Ability to create radio button without label?

[akolomiychuk]

I want to achieve this html using form_builder

<div class="form-group">
  <label class="sr-only control-label" for="quiz_multiple_question_answer0">Answer0</label>
  <div class="input-group">
    <span class="input-group-addon">A</span>
    <input class="form-control form-control" id="quiz_multiple_question_answer0" name="quiz_multiple_question[answer0]" placeholder="Answer A" type="text">
    <span class="input-group-addon"><input id="quiz_multiple_question_solution_0" name="quiz_multiple_question[solution]" type="radio" value="0"> </span>
  </div>
</div>

with following code

f.text_field("answer#{i}".to_sym, class: 'form-control', placeholder: "Answer #{letters[i]}", hide_label: true, append: f.radio_button(:solution, i), prepend: "#{letters[i]}")

But seems that radio button cannot be created without label. I tested it on version 2.1.1, but seems that this is actual for current master too.

I already monkey-patched it locally(added no_label: true option), so I can create a PR if you approve that this is a feature which you want to have.

@akolomiychuk I would like your monkey patch code for the no_label option. I am having the same option with checkboxes. I have a series of checkboxes inside a table, each column with a heading -- no need for a label. In the mean time, I have label: "", but now I cannot check the box in my specs... (Without selecting the box by a huge id.)

Got the same issue:

= f.form_group :active, label: { text: 'Active' } do
  = f.check_box :active, hide_label: true

Give me this:

But I expected this:

@akolomiychuk I would be happy to see this PR. But why not using the hide_label option instead of no_label?

[onebree]

I agree, I would rather have hide_label, because it is still present in the document, for Capybara's sake, whereas no_label means no identifier.

@soullivaneuh on a side note, why does it say "1/12 tasks complete" under your referenced pull request? How do you enable tasks?

[soullivaneuh]

@onebree please take a look at this blog post: https://github.com/blog/1825-task-lists-in-all-markdown-documents 👍

Okay, I have tried that in an opened issue on our app, but it was not read-only. (And this was a few weeks ago). It doesn't look like the read-only format has changed at all... ALSO, does the "tasks complete" thing only appear for PR, versus issues?

[soullivaneuh]

It's not read only if you are the issue owner, or project owner maybe. For the other, it's read only.

Actually we can access default rails form builder helper using:

f.radio_button_without_bootstrap(:solution, i)

Also using label: '' for checkbox will produce proper html (http://getbootstrap.com/css/#checkboxes-and-radios-without-label-text).

@akolomiychuk Stop me if I'm wrong but it's just a workaround, isn't it?

With your method, we don't use bootstrap-forms at all, what is the advantage?

Thanks

[akolomiychuk]

There is a 2 methods actually:

1. If we need only checkbox/radio(input) you can use default form builder - cause you do not need TB there.
2. If you want to make a checkbox/radio without label as from TB documentation - you can use label: '' and it'll produce the exact html.

So there is no issue with bootstrap-forms.

@akolomiychuk As noted on the bootstrap site, saying label: '' does not work on inline forms, which appears to be what @soullivaneuh tries to do here: #161 (comment)

[soullivaneuh]

@onebree I think you're right. Have to test it again later.
