# = Action View Form Helpers
module Helpers
# Form helpers are designed to make working with resources much easier
# compared to using vanilla HTML.
#
# Typically, a form designed to create or update a resource reflects the
# identity of the resource in several ways: (i) the url that the form is
# sent to (the form element's +action+ attribute) should result in a request
# being routed to the appropriate controller action (with the appropriate <tt>:id</tt>
# parameter in the case of an existing resource), (ii) input fields should
# be named in such a way that in the controller their values appear in the
# appropriate places within the +params+ hash, and (iii) for an existing record,
# when the form is initially displayed, input fields corresponding to attributes
# of the resource should show the current values of those attributes.
#
# In Rails, this is usually achieved by creating the form using +form_for+ and
# a number of related helper methods. +form_for+ generates an appropriate <tt>form</tt>
# tag and yields a form builder object that knows the model the form is about.
# Input fields are created by calling methods defined on the form builder, which
# means they are able to generate the appropriate names and default values
# corresponding to the model attributes, as well as convenient IDs, etc.
# Conventions in the generated field names allow controllers to receive form data
# nicely structured in +params+ with no effort on your side.
#
# For example, to create a new person you typically set up a new instance of
# +Person+ in the <tt>PeopleController#new</tt> action, <tt>@person</tt>, and
# in the view template pass that object to +form_for+:
#
# <%= form_for @person do |f| %>
# <%= f.label :first_name %>:
# <%= f.text_field :first_name %><br />
#
# <%= f.label :last_name %>:
# <%= f.text_field :last_name %><br />
#
# <%= f.submit %>
# <% end %>
#
# The HTML generated for this would be (modulus formatting):
#
# <form action="/people" class="new_person" id="new_person" method="post">
# <div style="display:none">
# <input name="authenticity_token" type="hidden" value="NrOp5bsjoLRuK8IW5+dQEYjKGUJDe7TQoZVvq95Wteg=" />
# </div>
# <label for="person_first_name">First name</label>:
# <input id="person_first_name" name="person[first_name]" type="text" /><br />
#
# <label for="person_last_name">Last name</label>:
# <input id="person_last_name" name="person[last_name]" type="text" /><br />
#
# <input name="commit" type="submit" value="Create Person" />
# </form>
#
# As you see, the HTML reflects knowledge about the resource in several spots,
# like the path the form should be submitted to, or the names of the input fields.
#
# In particular, thanks to the conventions followed in the generated field names, the
# controller gets a nested hash <tt>params[:person]</tt> with the person attributes
# set in the form. That hash is ready to be passed to <tt>Person.create</tt>:
#
# if @person = Person.create(params[:person])
# # success
# else
# # error handling
# end
#
# Interestingly, the exact same view code in the previous example can be used to edit
# a person. If <tt>@person</tt> is an existing record with name "John Smith" and ID 256,
# the code above as is would yield instead:
#
# <form action="/people/256" class="edit_person" id="edit_person_256" method="post">
# <div style="display:none">
# <input name="_method" type="hidden" value="patch" />
# <input name="authenticity_token" type="hidden" value="NrOp5bsjoLRuK8IW5+dQEYjKGUJDe7TQoZVvq95Wteg=" />
# </div>
# <label for="person_first_name">First name</label>:
# <input id="person_first_name" name="person[first_name]" type="text" value="John" /><br />
#
# <label for="person_last_name">Last name</label>:
# <input id="person_last_name" name="person[last_name]" type="text" value="Smith" /><br />
#
# <input name="commit" type="submit" value="Update Person" />
# </form>
#
# Note that the endpoint, default values, and submit button label are tailored for <tt>@person</tt>.
# That works that way because the involved helpers know whether the resource is a new record or not,
# and generate HTML accordingly.
#
# The controller would receive the form data again in <tt>params[:person]</tt>, ready to be
# passed to <tt>Person#update</tt>:
#
# if @person.update(params[:person])
# # success
# else
# # error handling
# end
#
# That's how you typically work with resources.
module FormHelper
extend ActiveSupport::Concern
include FormTagHelper
include UrlHelper
include ModelNaming
