require 'action_controller/model_naming' module ActionDispatch module Routing # Polymorphic URL helpers are methods for smart resolution to a named route call when # given an Active Record model instance. They are to be used in combination with # ActionController::Resources. # # These methods are useful when you want to generate correct URL or path to a RESTful # resource without having to know the exact type of the record in question. # # Nested resources and/or namespaces are also supported, as illustrated in the example: # # polymorphic_url([:admin, @article, @comment]) # # results in: # # admin_article_comment_url(@article, @comment) # # == Usage within the framework # # Polymorphic URL helpers are used in a number of places throughout the \Rails framework: # # * url_for, so you can use it with a record as the argument, e.g. # url_for(@article); # * ActionView::Helpers::FormHelper uses polymorphic_path, so you can write # form_for(@article) without having to specify :url parameter for the form # action; # * redirect_to (which, in fact, uses url_for) so you can write # redirect_to(post) in your controllers; # * ActionView::Helpers::AtomFeedHelper, so you don't have to explicitly specify URLs # for feed entries. # # == Prefixed polymorphic helpers # # In addition to polymorphic_url and polymorphic_path methods, a # number of prefixed helpers are available as a shorthand to action: "..." # in options. Those are: # # * edit_polymorphic_url, edit_polymorphic_path # * new_polymorphic_url, new_polymorphic_path # # Example usage: # # edit_polymorphic_path(@post) # => "/posts/1/edit" # polymorphic_path(@post, format: :pdf) # => "/posts/1.pdf" # # == Usage with mounted engines # # If you are using a mounted engine and you need to use a polymorphic_url # pointing at the engine's routes, pass in the engine's route proxy as the first # argument to the method. For example: # # polymorphic_url([blog, @post]) # calls blog.post_path(@post) # form_for([blog, @post]) # => "/blog/posts/1" # module PolymorphicRoutes include ActionController::ModelNaming # Constructs a call to a named RESTful route for the given record and returns the # resulting URL string. For example: # # # calls post_url(post) # polymorphic_url(post) # => "http://example.com/posts/1" # polymorphic_url([blog, post]) # => "http://example.com/blogs/1/posts/1" # polymorphic_url([:admin, blog, post]) # => "http://example.com/admin/blogs/1/posts/1" # polymorphic_url([user, :blog, post]) # => "http://example.com/users/1/blog/posts/1" # polymorphic_url(Comment) # => "http://example.com/comments" # # ==== Options # # * :action - Specifies the action prefix for the named route: # :new or :edit. Default is no prefix. # * :routing_type - Allowed values are :path or :url. # Default is :url. # # Also includes all the options from url_for. These include such # things as :anchor or :trailing_slash. Example usage # is given below: # # polymorphic_url([blog, post], anchor: 'my_anchor') # # => "http://example.com/blogs/1/posts/1#my_anchor" # polymorphic_url([blog, post], anchor: 'my_anchor', script_name: "/my_app") # # => "http://example.com/my_app/blogs/1/posts/1#my_anchor" # # For all of these options, see the documentation for url_for. # # ==== Functionality # # # an Article record # polymorphic_url(record) # same as article_url(record) # # # a Comment record # polymorphic_url(record) # same as comment_url(record) # # # it recognizes new records and maps to the collection # record = Comment.new # polymorphic_url(record) # same as comments_url() # # # the class of a record will also map to the collection # polymorphic_url(Comment) # same as comments_url() # def polymorphic_url(record_or_hash_or_array, options = {}) if record_or_hash_or_array.kind_of?(Array) record_or_hash_or_array = record_or_hash_or_array.compact if record_or_hash_or_array.first.is_a?(ActionDispatch::Routing::RoutesProxy) proxy = record_or_hash_or_array.shift end record_or_hash_or_array = record_or_hash_or_array[0] if record_or_hash_or_array.size == 1 end record = extract_record(record_or_hash_or_array) record = convert_to_model(record) args = Array === record_or_hash_or_array ? record_or_hash_or_array.dup : [ record_or_hash_or_array ] inflection = if options[:action] && options[:action].to_s == "new" args.pop :singular elsif (record.respond_to?(:persisted?) && !record.persisted?) args.pop :plural elsif record.is_a?(Class) args.pop :plural else :singular end args.delete_if {|arg| arg.is_a?(Symbol) || arg.is_a?(String)} named_route = build_named_route_call(record_or_hash_or_array, inflection, options) url_options = options.except(:action, :routing_type) unless url_options.empty? args.last.kind_of?(Hash) ? args.last.merge!(url_options) : args << url_options end args.collect! { |a| convert_to_model(a) } (proxy || self).send(named_route, *args) end # Returns the path component of a URL for the given record.
