @person.id %>_name" name="person[<%= @person.id %>][name]" value="<%= @person.name %>" />
#
# If the helper is being used to generate a repetitive sequence of similar
# form elements, for example in a partial used by
# <tt>render_collection_of_partials</tt>, the <tt>index</tt> option may
# come in handy. Example:
#
# <%= text_field "person", "name", "index" => 1 %>
#
# ...becomes...
#
# <input type="text" id="person_1_name" name="person[1][name]" value="<%= @person.name %>" />
#
# An <tt>index</tt> option may also be passed to <tt>form_for</tt> and
# <tt>fields_for</tt>. This automatically applies the <tt>index</tt> to
# all the nested fields.
#
# There are also methods for helping to build form tags in
# link:classes/ActionView/Helpers/FormOptionsHelper.html,
# link:classes/ActionView/Helpers/DateHelper.html, and
# link:classes/ActionView/Helpers/ActiveRecordHelper.html
module FormHelper
# Creates a form and a scope around a specific model object that is used
# as a base for questioning about values for the fields.

# <%= f.error_messages %>
# First name: <%= f.text_field :first_name %><br />

# Admin? : <%= f.check_box :admin %><br />
# <% end %>
#
# There, the first argument is a symbol or string with the name of the
# object the form is about, and also the name of the instance variable
# the object is stored in.
#
# The form builder acts as a regular form helper that somehow carries the
# model. Thus, the idea is that
#
# <%= f.text_field :first_name %>
#
# gets expanded to
#
# <%= text_field :person, :first_name %>
#
# If the instance variable is not <tt>@person</tt> you can pass the actual
# record as the second argument:
#
# <% form_for :person, person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# In that case you can think
#
# <%= f.text_field :first_name %>
#
# gets expanded to
#
# <%= text_field :person, :first_name, :object => person %>
#
# You can even display error messages of the wrapped model this way:
#
# <%= f.error_messages %>
#
# In any of its variants, the rightmost argument to +form_for+ is an
# optional hash of options:
#
# * <tt>:url</tt> - The URL the form is submitted to. It takes the same
# fields you pass to +url_for+ or +link_to+. In particular you may pass
# here a named route directly as well. Defaults to the current action.
# * <tt>:html</tt> - Optional HTML attributes for the form tag.
#
# Worth noting is that the +form_for+ tag is called in a ERb evaluation
# block, not an ERb output block. So that's <tt><% %></tt>, not
# <tt><%= %></tt>.

#
# Also note that +form_for+ doesn't create an exclusive scope. It's still
# possible to use both the stand-alone FormHelper methods and methods
# from FormTagHelper. For example:
#
# <% form_for :person, @person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |f| %>
# First name: <%= f.text_field :first_name %>
# Last name : <%= f.text_field :last_name %>
# Biography : <%= text_area :person, :biography %>
# Admin? : <%= check_box_tag "person[admin]", @person.company.admin? %>
# <% end %>
#
# This also works for the methods in FormOptionHelper and DateHelper that
# are designed to work with an object as base, like
# FormOptionHelper#collection_select and DateHelper#datetime_select.
#
# === Resource-oriented style
#
# As we said above, in addition to manually configuring the +form_for+
# call, you can rely on automated resource identification, which will use
# the conventions and named routes of that approach. This is the
# preferred way to use +form_for+ nowadays.
#
# For example, if <tt>@post</tt> is an existing record you want to edit
#
# <% form_for @post do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# is equivalent to something like:
#
# <% form_for :post, @post, :url => post_path(@post), :html => { :method => :put, :class => "edit_post", :id => "edit_post_45" } do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# And for new records
#
# <% form_for(Post.new) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# expands to

# And for namespaced routes, like +admin_post_url+:
#
# <% form_for([:admin, @post]) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# === Customized form builders
#
# You can also build forms using a customized FormBuilder class. Subclass
# FormBuilder and override or define some more helpers, then use your
# custom builder. For example, let's say you made a helper to
# automatically add labels to form inputs.
#
# <% form_for :person, @person, :url => { :action => "update" }, :builder => LabellingFormBuilder do |f| %>
# <%= f.text_field :first_name %>
# <%= f.text_field :last_name %>
# <%= text_area :person, :biography %>
# <%= check_box_tag "person[admin]", @person.company.admin? %>
# <% end %>
#
# In this case, if you use this:
#
# <%= render :partial => f %>
#
# The rendered template is <tt>people/_labelling_form</tt> and the local
# variable referencing the form builder is called
# <tt>labelling_form</tt>.
#
# The custom FormBuilder class is automatically merged with the options
# of a nested fields_for call, unless it's explicitely set.
#
# In many cases you will want to wrap the above in another helper, so you
# could do something like the following:
#
# def labelled_form_for(record_or_name_or_array, *args, &proc)
# options = args.extract_options!
# form_for(record_or_name_or_array, *(args << options.merge(:builder => LabellingFormBuilder)), &proc)
# end
#
# If you don't need to attach a form to a model instance, then check out
# FormTagHelper#form_tag.

