instance method `dom_id`

Ruby on Rails 4.1.16

Since v4.0.13

Available in: v4.0.13 v4.1.16 v4.2.9 v5.2.8.1 v6.0.6 v6.1.7.10 v7.0.10 v7.1.6 v7.2.3 v8.0.4 v8.1.2

Compare with:

dom_id(record, prefix = nil)

The DOM id convention is to use the singular form of an object or class with the id following an underscore. If no id is found, prefix with “new_” instead.

dom_id(Post.find(45))       # => "post_45"
dom_id(Post.new)            # => "new_post"

If you need to address multiple instances of the same class in the same view, you can prefix the dom_id:

dom_id(Post.find(45), :edit) # => "edit_post_45"
dom_id(Post.new, :custom)    # => "custom_post"

Parameters

record req
prefix opt = nil
