  # = Action View Form Option Helpers
  module Helpers
    # Provides a number of methods for turning different kinds of containers into a set of option tags.
    # == Options
    # The <tt>collection_select</tt>, <tt>select</tt> and <tt>time_zone_select</tt> methods take an <tt>options</tt> parameter, a hash:
    #
    # * <tt>:include_blank</tt> - set to true or a prompt string if the first option element of the select element is a blank. Useful if there is not a default value required for the select element.
    #
    # For example,
    #
    #   select("post", "category", Post::CATEGORIES, {:include_blank => true})
    #
    # could become:
    #
    #   <select name="post[category]">
    #     <option></option>
    #     <option>joke</option>
    #     <option>poem</option>
    #   </select>
    #
    # Another common case is a select tag for an <tt>belongs_to</tt>-associated object.
    #
    # Example with @post.person_id => 2:
    #
    #   select("post", "person_id", Person.all.collect {|p| [ p.name, p.id ] }, {:include_blank => 'None'})
    #
    # could become:
    #
    #   <select name="post[person_id]">
    #     <option value="">None</option>
    #     <option value="1">David</option>
    #     <option value="2" selected="selected">Sam</option>
    #     <option value="3">Tobias</option>
    #   </select>
    #
    # * <tt>:prompt</tt> - set to true or a prompt string. When the select element doesn't have a value yet, this prepends an option with a generic prompt -- "Please select" -- or the given prompt string.
    #
    # Example:
    #
    #   select("post", "person_id", Person.all.collect {|p| [ p.name, p.id ] }, {:prompt => 'Select Person'})
    #
    # could become:
    #
    #   <select name="post[person_id]">
    #     <option value="">Select Person</option>
    #     <option value="1">David</option>
    #     <option value="2">Sam</option>
    #     <option value="3">Tobias</option>
    #   </select>
    #
    # Like the other form helpers, +select+ can accept an <tt>:index</tt> option to manually set the ID used in the resulting output. Unlike other helpers, +select+ expects this
    # option to be in the +html_options+ parameter.
    #
    # Example:
    #
    #   select("album[]", "genre", %w[rap rock country], {}, { :index => nil })
    #
    # becomes:
    #
    #   <select name="album[][genre]" id="album__genre">
    #     <option value="rap">rap</option>
    #     <option value="rock">rock</option>
    #     <option value="country">country</option>
    #   </select>
    #
    # * <tt>:disabled</tt> - can be a single value or an array of values that will be disabled options in the final output.
    #
    # Example:
    #
    #   select("post", "category", Post::CATEGORIES, {:disabled => 'restricted'})
    #
    # could become:
    #
    #   <select name="post[category]">
    #     <option></option>
    #     <option>joke</option>
    #     <option>poem</option>
    #     <option disabled="disabled">restricted</option>
    #   </select>
    #
    # When used with the <tt>collection_select</tt> helper, <tt>:disabled</tt> can also be a Proc that identifies those options that should be disabled.
    #
    # Example:
    #
    #   collection_select(:post, :category_id, Category.all, :id, :name, {:disabled => lambda{|category| category.archived? }})
    #
    # If the categories "2008 stuff" and "Christmas" return true when the method <tt>archived?</tt> is called, this would return:
    #   <select name="post[category_id]">
    #     <option value="1" disabled="disabled">2008 stuff</option>
    #     <option value="2" disabled="disabled">Christmas</option>
    #     <option value="3">Jokes</option>
    #     <option value="4">Poems</option>
    #   </select>
    #
    module FormOptionsHelper
      # ERB::Util can mask some helpers like textilize. Make sure to include them.
      include TextHelper

