module ActionView module Helpers # Provides a set of methods for making easy links and getting urls that depend on the controller and action. This means that # you can use the same format for links in the views that you do in the controller. The different methods are even named # synchronously, so link_to uses that same url as is generated by url_for, which again is the same url used for # redirection in redirect_to. module UrlHelper # Returns the URL for the set of +options+ provided. This takes the same options # as url_for. For a list, see the url_for documentation in link:classes/ActionController/Base.html#M000079. def url_for(options = {}, *parameters_for_method_reference) options = { :only_path => true }.update(options.symbolize_keys) if options.kind_of?
