Module | ActionController::UrlWriter |
In: |
vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/url_rewriter.rb
|
Write URLs from arbitrary places in your codebase, such as your mailers.
Example:
class MyMailer include ActionController::UrlWriter default_url_options[:host] = 'www.basecamphq.com' def signup_url(token) url_for(:controller => 'signup', action => 'index', :token => token) end end
In addition to providing url_for, named routes are also accessible after including UrlWriter.
Generate a url based on the options provided, default_url_options and the routes defined in routes.rb. The following options are supported:
Any other key(:controller, :action, etc…) given to url_for is forwarded to the Routes module.
Examples:
url_for :controller => 'tasks', :action => 'testing', :host=>'somehost.org', :port=>'8080' # => 'http://somehost.org:8080/tasks/testing' url_for :controller => 'tasks', :action => 'testing', :host=>'somehost.org', :anchor => 'ok', :only_path => true # => '/tasks/testing#ok' url_for :controller => 'tasks', :action => 'testing', :host=>'somehost.org', :number => '33' # => 'http://somehost.org/tasks/testing?number=33'