      # Create a select tag and a series of contained option tags for the provided object and method.
      # The option currently held by the object will be selected, provided that the object is available.
      #
      # There are two possible formats for the choices parameter, corresponding to other helpers' output:
      #   * A flat collection: see options_for_select
      #   * A nested collection: see grouped_options_for_select
      #
      # Example with @post.person_id => 1:
      #   select("post", "person_id", Person.all.collect {|p| [ p.name, p.id ] }, { :include_blank => true })
      #
      # could become:
      #
      #   <select name="post[person_id]">
      #     <option value=""></option>
      #     <option value="1" selected="selected">David</option>
      #     <option value="2">Sam</option>
      #     <option value="3">Tobias</option>
      #   </select>
      #
      # This can be used to provide a default set of options in the standard way: before rendering the create form, a
      # new model instance is assigned the default options and bound to @model_name. Usually this model is not saved
      # to the database. Instead, a second model object is created when the create request is received.
      # This allows the user to submit a form page more than once with the expected results of creating multiple records.
      # In addition, this allows a single partial to be used to generate form inputs for both edit and create forms.
      #
      # By default, <tt>post.person_id</tt> is the selected option. Specify <tt>:selected => value</tt> to use a different selection
      # or <tt>:selected => nil</tt> to leave all options unselected. Similarly, you can specify values to be disabled in the option
      # tags by specifying the <tt>:disabled</tt> option. This can either be a single value or an array of values to be disabled.
      #
      # ==== Gotcha
      #
      # The HTML specification says when +multiple+ parameter passed to select and all options got deselected
      # web browsers do not send any value to server. Unfortunately this introduces a gotcha:
      # if an +User+ model has many +roles+ and have +role_ids+ accessor, and in the form that edits roles of the user
      # the user deselects all roles from +role_ids+ multiple select box, no +role_ids+ parameter is sent. So,
      # any mass-assignment idiom like
      #
      #   @user.update_attributes(params[:user])
      #
      # wouldn't update roles.
      #
      # To prevent this the helper generates an auxiliary hidden field before
      # every multiple select. The hidden field has the same name as multiple select and blank value.
      #
      # This way, the client either sends only the hidden field (representing
      # the deselected multiple select box), 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.
      #
      def select(object, method, choices, options = {}, html_options = {})
        Tags::Select.new(object, method, self, choices, options, html_options).render
      end

      # Returns <tt><select></tt> and <tt><option></tt> tags for the collection of existing return values of
      # +method+ for +object+'s class. The value returned from calling +method+ on the instance +object+ will
      # be selected. If calling +method+ returns +nil+, no selection is made without including <tt>:prompt</tt>
      # or <tt>:include_blank</tt> in the +options+ hash.
      #
      # The <tt>:value_method</tt> and <tt>:text_method</tt> parameters are methods to be called on each member
      # of +collection+. The return values are used as the +value+ attribute and contents of each
      # <tt><option></tt> tag, respectively.
      #
      # Example object structure for use with this method:

      # * +group_method+ - The name of a method which, when called on a member of +collection+, returns an
      #   array of child objects representing the <tt><option></tt> tags.
      # * +group_label_method+ - The name of a method which, when called on a member of +collection+, returns a
      #   string to be used as the +label+ attribute for its <tt><optgroup></tt> tag.
      # * +option_key_method+ - The name of a method which, when called on a child object of a member of
      #   +collection+, returns a value to be used as the +value+ attribute for its <tt><option></tt> tag.
      # * +option_value_method+ - The name of a method which, when called on a child object of a member of
      #   +collection+, returns a value to be used as the contents of its <tt><option></tt> tag.
      #
      # Example object structure for use with this method:

      #
      # In addition to the <tt>:include_blank</tt> option documented above,
      # this method also supports a <tt>:model</tt> option, which defaults
      # to ActiveSupport::TimeZone. This may be used by users to specify a
      # different time zone model object. (See +time_zone_options_for_select+
      # for more information.)
      #
      # You can also supply an array of ActiveSupport::TimeZone objects
      # as +priority_zones+, so that they will be listed above the rest of the
      # (long) list. (You can use ActiveSupport::TimeZone.us_zones as a convenience
      # for obtaining a list of the US time zones, or a Regexp to select the zones
      # of your choice)
      #
      # Finally, this method supports a <tt>:default</tt> option, which selects
      # a default ActiveSupport::TimeZone if the object's time zone is +nil+.
      #
      # Examples:
      #   time_zone_select( "user", "time_zone", nil, :include_blank => true)
      #

