Instance Method Details

    optional string associated with link

  • opts (Hash) (defaults to: {})

    optional Hash. In simple formats, :path is usually the only key

  • cardish (Integer, Symbol, String, Card)

    : A card identifier

def link_to_card cardish, text=nil, opts={}
  add_to_path opts, mark: Card::Name[cardish]
  link_to text, opts
end

a “resource” is essentially a reference to something that decko doesn’t recognize to be a card. Can be a remote url, a local url (that decko hasn’t parsed) or a local path.

Parameters:

  • resource (String)
  • text (String) (defaults to: nil)
  • opts (Hash) (defaults to: {})

def link_to_resource resource, text=nil, opts={}
  resource = clean_resource resource, resource_type(resource)
  link_to text, opts.merge(path: resource)
end

link to a different view of the current card

Parameters:

  • view (Symbol, String)
  • text (String) (defaults to: nil)
  • opts (Hash) (defaults to: {})

def link_to_view view, text=nil, opts={}
  add_to_path opts, view: view unless view == :home
  link_to text, opts
end

smart_link_to is wrapper method for #link_to, #link_to_card, #link_to_view, and #link_to_resource. If the opts argument contains :view, :related, :card, or :resource, it will use the respective method to render a link.

This is usually most useful when writing views that generate many different kinds of links.