# Creates a form that allows the user to create or update the attributes
# of a specific model object.
#
# The method can be used in several slightly different ways, depending on
# how much you wish to rely on Rails to infer automatically from the model
# how the form should be constructed. For a generic model object, a form
# can be created by passing +form_for+ a string or symbol representing
# the object we are concerned with:
#
# <%= form_for :person do |f| %>
# First name: <%= f.text_field :first_name %><br />
# Last name : <%= f.text_field :last_name %><br />
# Biography : <%= f.text_area :biography %><br />
# Admin? : <%= f.check_box :admin %><br />
# <%= f.submit %>
# <% end %>
#
# The variable +f+ yielded to the block is a FormBuilder object that
# incorporates the knowledge about the model object represented by
# <tt>:person</tt> passed to +form_for+. Methods defined on the FormBuilder
# are used to generate fields bound to this model. Thus, for example,
#
# <%= f.text_field :first_name %>
#
# will get expanded to
#
# <%= text_field :person, :first_name %>
# which results in an html <tt><input></tt> tag whose +name+ attribute is
# <tt>person[first_name]</tt>. This means that when the form is submitted,
# the value entered by the user will be available in the controller as
# <tt>params[:person][:first_name]</tt>.
#
# For fields generated in this way using the FormBuilder,
# if <tt>:person</tt> also happens to be the name of an instance variable
# <tt>@person</tt>, the default value of the field shown when the form is
# initially displayed (e.g. in the situation where you are editing an
# existing record) will be the value of the corresponding attribute of
# <tt>@person</tt>.
#
# The rightmost argument to +form_for+ is an
# optional hash of options -
#
# * <tt>:url</tt> - The URL the form is to be submitted to. This may be
# represented in the same way as values passed to +url_for+ or +link_to+.
# So for example you may use a named route directly. When the model is
# represented by a string or symbol, as in the example above, if the
# <tt>:url</tt> option is not specified, by default the form will be
# sent back to the current url (We will describe below an alternative
# resource-oriented usage of +form_for+ in which the URL does not need
# to be specified explicitly).
# * <tt>:namespace</tt> - A namespace for your form to ensure uniqueness of
# id attributes on form elements. The namespace attribute will be prefixed
# with underscore on the generated HTML id.
# * <tt>:html</tt> - Optional HTML attributes for the form tag.
#
# Also note that +form_for+ doesn't create an exclusive scope. It's still
# possible to use both the stand-alone FormHelper methods and methods
# from FormTagHelper. For example:
#
# <%= form_for :person do |f| %>
# First name: <%= f.text_field :first_name %>
# Last name : <%= f.text_field :last_name %>
# Biography : <%= text_area :person, :biography %>
# Admin? : <%= check_box_tag "person[admin]", "1", @person.company.admin? %>
# <%= f.submit %>
# <% end %>
#
# This also works for the methods in FormOptionHelper and DateHelper that
# are designed to work with an object as base, like
# FormOptionHelper#collection_select and DateHelper#datetime_select.
#
# === #form_for with a model object
#
# In the examples above, the object to be created or edited was
# represented by a symbol passed to +form_for+, and we noted that
# a string can also be used equivalently. It is also possible, however,
# to pass a model object itself to +form_for+. For example, if <tt>@post</tt>
# is an existing record you wish to edit, you can create the form using
#
# <%= form_for @post do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# This behaves in almost the same way as outlined previously, with a
# couple of small exceptions. First, the prefix used to name the input
# elements within the form (hence the key that denotes them in the +params+
# hash) is actually derived from the object's _class_, e.g. <tt>params[:post]</tt>
# if the object's class is +Post+. However, this can be overwritten using
# the <tt>:as</tt> option, e.g. -
#
# <%= form_for(@person, as: :client) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# would result in <tt>params[:client]</tt>.
#
# Secondly, the field values shown when the form is initially displayed
# are taken from the attributes of the object passed to +form_for+,
# regardless of whether the object is an instance
# variable. So, for example, if we had a _local_ variable +post+
# representing an existing record,
#
# <%= form_for post do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# would produce a form with fields whose initial state reflect the current
