Rails: Multi-submit buttons in one Form

Question

Say I have an Article model, and in the article \'new\' view I have two buttons, \"Publish\" and \"Save Draft\".

My question is how can I know which button is clicke

Answer 1

it can also be done on the form_for helper like this

 <%= f.submit "Publish",name: "publish", class: "tiny button radius success" %>
 <%= f.submit 'Mark as Draft', name: "draft", class: "tiny button radius " %>

and the logic is the same on the controller

   if params[:publish]
      // your code
   elsif params[:draft]
      // your code
   end