# Creates a scope around a specific model object like form_for, but
# doesn't create the form tags themselves. This makes fields_for suitable
# for specifying additional model objects in the same form.
#
# === Generic Examples
#
# <% form_for @person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |person_form| %>
# First name: <%= person_form.text_field :first_name %>
# Last name : <%= person_form.text_field :last_name %>
#
# <% fields_for @person.permission do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin? : <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
#
# ...or if you have an object that needs to be represented as a different
# parameter, like a Client that acts as a Person:
#
# <% fields_for :person, @client do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin?: <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# ...or if you don't have an object, just a name of the parameter:
#
# <% fields_for :person do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin?: <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# Note: This also works for the methods in FormOptionHelper and
# DateHelper that are designed to work with an object as base, like
# FormOptionHelper#collection_select and DateHelper#datetime_select.
#
# === Nested Attributes Examples
#
# When the object belonging to the current scope has a nested attribute
# writer for a certain attribute, fields_for will yield a new scope
# for that attribute. This allows you to create forms that set or change
# the attributes of a parent object and its associations in one go.
#
# Nested attribute writers are normal setter methods named after an
# association. The most common way of defining these writers is either
# with +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ in a model definition or by
# defining a method with the proper name. For example: the attribute
# writer for the association <tt>:address</tt> is called
# <tt>address_attributes=</tt>.
#
# Whether a one-to-one or one-to-many style form builder will be yielded
# depends on whether the normal reader method returns a _single_ object
# or an _array_ of objects.
#
# ==== One-to-one
#
# Consider a Person class which returns a _single_ Address from the
# <tt>address</tt> reader method and responds to the
# <tt>address_attributes=</tt> writer method:
#
# class Person
# def address
# @address
# end
#
# def address_attributes=(attributes)
# # Process the attributes hash
# end
# end
#
# This model can now be used with a nested fields_for, like so:
#
# <% form_for @person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <% person_form.fields_for :address do |address_fields| %>
# Street : <%= address_fields.text_field :street %>
# Zip code: <%= address_fields.text_field :zip_code %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
#
# When address is already an association on a Person you can use
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ to define the writer method for you:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_one :address
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :address
# end
#
# If you want to destroy the associated model through the form, you have
# to enable it first using the <tt>:allow_destroy</tt> option for
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_one :address
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :address, :allow_destroy => true
# end
#
# Now, when you use a form element with the <tt>_delete</tt> parameter,
# with a value that evaluates to +true+, you will destroy the associated
# model (eg. 1, '1', true, or 'true'):
#
# <% form_for @person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <% person_form.fields_for :address do |address_fields| %>
# ...
# Delete: <%= address_fields.check_box :_delete %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
#
# ==== One-to-many
#
# Consider a Person class which returns an _array_ of Project instances
# from the <tt>projects</tt> reader method and responds to the
# <tt>projects_attributes=</tt> writer method:
#
# class Person
# def projects
# [@project1, @project2]
# end
#
# def projects_attributes=(attributes)
# # Process the attributes hash
# end
# end
#
# This model can now be used with a nested fields_for. The block given to
# the nested fields_for call will be repeated for each instance in the
# collection:
#
# <% form_for @person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <% person_form.fields_for :projects do |project_fields| %>
# <% if project_fields.object.active? %>
# Name: <%= project_fields.text_field :name %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
#
# It's also possible to specify the instance to be used:
#
# <% form_for @person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <% @person.projects.each do |project| %>
# <% if project.active? %>
# <% person_form.fields_for :projects, project do |project_fields| %>
# Name: <%= project_fields.text_field :name %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
#
# Or a collection to be used:
#
# <% form_for @person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <% person_form.fields_for :projects, @active_projects do |project_fields| %>
# Name: <%= project_fields.text_field :name %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
#
# When projects is already an association on Person you can use
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ to define the writer method for you:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_many :projects
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :projects
# end
#
# If you want to destroy any of the associated models through the
# form, you have to enable it first using the <tt>:allow_destroy</tt>
# option for +accepts_nested_attributes_for+:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_many :projects
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :projects, :allow_destroy => true
# end
#
# This will allow you to specify which models to destroy in the
# attributes hash by adding a form element for the <tt>_delete</tt>
# parameter with a value that evaluates to +true+
# (eg. 1, '1', true, or 'true'):
#
# <% form_for @person, :url => { :action => "update" } do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <% person_form.fields_for :projects do |project_fields| %>
# Delete: <%= project_fields.check_box :_delete %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>

