module Helpers #:nodoc:
# Provides a set of methods for making links and getting URLs that
# depend on the routing subsystem (see ActionController::Routing).
# This allows you to use the same format for links in views
# and controllers.
module UrlHelper
include JavaScriptHelper
# Returns the URL for the set of +options+ provided. This takes the
# same options as +url_for+ in Action Controller (see the
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# documentation for <tt>ActionController::Base#url_for</tt>). Note that by default
# <tt>:only_path</tt> is <tt>true</tt> so you'll get the relative "/controller/action"
# instead of the fully qualified URL like "http://example.com/controller/action".

2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# When called from a view, +url_for+ returns an HTML escaped url. If you
# need an unescaped url, pass <tt>:escape => false</tt> in the +options+.

# ==== Relying on named routes
#
# If you instead of a hash pass a record (like an Active Record or Active Resource) as the options parameter,
# you'll trigger the named route for that record. The lookup will happen on the name of the class. So passing
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# a Workshop object will attempt to use the +workshop_path+ route. If you have a nested route, such as
# +admin_workshop_path+ you'll have to call that explicitly (it's impossible for +url_for+ to guess that route).

#
# <%= url_for(:action => 'checkout', :anchor => 'tax&ship', :escape => false) %>
# # => /testing/jump/#tax&ship
#
# <%= url_for(Workshop.new) %>
# # relies on Workshop answering a new_record? call (and in this case returning true)
# # => /workshops
#
# <%= url_for(@workshop) %>
# # calls @workshop.to_s

# * <tt>:method => symbol of HTTP verb</tt> - This modifier will dynamically
# create an HTML form and immediately submit the form for processing using
# the HTTP verb specified. Useful for having links perform a POST operation
# in dangerous actions like deleting a record (which search bots can follow
# while spidering your site). Supported verbs are <tt>:post</tt>, <tt>:delete</tt> and <tt>:put</tt>.
# Note that if the user has JavaScript disabled, the request will fall back
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# to using GET. If <tt>:href => '#'</tt> is used and the user has JavaScript
# disabled clicking the link will have no effect. If you are relying on the
# POST behavior, you should check for it in your controller's action by using
# the request object's methods for <tt>post?</tt>, <tt>delete?</tt> or <tt>put?</tt>.
# * The +html_options+ will accept a hash of html attributes for the link tag.
#
# You can mix and match the +html_options+ with the exception of
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# <tt>:popup</tt> and <tt>:method</tt> which will raise an

# Classes and ids for CSS are easy to produce:
#
# link_to "Articles", articles_path, :id => "news", :class => "article"
# # => <a href="/articles" class="article" id="news">Articles</a>
#
# Be careful when using the older argument style, as an extra literal hash is needed:
#
# link_to "Articles", { :controller => "articles" }, :id => "news", :class => "article"
# # => <a href="/articles" class="article" id="news">Articles</a>
#
# Leaving the hash off gives the wrong link:
#
# link_to "WRONG!", :controller => "articles", :id => "news", :class => "article"
# # => <a href="/articles/index/news?class=article">WRONG!</a>
#
# +link_to+ can also produce links with anchors or query strings:
#
# link_to "Comment wall", profile_path(@profile, :anchor => "wall")
# # => <a href="/profiles/1#wall">Comment wall</a>
#
# link_to "Ruby on Rails search", :controller => "searches", :query => "ruby on rails"
# # => <a href="/searches?query=ruby+on+rails">Ruby on Rails search</a>
#
# link_to "Nonsense search", searches_path(:foo => "bar", :baz => "quux")
# # => <a href="/searches?foo=bar&amp;baz=quux">Nonsense search</a>

#
# ==== Options
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# * <tt>:encode</tt> - This key will accept the strings "javascript" or "hex".
# Passing "javascript" will dynamically create and encode the mailto link then
# eval it into the DOM of the page. This method will not show the link on
# the page if the user has JavaScript disabled. Passing "hex" will hex
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# encode the +email_address+ before outputting the mailto link.
# * <tt>:replace_at</tt> - When the link +name+ isn't provided, the
# +email_address+ is used for the link label. You can use this option to
# obfuscate the +email_address+ by substituting the @ sign with the string
# given as the value.
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# * <tt>:replace_dot</tt> - When the link +name+ isn't provided, the
# +email_address+ is used for the link label. You can use this option to
# obfuscate the +email_address+ by substituting the . in the email with the
# string given as the value.
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# * <tt>:subject</tt> - Preset the subject line of the email.
# * <tt>:body</tt> - Preset the body of the email.
2009-07-25 11:03:58 -04:00
# * <tt>:cc</tt> - Carbon Copy addition recipients on the email.
# * <tt>:bcc</tt> - Blind Carbon Copy additional recipients on the email.