# values of the attributes of +post+.
#
# === Resource-oriented style
#
# In the examples just shown, although not indicated explicitly, we still
# need to use the <tt>:url</tt> option in order to specify where the
# form is going to be sent. However, further simplification is possible
# if the record passed to +form_for+ is a _resource_, i.e. it corresponds
# to a set of RESTful routes, e.g. defined using the +resources+ method
# in <tt>config/routes.rb</tt>. In this case Rails will simply infer the
# appropriate URL from the record itself. For example,
#
# <%= form_for @post do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# is then equivalent to something like:
#
# <%= form_for @post, as: :post, url: post_path(@post), method: :patch, html: { class: "edit_post", id: "edit_post_45" } do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# And for a new record
#
# <%= form_for(Post.new) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# is equivalent to something like:
#
# <%= form_for @post, as: :post, url: posts_path, html: { class: "new_post", id: "new_post" } do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# However you can still overwrite individual conventions, such as:
#
# <%= form_for(@post, url: super_posts_path) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# You can also set the answer format, like this:
#
# <%= form_for(@post, format: :json) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# For namespaced routes, like +admin_post_url+:
#
# <%= form_for([:admin, @post]) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# If your resource has associations defined, for example, you want to add comments
# to the document given that the routes are set correctly:
#
# <%= form_for([@document, @comment]) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# Where <tt>@document = Document.find(params[:id])</tt> and
# <tt>@comment = Comment.new</tt>.
#
# === Setting the method
#
# You can force the form to use the full array of HTTP verbs by setting
#
# method: (:get|:post|:patch|:put|:delete)
#
# in the options hash. If the verb is not GET or POST, which are natively
# supported by HTML forms, the form will be set to POST and a hidden input
# called _method will carry the intended verb for the server to interpret.
#
# === Unobtrusive JavaScript
#
# Specifying:
#
# remote: true
#
# in the options hash creates a form that will allow the unobtrusive JavaScript drivers to modify its
# behavior. The expected default behavior is an XMLHttpRequest in the background instead of the regular
# POST arrangement, but ultimately the behavior is the choice of the JavaScript driver implementor.
# Even though it's using JavaScript to serialize the form elements, the form submission will work just like
# a regular submission as viewed by the receiving side (all elements available in <tt>params</tt>).
#
# Example:
#
# <%= form_for(@post, remote: true) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# The HTML generated for this would be:
#
# <form action='http://www.example.com' method='post' data-remote='true'>
# <div style='display:none'>
# <input name='_method' type='hidden' value='patch' />
# </div>
# ...
# </form>
#
# === Setting HTML options
#
# You can set data attributes directly by passing in a data hash, but all other HTML options must be wrapped in
# the HTML key. Example:
#
# <%= form_for(@post, data: { behavior: "autosave" }, html: { name: "go" }) do |f| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# The HTML generated for this would be:
#
# <form action='http://www.example.com' method='post' data-behavior='autosave' name='go'>
# <div style='display:none'>
# <input name='_method' type='hidden' value='patch' />
# </div>
# ...
# </form>
#
# === Removing hidden model id's
#
# The form_for method automatically includes the model id as a hidden field in the form.
# This is used to maintain the correlation between the form data and its associated model.
# Some ORM systems do not use IDs on nested models so in this case you want to be able
# to disable the hidden id.
#
# In the following example the Post model has many Comments stored within it in a NoSQL database,
# thus there is no primary key for comments.
#
# Example:
#
# <%= form_for(@post) do |f| %>
# <%= f.fields_for(:comments, include_id: false) do |cf| %>
# ...
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
#
# === Customized form builders
#
# You can also build forms using a customized FormBuilder class. Subclass
# FormBuilder and override or define some more helpers, then use your
# custom builder. For example, let's say you made a helper to
# automatically add labels to form inputs.
#
# <%= form_for @person, url: { action: "create" }, builder: LabellingFormBuilder do |f| %>
# <%= f.text_field :first_name %>
# <%= f.text_field :last_name %>
# <%= f.text_area :biography %>
# <%= f.check_box :admin %>
# <%= f.submit %>
# <% end %>
#
# In this case, if you use this:
#
# <%= render f %>
#
# The rendered template is <tt>people/_labelling_form</tt> and the local
# variable referencing the form builder is called
# <tt>labelling_form</tt>.
#
# The custom FormBuilder class is automatically merged with the options
# of a nested fields_for call, unless it's explicitly set.
#
# In many cases you will want to wrap the above in another helper, so you
# could do something like the following:
#
# def labelled_form_for(record_or_name_or_array, *args, &block)
# options = args.extract_options!
# form_for(record_or_name_or_array, *(args << options.merge(builder: LabellingFormBuilder)), &block)
# end
#
# If you don't need to attach a form to a model instance, then check out
# FormTagHelper#form_tag.
#
# === Form to external resources
#
# When you build forms to external resources sometimes you need to set an authenticity token or just render a form
# without it, for example when you submit data to a payment gateway number and types of fields could be limited.
#
# To set an authenticity token you need to pass an <tt>:authenticity_token</tt> parameter
#
# <%= form_for @invoice, url: external_url, authenticity_token: 'external_token' do |f|
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# If you don't want to an authenticity token field be rendered at all just pass <tt>false</tt>:
#
# <%= form_for @invoice, url: external_url, authenticity_token: false do |f|
# ...
# <% end %>
def form_for(record, options = {}, &block)

private :apply_form_for_options!