# Returns a label tag tailored for labelling an input field for a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object
# assigned to the template (identified by +object+). The text of label will default to the attribute name unless a translation
# is found in the current I18n locale (through helpers.label.<modelname>.<attribute>) or you specify it explicitly.
# Additional options on the label tag can be passed as a hash with +options+. These options will be tagged
# onto the HTML as an HTML element attribute as in the example shown, except for the <tt>:value</tt> option, which is designed to

#
# ==== Examples
# label(:post, :title)
# # => <label for="post_title">Title</label>
#
# You can localize your labels based on model and attribute names.
# For example you can define the following in your locale (e.g. en.yml)
#
# helpers:
# label:
# post:
# body: "Write your entire text here"
#
# Which then will result in
#
# label(:post, :body)
# # => <label for="post_body">Write your entire text here</label>
#
# Localization can also be based purely on the translation of the attribute-name like this:
#
# activemodel:
# attribute:
# post:
# cost: "Total cost"
#
# label(:post, :cost)
# # => <label for="post_cost">Total cost</label>
#
# label(:post, :title, "A short title")
# # => <label for="post_title">A short title</label>
#
# label(:post, :title, "A short title", :class => "title_label")
# # => <label for="post_title" class="title_label">A short title</label>
#
# label(:post, :privacy, "Public Post", :value => "public")

# Additional options on the input tag can be passed as a hash with +options+. The +checked_value+ defaults to 1
2008-10-05 17:16:26 -04:00
# while the default +unchecked_value+ is set to 0 which is convenient for boolean values.
2008-07-16 08:00:36 -04:00
#
# ==== Gotcha
#
# The HTML specification says unchecked check boxes are not successful, and
# thus web browsers do not send them. Unfortunately this introduces a gotcha:
2009-03-24 08:15:43 -04:00
# if an +Invoice+ model has a +paid+ flag, and in the form that edits a paid
2008-07-16 08:00:36 -04:00
# invoice the user unchecks its check box, no +paid+ parameter is sent. So,
# any mass-assignment idiom like
#
# @invoice.update_attributes(params[:invoice])
#
# wouldn't update the flag.
#
2009-03-24 08:15:43 -04:00
# To prevent this the helper generates an auxiliary hidden field before
# the very check box. The hidden field has the same name and its
# attributes mimick an unchecked check box.
#
# This way, the client either sends only the hidden field (representing
# the check box is unchecked), or both fields. Since the HTML specification
# says key/value pairs have to be sent in the same order they appear in the
# form, and parameters extraction gets the last occurrence of any repeated
# key in the query string, that works for ordinary forms.
2008-07-16 08:00:36 -04:00
#
# Unfortunately that workaround does not work when the check box goes
# within an array-like parameter, as in
#
# <% fields_for "project[invoice_attributes][]", invoice, :index => nil do |form| %>
# <%= form.check_box :paid %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# because parameter name repetition is precisely what Rails seeks to distinguish
2009-03-24 08:15:43 -04:00
# the elements of the array. For each item with a checked check box you
# get an extra ghost item with only that attribute, assigned to "0".
#
# In that case it is preferable to either use +check_box_tag+ or to use
# hashes instead of arrays.
#
# ==== Examples
# # Let's say that @post.validated? is 1:
# check_box("post", "validated")
2009-03-24 08:15:43 -04:00
# # => <input name="post[validated]" type="hidden" value="0" />
# # <input type="checkbox" id="post_validated" name="post[validated]" value="1" />
#
# # Let's say that @puppy.gooddog is "no":
# check_box("puppy", "gooddog", {}, "yes", "no")
2009-03-24 08:15:43 -04:00
# # => <input name="puppy[gooddog]" type="hidden" value="no" />
# # <input type="checkbox" id="puppy_gooddog" name="puppy[gooddog]" value="yes" />
#

# radio button will be checked.
#
# To force the radio button to be checked pass <tt>:checked => true</tt> in the

#
# ==== Examples
