+module ActionView
+ module RoutingUrlFor
+
+ # Returns the URL for the set of +options+ provided. This takes the
+ # same options as +url_for+ in Action Controller (see the
+ # documentation for <tt>ActionController::Base#url_for</tt>). Note that by default
+ # <tt>:only_path</tt> is <tt>true</tt> so you'll get the relative "/controller/action"
+ # instead of the fully qualified URL like "http://example.com/controller/action".
+ #
+ # ==== Options
+ # * <tt>:anchor</tt> - Specifies the anchor name to be appended to the path.
+ # * <tt>:only_path</tt> - If true, returns the relative URL (omitting the protocol, host name, and port) (<tt>true</tt> by default unless <tt>:host</tt> is specified).
+ # * <tt>:trailing_slash</tt> - If true, adds a trailing slash, as in "/archive/2005/". Note that this
+ # is currently not recommended since it breaks caching.
+ # * <tt>:host</tt> - Overrides the default (current) host if provided.
+ # * <tt>:protocol</tt> - Overrides the default (current) protocol if provided.
+ # * <tt>:user</tt> - Inline HTTP authentication (only plucked out if <tt>:password</tt> is also present).
+ # * <tt>:password</tt> - Inline HTTP authentication (only plucked out if <tt>:user</tt> is also present).
+ #
+ # ==== Relying on named routes
+ #
+ # Passing a record (like an Active Record) instead of a hash as the options parameter will
+ # trigger the named route for that record. The lookup will happen on the name of the class. So passing a
+ # Workshop object will attempt to use the +workshop_path+ route. If you have a nested route, such as
+ # +admin_workshop_path+ you'll have to call that explicitly (it's impossible for +url_for+ to guess that route).
+ #
+ # ==== Implicit Controller Namespacing
+ #
+ # Controllers passed in using the +:controller+ option will retain their namespace unless it is an absolute one.
+ #
+ # ==== Examples
+ # <%= url_for(action: 'index') %>
+ # # => /blog/
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(action: 'find', controller: 'books') %>
+ # # => /books/find
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(action: 'login', controller: 'members', only_path: false, protocol: 'https') %>
+ # # => https://www.example.com/members/login/
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(action: 'play', anchor: 'player') %>
+ # # => /messages/play/#player
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(action: 'jump', anchor: 'tax&ship') %>
+ # # => /testing/jump/#tax&ship
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(Workshop.new) %>
+ # # relies on Workshop answering a persisted? call (and in this case returning false)
+ # # => /workshops
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(@workshop) %>
+ # # calls @workshop.to_param which by default returns the id
+ # # => /workshops/5
+ #
+ # # to_param can be re-defined in a model to provide different URL names:
+ # # => /workshops/1-workshop-name
+ #
+ # <%= url_for("http://www.example.com") %>
+ # # => http://www.example.com
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(:back) %>
+ # # if request.env["HTTP_REFERER"] is set to "http://www.example.com"
+ # # => http://www.example.com
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(:back) %>
+ # # if request.env["HTTP_REFERER"] is not set or is blank
+ # # => javascript:history.back()
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(action: 'index', controller: 'users') %>
+ # # Assuming an "admin" namespace
+ # # => /admin/users
+ #
+ # <%= url_for(action: 'index', controller: '/users') %>
+ # # Specify absolute path with beginning slash
+ # # => /users