# Creates a scope around a specific model object like form_for, but
# doesn't create the form tags themselves. This makes fields_for suitable
# for specifying additional model objects in the same form.
#
# Although the usage and purpose of +field_for+ is similar to +form_for+'s,
# its method signature is slightly different. Like +form_for+, it yields
# a FormBuilder object associated with a particular model object to a block,
# and within the block allows methods to be called on the builder to
# generate fields associated with the model object. Fields may reflect
# a model object in two ways - how they are named (hence how submitted
# values appear within the +params+ hash in the controller) and what
# default values are shown when the form the fields appear in is first
# displayed. In order for both of these features to be specified independently,
# both an object name (represented by either a symbol or string) and the
# object itself can be passed to the method separately -
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# First name: <%= person_form.text_field :first_name %>
# Last name : <%= person_form.text_field :last_name %>
#
# <%= fields_for :permission, @person.permission do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin? : <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# <%= f.submit %>
# <% end %>
#
# In this case, the checkbox field will be represented by an HTML +input+
# tag with the +name+ attribute <tt>permission[admin]</tt>, and the submitted
# value will appear in the controller as <tt>params[:permission][:admin]</tt>.
# If <tt>@person.permission</tt> is an existing record with an attribute
# +admin+, the initial state of the checkbox when first displayed will
# reflect the value of <tt>@person.permission.admin</tt>.
#
# Often this can be simplified by passing just the name of the model
# object to +fields_for+ -
#
# <%= fields_for :permission do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin?: <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# ...in which case, if <tt>:permission</tt> also happens to be the name of an
# instance variable <tt>@permission</tt>, the initial state of the input
# field will reflect the value of that variable's attribute <tt>@permission.admin</tt>.
#
# Alternatively, you can pass just the model object itself (if the first
# argument isn't a string or symbol +fields_for+ will realize that the
# name has been omitted) -
#
# <%= fields_for @person.permission do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin?: <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# and +fields_for+ will derive the required name of the field from the
# _class_ of the model object, e.g. if <tt>@person.permission</tt>, is
# of class +Permission+, the field will still be named <tt>permission[admin]</tt>.
#
# Note: This also works for the methods in FormOptionHelper and
# DateHelper that are designed to work with an object as base, like
# FormOptionHelper#collection_select and DateHelper#datetime_select.
#
# === Nested Attributes Examples
#
# When the object belonging to the current scope has a nested attribute
# writer for a certain attribute, fields_for will yield a new scope
# for that attribute. This allows you to create forms that set or change
# the attributes of a parent object and its associations in one go.
#
# Nested attribute writers are normal setter methods named after an
# association. The most common way of defining these writers is either
# with +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ in a model definition or by
# defining a method with the proper name. For example: the attribute
# writer for the association <tt>:address</tt> is called
# <tt>address_attributes=</tt>.
#
# Whether a one-to-one or one-to-many style form builder will be yielded
# depends on whether the normal reader method returns a _single_ object
# or an _array_ of objects.
#
# ==== One-to-one
#
# Consider a Person class which returns a _single_ Address from the
# <tt>address</tt> reader method and responds to the
# <tt>address_attributes=</tt> writer method:
#
# class Person
# def address
# @address
# end
#
# def address_attributes=(attributes)
# # Process the attributes hash
# end
# end
#
# This model can now be used with a nested fields_for, like so:
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <%= person_form.fields_for :address do |address_fields| %>
# Street : <%= address_fields.text_field :street %>
# Zip code: <%= address_fields.text_field :zip_code %>
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# When address is already an association on a Person you can use
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ to define the writer method for you:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_one :address
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :address
# end
#
# If you want to destroy the associated model through the form, you have
# to enable it first using the <tt>:allow_destroy</tt> option for
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_one :address
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :address, allow_destroy: true
# end
#
# Now, when you use a form element with the <tt>_destroy</tt> parameter,
# with a value that evaluates to +true+, you will destroy the associated
# model (eg. 1, '1', true, or 'true'):
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <%= person_form.fields_for :address do |address_fields| %>