      # Accepts a container (hash, array, enumerable, your type) and returns a string of option tags. Given a container
      # where the elements respond to first and last (such as a two-element array), the "lasts" serve as option values and
      # the "firsts" as option text. Hashes are turned into this form automatically, so the keys become "firsts" and values
      # become lasts. If +selected+ is specified, the matching "last" or element will get the selected option-tag. +selected+
      # may also be an array of values to be selected when using a multiple select.
      #
      # Examples (call, result):
      #   options_for_select([["Dollar", "$"], ["Kroner", "DKK"]])
      #     <option value="$">Dollar</option>\n<option value="DKK">Kroner</option>
      #
      #   options_for_select([ "VISA", "MasterCard" ], "MasterCard")
      #     <option>VISA</option>\n<option selected="selected">MasterCard</option>
      #
      #   options_for_select({ "Basic" => "$20", "Plus" => "$40" }, "$40")
      #     <option value="$20">Basic</option>\n<option value="$40" selected="selected">Plus</option>
      #
      #   options_for_select([ "VISA", "MasterCard", "Discover" ], ["VISA", "Discover"])
      #     <option selected="selected">VISA</option>\n<option>MasterCard</option>\n<option selected="selected">Discover</option>
      #
      # You can optionally provide html attributes as the last element of the array.
      #
      # Examples:
      #   options_for_select([ "Denmark", ["USA", {:class => 'bold'}], "Sweden" ], ["USA", "Sweden"])
      #     <option value="Denmark">Denmark</option>\n<option value="USA" class="bold" selected="selected">USA</option>\n<option value="Sweden" selected="selected">Sweden</option>
      #
      #   options_for_select([["Dollar", "$", {:class => "bold"}], ["Kroner", "DKK", {:onclick => "alert('HI');"}]])
      #     <option value="$" class="bold">Dollar</option>\n<option value="DKK" onclick="alert('HI');">Kroner</option>
      #
      # If you wish to specify disabled option tags, set +selected+ to be a hash, with <tt>:disabled</tt> being either a value
      # or array of values to be disabled. In this case, you can use <tt>:selected</tt> to specify selected option tags.
      #
      # Examples:
      #   options_for_select(["Free", "Basic", "Advanced", "Super Platinum"], :disabled => "Super Platinum")
      #     <option value="Free">Free</option>\n<option value="Basic">Basic</option>\n<option value="Advanced">Advanced</option>\n<option value="Super Platinum" disabled="disabled">Super Platinum</option>
      #
      #   options_for_select(["Free", "Basic", "Advanced", "Super Platinum"], :disabled => ["Advanced", "Super Platinum"])
      #     <option value="Free">Free</option>\n<option value="Basic">Basic</option>\n<option value="Advanced" disabled="disabled">Advanced</option>\n<option value="Super Platinum" disabled="disabled">Super Platinum</option>
      #
      #   options_for_select(["Free", "Basic", "Advanced", "Super Platinum"], :selected => "Free", :disabled => "Super Platinum")
      #     <option value="Free" selected="selected">Free</option>\n<option value="Basic">Basic</option>\n<option value="Advanced">Advanced</option>\n<option value="Super Platinum" disabled="disabled">Super Platinum</option>

      # Returns a string of option tags that have been compiled by iterating over the +collection+ and assigning
      # the result of a call to the +value_method+ as the option value and the +text_method+ as the option text.
      # Example:
      #   options_from_collection_for_select(@people, 'id', 'name')
      # This will output the same HTML as if you did this:
      #   <option value="#{person.id}">#{person.name}</option>

      # This is more often than not used inside a #select_tag like this example:

      #
      # If +selected+ is specified as a value or array of values, the element(s) returning a match on +value_method+
      # will be selected option tag(s).

      # If +selected+ is specified as a Proc, those members of the collection that return true for the anonymous

      #
      # Parameters:
      # * +collection+ - An array of objects representing the <tt><optgroup></tt> tags.
      # * +group_method+ - The name of a method which, when called on a member of +collection+, returns an
      #   array of child objects representing the <tt><option></tt> tags.
      # * group_label_method+ - The name of a method which, when called on a member of +collection+, returns a
      #   string to be used as the +label+ attribute for its <tt><optgroup></tt> tag.
      # * +option_key_method+ - The name of a method which, when called on a child object of a member of
      #   +collection+, returns a value to be used as the +value+ attribute for its <tt><option></tt> tag.
      # * +option_value_method+ - The name of a method which, when called on a child object of a member of
      #   +collection+, returns a value to be used as the contents of its <tt><option></tt> tag.
      # * +selected_key+ - A value equal to the +value+ attribute for one of the <tt><option></tt> tags,
      #   which will have the +selected+ attribute set. Corresponds to the return value of one of the calls
      #   to +option_key_method+. If +nil+, no selection is made. Can also be a hash if disabled values are
      #   to be specified.

      #
      # Parameters:
      # * +grouped_options+ - Accepts a nested array or hash of strings. The first value serves as the
      #   <tt><optgroup></tt> label while the second value must be an array of options. The second value can be a
      #   nested array of text-value pairs. See <tt>options_for_select</tt> for more info.
      #    Ex. ["North America",[["United States","US"],["Canada","CA"]]]
      # * +selected_key+ - A value equal to the +value+ attribute for one of the <tt><option></tt> tags,
      #   which will have the +selected+ attribute set. Note: It is possible for this value to match multiple options
      #   as you might have the same option in multiple groups. Each will then get <tt>selected="selected"</tt>.
      # * +prompt+ - set to true or a prompt string. When the select element doesn't have a value yet, this
      #   prepends an option with a generic prompt - "Please select" - or the given prompt string.
