If you are new with rails and hotwire, it could be useful to know that you can pass an object to the turbo_frame_tag and it will use a string representation of that object as an id.
For example if you have a Product record, you can do:
product = Product.find(1)
turbo_frame_tag(product)
And it will return:
<turbo-frame id="product_1"></turbo_frame>
And if you do
product = Product.new
turbo_frame_tag(product)
It will return:
<turbo-frame id="new_product"></turbo_frame>
This happen because internally turbo_frame_tag uses the dom_id helper.
def turbo_frame_tag(id, src: nil, target: nil, **attributes, &block)
id = id.respond_to?(:to_key) ? dom_id(id) : id
#...
end
You can see the code of the turbo_frame_tag helper here:
And the docs for the dom_id helper here:
Here I try to share knowledge and fixes to common problems and struggles for ruby on rails developers, like How to fetch the latest-N-of-each record or How to test that an specific mail was sent or a Capybara cheatsheet. You can see more examples on Most recent posts or all posts.