# ...
# Delete: <%= address_fields.check_box :_destroy %>
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# ==== One-to-many
#
# Consider a Person class which returns an _array_ of Project instances
# from the <tt>projects</tt> reader method and responds to the
# <tt>projects_attributes=</tt> writer method:
#
# class Person
# def projects
# [@project1, @project2]
# end
#
# def projects_attributes=(attributes)
# # Process the attributes hash
# end
# end
#
# Note that the <tt>projects_attributes=</tt> writer method is in fact
# required for fields_for to correctly identify <tt>:projects</tt> as a
# collection, and the correct indices to be set in the form markup.
#
# When projects is already an association on Person you can use
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ to define the writer method for you:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_many :projects
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :projects
# end
#
# This model can now be used with a nested fields_for. The block given to
# the nested fields_for call will be repeated for each instance in the
# collection:
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...

# Returns a label tag tailored for labelling an input field for a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object
# assigned to the template (identified by +object+). The text of label will default to the attribute name unless a translation

# onto the HTML as an HTML element attribute as in the example shown, except for the <tt>:value</tt> option, which is designed to

#
# ==== Examples
# label(:post, :title)
# # => <label for="post_title">Title</label>
#
# You can localize your labels based on model and attribute names.
# For example you can define the following in your locale (e.g. en.yml)
#
# helpers:
# label:
# post:
# body: "Write your entire text here"
#
# Which then will result in
#
# label(:post, :body)
# # => <label for="post_body">Write your entire text here</label>
#
# Localization can also be based purely on the translation of the attribute-name
# (if you are using ActiveRecord):
#
# activerecord:
# attributes:
# post:
# cost: "Total cost"
#
# label(:post, :cost)
# # => <label for="post_cost">Total cost</label>
#
# label(:post, :title, "A short title")
# # => <label for="post_title">A short title</label>

# Returns a checkbox tag tailored for accessing a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object
# assigned to the template (identified by +object+). This object must be an instance object (@object) and not a local object.
# It's intended that +method+ returns an integer and if that integer is above zero, then the checkbox is checked.
# Additional options on the input tag can be passed as a hash with +options+. The +checked_value+ defaults to 1
# while the default +unchecked_value+ is set to 0 which is convenient for boolean values.
#
# ==== Gotcha
#
# The HTML specification says unchecked check boxes are not successful, and
# thus web browsers do not send them. Unfortunately this introduces a gotcha:
# if an +Invoice+ model has a +paid+ flag, and in the form that edits a paid
# invoice the user unchecks its check box, no +paid+ parameter is sent. So,
# any mass-assignment idiom like
#
# @invoice.update(params[:invoice])
#
# wouldn't update the flag.
#
# To prevent this the helper generates an auxiliary hidden field before
# the very check box. The hidden field has the same name and its
# attributes mimic an unchecked check box.
#
# This way, the client either sends only the hidden field (representing
# the check box is unchecked), or both fields. Since the HTML specification
# says key/value pairs have to be sent in the same order they appear in the
# form, and parameters extraction gets the last occurrence of any repeated
# key in the query string, that works for ordinary forms.
#
# Unfortunately that workaround does not work when the check box goes
# within an array-like parameter, as in
#
# <%= fields_for "project[invoice_attributes][]", invoice, index: nil do |form| %>
# <%= form.check_box :paid %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# because parameter name repetition is precisely what Rails seeks to distinguish
# the elements of the array. For each item with a checked check box you
# get an extra ghost item with only that attribute, assigned to "0".
#
# In that case it is preferable to either use +check_box_tag+ or to use
# hashes instead of arrays.
#
# # Let's say that @post.validated? is 1:
# check_box("post", "validated")
# # => <input name="post[validated]" type="hidden" value="0" />
# # <input checked="checked" type="checkbox" id="post_validated" name="post[validated]" value="1" />
#
# # Let's say that @puppy.gooddog is "no":
# check_box("puppy", "gooddog", {}, "yes", "no")
# # => <input name="puppy[gooddog]" type="hidden" value="no" />
# # <input type="checkbox" id="puppy_gooddog" name="puppy[gooddog]" value="yes" />
#
# check_box("eula", "accepted", { class: 'eula_check' }, "yes", "no")

# A +FormBuilder+ object is associated with a particular model object and

# For example:
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# Name: <%= person_form.text_field :name %>
# Admin: <%= person_form.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# In the above block, the a +FormBuilder+ object is yielded as the
