  @bootstrap_action_classes = { :show => 'btn', :edit => 'btn', :destroy => 'btn btn-danger' }
  @bootstrap_action_icons = { :show => 'icon-eye-open', :edit => 'icon-pencil', :destroy => 'icon-remove icon-white' }
  @action_icons = { :show => 'eye-open', :edit => 'pencil', :destroy => 'remove' }
end

• Namespaced objects

  action_links [:manage, @product]
  

• Return just the link with optional parameters

  =action_link :edit, @event
  // or more advanced
  =action_link :clone, @event, link_wrapper: :li, url: url_for([:clone, @event]), icon: 'copy', text: 'Copy', class: 'btn'

• You can even pass in custom attributes with the :html tag

  =action_link :clone, @event, class: 'btn', html: { id: 'super_cool_clone_button' }
  // NOTE: if you define 'class' in the :html hash, it will overwrite the default class,
  //       otherwise you can define class outside of the :html hash like in the above example 
  //       and it will be added to the default value.
