module ActionView
  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>country_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.find(: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.find(: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>
    module FormOptionsHelper
      include ERB::Util

      # 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.
      # See options_for_select for the required format of the choices parameter.
      #
      # Example with @post.person_id => 1:
      #   select("post", "person_id", Person.find(: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.
      def select(object, method, choices, options = {}, html_options = {})
        InstanceTag.new(object, method, self, options.delete(:object)).to_select_tag(choices, options, html_options)

      # 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:
      #   class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
      #     belongs_to :author
      #   end
      #   class Author < ActiveRecord::Base
      #     has_many :posts
      #     def name_with_initial
      #       "#{first_name.first}. #{last_name}"
      #     end
      #   end
      #
      # Sample usage (selecting the associated Author for an instance of Post, <tt>@post</tt>):
      #   collection_select(:post, :author_id, Author.find(:all), :id, :name_with_initial, {:prompt => true})
      #
      # If <tt>@post.author_id</tt> is already <tt>1</tt>, this would return:
      #   <select name="post[author_id]">
      #     <option value="">Please select</option>
      #     <option value="1" selected="selected">D. Heinemeier Hansson</option>
      #     <option value="2">D. Thomas</option>
      #     <option value="3">M. Clark</option>
      #   </select>

      end

      # Return select and option tags for the given object and method, using
      # #time_zone_options_for_select to generate the list of option tags.
      #
      # In addition to the <tt>:include_blank</tt> option documented above,
      # this method also supports a <tt>:model</tt> option, which defaults
      # to 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 TimeZone objects
      # as +priority_zones+, so that they will be listed above the rest of the
      # (long) list. (You can use 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 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

      # 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.

      #   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.