# +person_form+ variable. This allows you to generate the +text_field+
# and +check_box+ fields by specifying their eponymous methods, which
# modify the underlying template and associates the +@person+ model object
# with the form.
#
# The +FormBuilder+ object can be thought of as serving as a proxy for the
# methods in the +FormHelper+ module. This class, however, allows you to
# call methods with the model object you are building the form for.
#
# You can create your own custom FormBuilder templates by subclassing this
# class. For example:
#
# class MyFormBuilder < ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder
# def div_radio_button(method, tag_value, options = {})
# @template.content_tag(:div,
# @template.radio_button(
# @object_name, method, tag_value, objectify_options(options)
# )
# )
# end
#
# The above code creates a new method +div_radio_button+ which wraps a div
# around the a new radio button. Note that when options are passed in, you
# must called +objectify_options+ in order for the model object to get
# correctly passed to the method. If +objectify_options+ is not called,
# then the newly created helper will not be linked back to the model.
#
# The +div_radio_button+ code from above can now be used as follows:
#
# <%= form_for @person, :builder => MyFormBuilder do |f| %>
# I am a child: <%= f.div_radio_button(:admin, "child") %>
# I am an adult: <%= f.div_radio_button(:admin, "adult") %>

# Creates a scope around a specific model object like form_for, but
# doesn't create the form tags themselves. This makes fields_for suitable
# for specifying additional model objects in the same form.
#
# Although the usage and purpose of +field_for+ is similar to +form_for+'s,
# its method signature is slightly different. Like +form_for+, it yields
# a FormBuilder object associated with a particular model object to a block,
# and within the block allows methods to be called on the builder to
# generate fields associated with the model object. Fields may reflect
# a model object in two ways - how they are named (hence how submitted
# values appear within the +params+ hash in the controller) and what
# default values are shown when the form the fields appear in is first
# displayed. In order for both of these features to be specified independently,
# both an object name (represented by either a symbol or string) and the
# object itself can be passed to the method separately -
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# First name: <%= person_form.text_field :first_name %>
# Last name : <%= person_form.text_field :last_name %>
#
# <%= fields_for :permission, @person.permission do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin? : <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# <%= person_form.submit %>
# <% end %>
#
# In this case, the checkbox field will be represented by an HTML +input+
# tag with the +name+ attribute <tt>permission[admin]</tt>, and the submitted
# value will appear in the controller as <tt>params[:permission][:admin]</tt>.
# If <tt>@person.permission</tt> is an existing record with an attribute
# +admin+, the initial state of the checkbox when first displayed will
# reflect the value of <tt>@person.permission.admin</tt>.
#
# Often this can be simplified by passing just the name of the model
# object to +fields_for+ -
#
# <%= fields_for :permission do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin?: <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# ...in which case, if <tt>:permission</tt> also happens to be the name of an
