rails--rails/actionview/CHANGELOG.md

• Add weekday_options_for_select and weekday_select helper methods. Also adds weekday_select to FormBuilder.

  Drew Bragg, Dana Kashubeck, Kasper Timm Hansen

• Add caching? helper that returns whether the current code path is being cached and uncacheable! to denote helper methods that can't participate in fragment caching.

  Ben Toews, John Hawthorn, Kasper Timm Hansen, Joel Hawksley

• Add include_seconds option for time_field.

  <%= form.time_field :foo, include_seconds: false %>
  # => <input value="16:22" type="time" />
  

  Default includes seconds:

  <%= form.time_field :foo %>
  # => <input value="16:22:01.440" type="time" />
  

  This allows you to take advantage of different rendering options in some browsers.

  Alex Ghiculescu

• Improve error messages when template file does not exist at absolute filepath.

  Ted Whang

• Add :country_code option to sms_to for consistency with phone_to.

  Jonathan Hefner

• OpenSSL constants are now used for Digest computations.

  Dirkjan Bussink

• The translate helper now passes default values that aren't translation keys through I18n.translate for interpolation.

  Jonathan Hefner

• Adds option extname to stylesheet_link_tag to skip default .css extension appended to the stylesheet path.

  Before:

  stylesheet_link_tag "style.less"
  # <link href="/stylesheets/style.less.scss" rel="stylesheet">
  

  After:

  stylesheet_link_tag "style.less", extname: false, skip_pipeline: true, rel: "stylesheet/less"
  # <link href="/stylesheets/style.less" rel="stylesheet/less">
  

  Abhay Nikam

• Deprecate render locals to be assigned to instance variables.

  Petrik de Heus

• Remove legacy default media=screen from stylesheet_link_tag.

  André Luis Leal Cardoso Junior

• Change ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder#button to transform formmethod attributes into _method="$VERB" Form Data to enable varied same-form actions:

  <%= form_with model: post, method: :put do %>
    <%= form.button "Update" %>
    <%= form.button "Delete", formmethod: :delete %>
  <% end %>
  <%# => <form action="posts/1">
      =>   <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="put">
      =>   <button type="submit">Update</button>
      =>   <button type="submit" formmethod="post" name="_method" value="delete">Delete</button>
      => </form>
  %>
  

  Sean Doyle

• Change ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper#button_to to always render a <button> element, regardless of whether or not the content is passed as the first argument or as a block.

  <%= button_to "Delete", post_path(@post), method: :delete %>
  # => <form action="/posts/1"><input type="hidden" name="_method" value="delete"><button type="submit">Delete</button></form>
  
  <%= button_to post_path(@post), method: :delete do %>
    Delete
  <% end %>
  # => <form action="/posts/1"><input type="hidden" name="_method" value="delete"><button type="submit">Delete</button></form>
  

  Sean Doyle, Dusan Orlovic

• Add config.action_view.preload_links_header to allow disabling of the Link header being added by default when using stylesheet_link_tag and javascript_include_tag.

  Andrew White

• The translate helper now resolves default values when a nil key is specified, instead of always returning nil.

  Jonathan Hefner

• Add config.action_view.image_loading to configure the default value of the image_tag :loading option.

  By setting config.action_view.image_loading = "lazy", an application can opt in to lazy loading images sitewide, without changing view code.

  Jonathan Hefner

• ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder#id returns the value of the <form> element's id attribute. With a method argument, returns the id attribute for a form field with that name.

  <%= form_for @post do |f| %>
    <%# ... %>
  
    <% content_for :sticky_footer do %>
      <%= form.button(form: f.id) %>
    <% end %>
  <% end %>
  

  Sean Doyle

• ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder#field_id returns the value generated by the FormBuilder for the given attribute name.

  <%= form_for @post do |f| %>
    <%= f.label :title %>
    <%= f.text_field :title, aria: { describedby: f.field_id(:title, :error) } %>
    <%= tag.span("is blank", id: f.field_id(:title, :error) %>
  <% end %>
  

  Sean Doyle

• Add tag.attributes to transform a Hash into HTML Attributes, ready to be interpolated into ERB.

  <input <%= tag.attributes(type: :text, aria: { label: "Search" }) %> >
  # => <input type="text" aria-label="Search">
