+module ActionDispatch
+ module Routing
+ # In <tt>config/routes.rb</tt> you define URL-to-controller mappings, but the reverse
+ # is also possible: a URL can be generated from one of your routing definitions.
+ # URL generation functionality is centralized in this module.
+ #
+ # See ActionDispatch::Routing for general information about routing and routes.rb.
+ #
+ # <b>Tip:</b> If you need to generate URLs from your models or some other place,
+ # then ActionController::UrlFor is what you're looking for. Read on for
+ # an introduction. In general, this module should not be included on its own,
+ # as it is usually included by url_helpers (as in Rails.application.routes.url_helpers).
+ #
+ # == URL generation from parameters
+ #
+ # As you may know, some functions, such as ActionController::Base#url_for
+ # and ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper#link_to, can generate URLs given a set
+ # of parameters. For example, you've probably had the chance to write code
+ # like this in one of your views:
+ #
+ # <%= link_to('Click here', controller: 'users',
+ # action: 'new', message: 'Welcome!') %>
+ # # => <a href="/users/new?message=Welcome%21">Click here</a>
+ #
+ # link_to, and all other functions that require URL generation functionality,
+ # actually use ActionController::UrlFor under the hood. And in particular,
+ # they use the ActionController::UrlFor#url_for method. One can generate
+ # the same path as the above example by using the following code:
+ #
+ # include UrlFor
+ # url_for(controller: 'users',
+ # action: 'new',
+ # message: 'Welcome!',
+ # only_path: true)
+ # # => "/users/new?message=Welcome%21"
+ #
+ # Notice the <tt>only_path: true</tt> part. This is because UrlFor has no
+ # information about the website hostname that your Rails app is serving. So if you
+ # want to include the hostname as well, then you must also pass the <tt>:host</tt>
+ # argument:
+ #
+ # include UrlFor
+ # url_for(controller: 'users',
+ # action: 'new',
+ # message: 'Welcome!',
+ # host: 'www.example.com')
+ # # => "http://www.example.com/users/new?message=Welcome%21"
+ #
+ # By default, all controllers and views have access to a special version of url_for,
+ # that already knows what the current hostname is. So if you use url_for in your
+ # controllers or your views, then you don't need to explicitly pass the <tt>:host</tt>
+ # argument.
+ #
+ # For convenience reasons, mailers provide a shortcut for ActionController::UrlFor#url_for.
+ # So within mailers, you only have to type +url_for+ instead of 'ActionController::UrlFor#url_for'
+ # in full. However, mailers don't have hostname information, and you still have to provide
+ # the +:host+ argument or set the default host that will be used in all mailers using the
+ # configuration option +config.action_mailer.default_url_options+. For more information on
+ # url_for in mailers read the ActionMailer#Base documentation.
+ #
+ #
+ # == URL generation for named routes
+ #
+ # UrlFor also allows one to access methods that have been auto-generated from
+ # named routes. For example, suppose that you have a 'users' resource in your
+ # <tt>config/routes.rb</tt>:
+ #
+ # resources :users
+ #
+ # This generates, among other things, the method <tt>users_path</tt>. By default,
+ # this method is accessible from your controllers, views and mailers. If you need
+ # to access this auto-generated method from other places (such as a model), then
+ # you can do that by including Rails.application.routes.url_helpers in your class:
+ #
+ # class User < ActiveRecord::Base
+ # include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers
+ #
+ # def base_uri
+ # user_path(self)
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # User.find(1).base_uri # => "/users/1"
+ #
+ module UrlFor
+ extend ActiveSupport::Concern
+ include PolymorphicRoutes
+
+ included do
+ unless method_defined?(:default_url_options)
+ # Including in a class uses an inheritable hash. Modules get a plain hash.
+ if respond_to?(:class_attribute)
+ class_attribute :default_url_options
+ else
+ mattr_writer :default_url_options
+ end
+
+ self.default_url_options = {}
+ end
+
+ include(*_url_for_modules) if respond_to?(:_url_for_modules)
+ end
+
+ def initialize(*)
+ @_routes = nil
+ super
+ end
+
+ # Hook overridden in controller to add request information
+ # with +default_url_options+. Application logic should not
+ # go into url_options.
+ def url_options
+ default_url_options
+ end
+
+ # Generate a URL based on the options provided, default_url_options and the
+ # routes defined in routes.rb. The following options are supported:
+ #
+ # * <tt>:only_path</tt> - If true, the relative URL is returned. Defaults to +false+.
+ # * <tt>:protocol</tt> - The protocol to connect to. Defaults to 'http'.
+ # * <tt>:host</tt> - Specifies the host the link should be targeted at.
+ # If <tt>:only_path</tt> is false, this option must be
+ # provided either explicitly, or via +default_url_options+.
+ # * <tt>:subdomain</tt> - Specifies the subdomain of the link, using the +tld_length+
+ # to split the subdomain from the host.
+ # If false, removes all subdomains from the host part of the link.
+ # * <tt>:domain</tt> - Specifies the domain of the link, using the +tld_length+
+ # to split the domain from the host.
+ # * <tt>:tld_length</tt> - Number of labels the TLD id composed of, only used if
+ # <tt>:subdomain</tt> or <tt>:domain</tt> are supplied. Defaults to
+ # <tt>ActionDispatch::Http::URL.tld_length</tt>, which in turn defaults to 1.
+ # * <tt>:port</tt> - Optionally specify the port to connect to.
+ # * <tt>:anchor</tt> - An anchor name to be appended to the path.
+ # * <tt>:trailing_slash</tt> - If true, adds a trailing slash, as in "/archive/2009/"
+ # * <tt>:script_name</tt> - Specifies application path relative to domain root. If provided, prepends application path.
+ #
+ # Any other key (<tt>:controller</tt>, <tt>:action</tt>, etc.) given to
+ # +url_for+ is forwarded to the Routes module.
