# Creates an anchor element of the given +name+ using a URL created by the set of +options+.
# See the valid options in the documentation for +url_for+. It's also possible to
# pass a String instead of an options hash, which generates an anchor element that uses the
# value of the String as the href for the link. Using a <tt>:back</tt> Symbol instead
# of an options hash will generate a link to the referrer (a JavaScript back link
# will be used in place of a referrer if none exists). If +nil+ is passed as the name
# the value of the link itself will become the name.
#
# ==== Signatures
#
# link_to(body, url, html_options = {})
# # url is a String; you can use URL helpers like
# # posts_path
#
# link_to(body, url_options = {}, html_options = {})
# # url_options, except :method, is passed to url_for
#
# link_to(options = {}, html_options = {}) do
# # name
# end
#
# link_to(url, html_options = {}) do
# # name
# end
#
# ==== Options
# * <tt>:data</tt> - This option can be used to add custom data attributes.
# * <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>, <tt>:patch</tt>, and <tt>:put</tt>.
# Note that if the user has JavaScript disabled, the request will fall back
# 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>, <tt>patch?</tt>, or <tt>put?</tt>.
# * <tt>remote: true</tt> - This will allow the unobtrusive JavaScript
# driver to make an Ajax request to the URL in question instead of following
# the link. The drivers each provide mechanisms for listening for the
# completion of the Ajax request and performing JavaScript operations once
# they're complete
#
# ==== Data attributes
#
# * <tt>confirm: 'question?'</tt> - This will allow the unobtrusive JavaScript
# driver to prompt with the question specified (in this case, the
# resulting text would be <tt>question?</tt>. If the user accepts, the
# link is processed normally, otherwise no action is taken.
# * <tt>:disable_with</tt> - Value of this parameter will be
# used as the value for a disabled version of the submit
# button when the form is submitted. This feature is provided
# by the unobtrusive JavaScript driver.
#
# ==== Examples
# Because it relies on +url_for+, +link_to+ supports both older-style controller/action/id arguments
# and newer RESTful routes. Current Rails style favors RESTful routes whenever possible, so base
# your application on resources and use
#
# link_to "Profile", profile_path(@profile)
# # => <a href="/profiles/1">Profile</a>
#
# or the even pithier
#
# link_to "Profile", @profile
# # => <a href="/profiles/1">Profile</a>
#
# in place of the older more verbose, non-resource-oriented
#
# link_to "Profile", controller: "profiles", action: "show", id: @profile
# # => <a href="/profiles/show/1">Profile</a>
#
# Similarly,
#
# link_to "Profiles", profiles_path
# # => <a href="/profiles">Profiles</a>
#
# is better than
#
# link_to "Profiles", controller: "profiles"
# # => <a href="/profiles">Profiles</a>
#
# You can use a block as well if your link target is hard to fit into the name parameter. ERB example:
#
# <%= link_to(@profile) do %>
# <strong><%= @profile.name %></strong> -- <span>Check it out!</span>
# <% end %>
# # => <a href="/profiles/1">
# <strong>David</strong> -- <span>Check it out!</span>
# </a>
#
# 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&baz=quux">Nonsense search</a>
#
# The only option specific to +link_to+ (<tt>:method</tt>) is used as follows:
#
# link_to("Destroy", "http://www.example.com", method: :delete)
# # => <a href='http://www.example.com' rel="nofollow" data-method="delete">Destroy</a>
#
# You can also use custom data attributes using the <tt>:data</tt> option:
#
# link_to "Visit Other Site", "http://www.rubyonrails.org/", data: { confirm: "Are you sure?" }
# # => <a href="http://www.rubyonrails.org/" data-confirm="Are you sure?">Visit Other Site</a>
#
# Also you can set any link attributes such as <tt>target</tt>, <tt>rel</tt>, <tt>type</tt>:
#
# link_to "External link", "http://www.rubyonrails.org/", target: "_blank", rel: "nofollow"
# # => <a href="http://www.rubyonrails.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">External link</a>