# instance variable <tt>@permission</tt>, the initial state of the input
# field will reflect the value of that variable's attribute <tt>@permission.admin</tt>.
#
# Alternatively, you can pass just the model object itself (if the first
# argument isn't a string or symbol +fields_for+ will realize that the
# name has been omitted) -
#
# <%= fields_for @person.permission do |permission_fields| %>
# Admin?: <%= permission_fields.check_box :admin %>
# <% end %>
#
# and +fields_for+ will derive the required name of the field from the
# _class_ of the model object, e.g. if <tt>@person.permission</tt>, is
# of class +Permission+, the field will still be named <tt>permission[admin]</tt>.
#
# Note: This also works for the methods in FormOptionHelper and
# DateHelper that are designed to work with an object as base, like
# FormOptionHelper#collection_select and DateHelper#datetime_select.
#
# === Nested Attributes Examples
#
# When the object belonging to the current scope has a nested attribute
# writer for a certain attribute, fields_for will yield a new scope
# for that attribute. This allows you to create forms that set or change
# the attributes of a parent object and its associations in one go.
#
# Nested attribute writers are normal setter methods named after an
# association. The most common way of defining these writers is either
# with +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ in a model definition or by
# defining a method with the proper name. For example: the attribute
# writer for the association <tt>:address</tt> is called
# <tt>address_attributes=</tt>.
#
# Whether a one-to-one or one-to-many style form builder will be yielded
# depends on whether the normal reader method returns a _single_ object
# or an _array_ of objects.
#
# ==== One-to-one
#
# Consider a Person class which returns a _single_ Address from the
# <tt>address</tt> reader method and responds to the
# <tt>address_attributes=</tt> writer method:
#
# class Person
# def address
# @address
# end
#
# def address_attributes=(attributes)
# # Process the attributes hash
# end
# end
#
# This model can now be used with a nested fields_for, like so:
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <%= person_form.fields_for :address do |address_fields| %>
# Street : <%= address_fields.text_field :street %>
# Zip code: <%= address_fields.text_field :zip_code %>
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# When address is already an association on a Person you can use
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ to define the writer method for you:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_one :address
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :address
# end
#
# If you want to destroy the associated model through the form, you have
# to enable it first using the <tt>:allow_destroy</tt> option for
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_one :address
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :address, allow_destroy: true
# end
#
# Now, when you use a form element with the <tt>_destroy</tt> parameter,
# with a value that evaluates to +true+, you will destroy the associated
# model (eg. 1, '1', true, or 'true'):
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <%= person_form.fields_for :address do |address_fields| %>
# ...
# Delete: <%= address_fields.check_box :_destroy %>
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# ==== One-to-many
#
# Consider a Person class which returns an _array_ of Project instances
# from the <tt>projects</tt> reader method and responds to the
# <tt>projects_attributes=</tt> writer method:
#
# class Person
# def projects
# [@project1, @project2]
# end
#
# def projects_attributes=(attributes)
# # Process the attributes hash
# end
# end
#
# Note that the <tt>projects_attributes=</tt> writer method is in fact
# required for fields_for to correctly identify <tt>:projects</tt> as a
# collection, and the correct indices to be set in the form markup.
#
# When projects is already an association on Person you can use
# +accepts_nested_attributes_for+ to define the writer method for you:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_many :projects
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :projects
# end
#
# This model can now be used with a nested fields_for. The block given to
# the nested fields_for call will be repeated for each instance in the
# collection:
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <%= person_form.fields_for :projects do |project_fields| %>
# <% if project_fields.object.active? %>
# Name: <%= project_fields.text_field :name %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# It's also possible to specify the instance to be used:
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <% @person.projects.each do |project| %>
# <% if project.active? %>
# <%= person_form.fields_for :projects, project do |project_fields| %>
# Name: <%= project_fields.text_field :name %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# Or a collection to be used:
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <%= person_form.fields_for :projects, @active_projects do |project_fields| %>
# Name: <%= project_fields.text_field :name %>
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# If you want to destroy any of the associated models through the
# form, you have to enable it first using the <tt>:allow_destroy</tt>
# option for +accepts_nested_attributes_for+:
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_many :projects
# accepts_nested_attributes_for :projects, allow_destroy: true
# end
#
# This will allow you to specify which models to destroy in the
# attributes hash by adding a form element for the <tt>_destroy</tt>
# parameter with a value that evaluates to +true+
# (eg. 1, '1', true, or 'true'):
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <%= person_form.fields_for :projects do |project_fields| %>
# Delete: <%= project_fields.check_box :_destroy %>
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# When a collection is used you might want to know the index of each
# object into the array. For this purpose, the <tt>index</tt> method
# is available in the FormBuilder object.
#
# <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %>
# ...
# <%= person_form.fields_for :projects do |project_fields| %>
# Project #<%= project_fields.index %>
# ...
# <% end %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# Note that fields_for will automatically generate a hidden field
# to store the ID of the record. There are circumstances where this
# hidden field is not needed and you can pass <tt>include_id: false</tt>
# to prevent fields_for from rendering it automatically.

# Returns a label tag tailored for labelling an input field for a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object
# assigned to the template (identified by +object+). The text of label will default to the attribute name unless a translation
# is found in the current I18n locale (through helpers.label.<modelname>.<attribute>) or you specify it explicitly.
# Additional options on the label tag can be passed as a hash with +options+. These options will be tagged
# onto the HTML as an HTML element attribute as in the example shown, except for the <tt>:value</tt> option, which is designed to
