How can I dynamically define the named route in a :partial in rails?
- by Angela
I have the following partial. It can be called from three different times in a view as follows:
<%= render :partial => "contact_event",
:collection => @contacts,
:locals => {:event => email} %>
Second time:
<%= render :partial => "contact_event",
:collection => @contacts,
:locals => {:event => call} %>
Third time:
<%= render :partial => "contact_event",
:collection => @contacts,
:locals => {:event => letter} %>
In each instance, call, email, letter refer to a specific instance of a Model Call, Email, or Letter.
Here is the content of the partial "contact_event":
<%= link_to_remote "Skip #{event} Remote",
:url => skip_contact_email_url(contact_event, event),
:update => "update-area-#{contact_event.id}-#{event.id}" %>
<span id='update-area-<%="#{contact_event.id}-#{event.id}"%>'> </span>
</p>
My challenge: skip_contact_email_url only works when the event refers to an email.
How can I dynamically define skip_contact_email_url to be skip_contact_letter_url if the local variable is letter?
Even better, how can I have a single named route that would do the appropriate action?