end
# Generates a form containing a single button that submits to the URL created
# by the set of +options+. This is the safest method to ensure links that
# cause changes to your data are not triggered by search bots or accelerators.
# If the HTML button does not work with your layout, you can also consider
# using the +link_to+ method with the <tt>:method</tt> modifier as described in
# the +link_to+ documentation.
#
# By default, the generated form element has a class name of <tt>button_to</tt>
# to allow styling of the form itself and its children. This can be changed
# using the <tt>:form_class</tt> modifier within +html_options+. You can control
# the form submission and input element behavior using +html_options+.
# This method accepts the <tt>:method</tt> modifier described in the +link_to+ documentation.
# If no <tt>:method</tt> modifier is given, it will default to performing a POST operation.
# You can also disable the button by passing <tt>disabled: true</tt> in +html_options+.
# If you are using RESTful routes, you can pass the <tt>:method</tt>
# to change the HTTP verb used to submit the form.
#
# ==== Options
# The +options+ hash accepts the same options as +url_for+.
#
# There are a few special +html_options+:
# * <tt>:method</tt> - Symbol of HTTP verb. Supported verbs are <tt>:post</tt>, <tt>:get</tt>,
# <tt>:delete</tt>, <tt>:patch</tt>, and <tt>:put</tt>. By default it will be <tt>:post</tt>.
# * <tt>:disabled</tt> - If set to true, it will generate a disabled button.
# * <tt>:data</tt> - This option can be used to add custom data attributes.
# * <tt>:remote</tt> - If set to true, will allow the Unobtrusive JavaScript drivers to control the
# submit behavior. By default this behavior is an ajax submit.
# * <tt>:form</tt> - This hash will be form attributes
# * <tt>:form_class</tt> - This controls the class of the form within which the submit button will
# be placed
# * <tt>:params</tt> - Hash of parameters to be rendered as hidden fields within the form.
#
# ==== Data attributes
#
# * <tt>:confirm</tt> - This will use the unobtrusive JavaScript driver to
# prompt with the question specified. If the user accepts, the link is
# processed normally, otherwise no action is taken.
# * <tt>:disable_with</tt> - Value of this parameter will be
# used as the value for a disabled version of the submit
# button when the form is submitted. This feature is provided
# by the unobtrusive JavaScript driver.
#

# Creates a link tag of the given +name+ using a URL created by the set of
# +options+ unless the current request URI is the same as the links, in
# which case only the name is returned (or the given block is yielded, if
# one exists). You can give +link_to_unless_current+ a block which will
# specialize the default behavior (e.g., show a "Start Here" link rather
# than the link's text).
#
# ==== Examples
# Let's say you have a navigation menu...
#
# <ul id="navbar">
# <li><%= link_to_unless_current("Home", { action: "index" }) %></li>
# <li><%= link_to_unless_current("About Us", { action: "about" }) %></li>
# </ul>
#
# If in the "about" action, it will render...
#
# <ul id="navbar">
# <li><a href="/controller/index">Home</a></li>
# <li>About Us</li>
# </ul>
#
# ...but if in the "index" action, it will render:
#
# <ul id="navbar">
# <li>Home</li>
# <li><a href="/controller/about">About Us</a></li>
# </ul>
#
# The implicit block given to +link_to_unless_current+ is evaluated if the current
# action is the action given. So, if we had a comments page and wanted to render a
# "Go Back" link instead of a link to the comments page, we could do something like this...
#
# <%=
# link_to_unless_current("Comment", { controller: "comments", action: "new" }) do
# link_to("Go back", { controller: "posts", action: "index" })
# end
# %>

# Creates a link tag of the given +name+ using a URL created by the set of

# accepts the name or the full argument list for +link_to_unless+.
#
# ==== Examples
# <%= link_to_unless(@current_user.nil?, "Reply", { action: "reply" }) %>
# # If the user is logged in...
# # => <a href="/controller/reply/">Reply</a>

# Creates a mailto link tag to the specified +email_address+, which is
# also used as the name of the link unless +name+ is specified. Additional
# HTML attributes for the link can be passed in +html_options+.
#
# +mail_to+ has several methods for customizing the email itself by
# passing special keys to +html_options+.
#
# ==== Options
# * <tt>:subject</tt> - Preset the subject line of the email.
# * <tt>:body</tt> - Preset the body of the email.
# * <tt>:cc</tt> - Carbon Copy additional recipients on the email.
# * <tt>:bcc</tt> - Blind Carbon Copy additional recipients on the email.

#
# ==== Obfuscation
# Prior to Rails 4.0, +mail_to+ provided options for encoding the address
# in order to hinder email harvesters. To take advantage of these options,
# install the +actionview-encoded_mail_to+ gem.
#
# ==== Examples
# mail_to "me@domain.com"
# # => <a href="mailto:me@domain.com">me@domain.com</a>
#
# mail_to "me@domain.com", "My email"
# # => <a href="mailto:me@domain.com">My email</a>
#
# mail_to "me@domain.com", "My email", cc: "ccaddress@domain.com",
# subject: "This is an example email"
# # => <a href="mailto:me@domain.com?cc=ccaddress@domain.com&subject=This%20is%20an%20example%20email">My email</a>
#
# You can use a block as well if your link target is hard to fit into the name parameter. ERB example:
#
# <%= mail_to "me@domain.com" do %>
# <strong>Email me:</strong> <span>me@domain.com</span>
# <% end %>