# target labels for radio_button tags (where the value is used in the ID of the input tag).
#
# ==== Examples
# label(:post, :title)
# # => <label for="post_title">Title</label>
#
# You can localize your labels based on model and attribute names.
# For example you can define the following in your locale (e.g. en.yml)
#
# helpers:
# label:
# post:
# body: "Write your entire text here"
#
# Which then will result in
#
# label(:post, :body)
# # => <label for="post_body">Write your entire text here</label>
#
# Localization can also be based purely on the translation of the attribute-name
# (if you are using ActiveRecord):
#
# activerecord:
# attributes:
# post:
# cost: "Total cost"
#
# label(:post, :cost)
# # => <label for="post_cost">Total cost</label>
#
# label(:post, :title, "A short title")
# # => <label for="post_title">A short title</label>
#
# label(:post, :title, "A short title", class: "title_label")
# # => <label for="post_title" class="title_label">A short title</label>
#
# label(:post, :privacy, "Public Post", value: "public")
# # => <label for="post_privacy_public">Public Post</label>
#
# label(:post, :terms) do
# 'Accept <a href="/terms">Terms</a>.'.html_safe
# end

# Returns a checkbox tag tailored for accessing a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object
# assigned to the template (identified by +object+). This object must be an instance object (@object) and not a local object.
# It's intended that +method+ returns an integer and if that integer is above zero, then the checkbox is checked.
# Additional options on the input tag can be passed as a hash with +options+. The +checked_value+ defaults to 1
# while the default +unchecked_value+ is set to 0 which is convenient for boolean values.
#
# ==== Gotcha
#
# The HTML specification says unchecked check boxes are not successful, and
# thus web browsers do not send them. Unfortunately this introduces a gotcha:
# if an +Invoice+ model has a +paid+ flag, and in the form that edits a paid
# invoice the user unchecks its check box, no +paid+ parameter is sent. So,
# any mass-assignment idiom like
#
# @invoice.update(params[:invoice])
#
# wouldn't update the flag.
#
# To prevent this the helper generates an auxiliary hidden field before
# the very check box. The hidden field has the same name and its
# attributes mimic an unchecked check box.
#
# This way, the client either sends only the hidden field (representing
# the check box is unchecked), or both fields. Since the HTML specification
# says key/value pairs have to be sent in the same order they appear in the
# form, and parameters extraction gets the last occurrence of any repeated
# key in the query string, that works for ordinary forms.
#
# Unfortunately that workaround does not work when the check box goes
# within an array-like parameter, as in
#
# <%= fields_for "project[invoice_attributes][]", invoice, index: nil do |form| %>
# <%= form.check_box :paid %>
# ...
# <% end %>
#
# because parameter name repetition is precisely what Rails seeks to distinguish
# the elements of the array. For each item with a checked check box you
# get an extra ghost item with only that attribute, assigned to "0".
#
# In that case it is preferable to either use +check_box_tag+ or to use
# hashes instead of arrays.
#
# # Let's say that @post.validated? is 1:
# check_box("post", "validated")
# # => <input name="post[validated]" type="hidden" value="0" />
# # <input checked="checked" type="checkbox" id="post_validated" name="post[validated]" value="1" />
#
# # Let's say that @puppy.gooddog is "no":
# check_box("puppy", "gooddog", {}, "yes", "no")
# # => <input name="puppy[gooddog]" type="hidden" value="no" />
# # <input type="checkbox" id="puppy_gooddog" name="puppy[gooddog]" value="yes" />
#
# check_box("eula", "accepted", { class: 'eula_check' }, "yes", "no")
# # => <input name="eula[accepted]" type="hidden" value="no" />
# # <input type="checkbox" class="eula_check" id="eula_accepted" name="eula[accepted]" value="yes" />
def check_box(method, options = {}, checked_value = "1", unchecked_value = "0")
@template.check_box(@object_name, method, objectify_options(options), checked_value, unchecked_value)
end
# Returns a radio button tag for accessing a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object

# radio button will be checked.
#
# To force the radio button to be checked pass <tt>checked: true</tt> in the
# +options+ hash. You may pass HTML options there as well.
#
# # Let's say that @post.category returns "rails":
# radio_button("post", "category", "rails")
# radio_button("post", "category", "java")
# # => <input type="radio" id="post_category_rails" name="post[category]" value="rails" checked="checked" />

#
# Using this method inside a +form_for+ block will set the enclosing form's encoding to <tt>multipart/form-data</tt>.
#
# ==== Options
# * Creates standard HTML attributes for the tag.
# * <tt>:disabled</tt> - If set to true, the user will not be able to use this input.
# * <tt>:multiple</tt> - If set to true, *in most updated browsers* the user will be allowed to select multiple files.
# * <tt>:accept</tt> - If set to one or multiple mime-types, the user will be suggested a filter when choosing a file. You still need to set up model validations.
