module ActionController
# Macros are class-level calls that add pre-defined actions to the controller based on the parameters passed in.
# Currently, they're used to bridge the JavaScript macros, like autocompletion and in-place editing, with the controller
# backing.
module Macros
module AutoComplete #:nodoc:
def self.included(base) #:nodoc:
base.extend(ClassMethods)
end
# DEPRECATION WARNING: This method will become a separate plugin when Rails 2.0 ships.
#
# Example:
#
# # Controller
# class BlogController < ApplicationController
# auto_complete_for :post, :title
# end
#
# # View
# <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :post, title %>
#
# By default, auto_complete_for limits the results to 10 entries,
# and sorts by the given field.
#
# auto_complete_for takes a third parameter, an options hash to
# the find method used to search for the records:
#
# auto_complete_for :post, :title, :limit => 15, :order => 'created_at DESC'
#
# For help on defining text input fields with autocompletion,
# see ActionView::Helpers::JavaScriptHelper.
#
# For more examples, see script.aculo.us:
# * http://script.aculo.us/demos/ajax/autocompleter
# * http://script.aculo.us/demos/ajax/autocompleter_customized
