How to pass link options to the PhoenixHTML link with this setup - html

Question

I'm currently doing a partial template for any table with search fields. I need to generate passed from controller function names with options as links in my template.
I have already tried solution I pasted as code below. It doesn't work and I have no clue why.
Controller:
#table_links [{:show, []}, {:edit, []}, {:delete, [method: :delete, data: [confirmation: "Are you sure?"]]}]
This module attribute is assigned to conn and passed to the template.
Rendering partial:
<%= render BaseAppWeb.SharedView, "table_partial.html",
Map.merge(assigns,
%{action: Routes.admin_users_path(#conn, :index),
opts: [method: :get],
columns: #searchable_columns,
table_links: #table_links,
links_path: &Routes.admin_users_path/3}) %>
Partial links generation:
<%= for {function, options} <- #table_links do %>
<%= case function do
:show -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi-magnify\">"}
:edit -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi-pencil\">"}
:delete -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi mdi-trash-can-outline\">"}
_ -> {:safe, "<i class = \" mdi mdi-arrow-right-bold-circle-outline\">"}
end%>
<%= link(Atom.to_string(function) |> String.capitalize(), to: #links_path.(#conn, function, entity), options) %>
<% end %>
Error that is showing up:
lib/base_app_web/templates/shared/table_partial.html.eex:42: syntax error before: options
Without including options, as shown below, everything works fine, but I haven't got method: as link option, which is necessary in my case.
<%= link(Atom.to_string(function) |> String.capitalize(), to: #links_path.(#conn, function, entity)) %>
I'll really be grateful for any advice that will help me pass link options from controller to links in templates!
Edit:
Here is a table_partial.html.eex which you asked for:
<div class = "col-12">
<%= form_for #conn, #action, #opts, fn f -> %>
<%= Enum.reduce #columns, [], fn {function, {key, value}}, acc -> %>
<%= case function do
:date_input -> [acc] ++ [
build_form(f, {:label, {:from_date, "#{value} from"}}),
build_form(f, {function, {:from_date, value}}),
build_form(f, {:label, {:from_date, "#{value} to"}}),
build_form(f, {function, {:to_date, value}})]
_other -> [acc] ++ [build_form(f, {:label, {key, value}}), build_form(f, {function, {key, value}})]
end %>
<% end %>
<%= submit "Search", name: "order_by", value: "" %>
<hr>
<div class = "row">
<div class = "col-12">
<table class = "table dt-responsive nowrap talbe-borderless table-hover">
<thead class = "thead-light">
<tr>
<%= for {_function, {_key, value}} <- #searchable_columns do %>
<th><%= submit "#{value}", name: "order_by", value: "#{value}" %> </th>
<% end %>
<th>Options</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<% end %>
<tbody>
<%= for entity <- #entities do %>
<tr>
<%= for {_function, {key, _value}} <- #searchable_columns do %>
<td><%= Map.get(entity, key) %></td>
<% end %>
<td>
<%= for {function, options} <- #table_links do %>
<%= case function do
:show -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi-magnify\">"}
:edit -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi-pencil\">"}
:delete -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi mdi-trash-can-outline\">"}
_ -> {:safe, "<i class = \" mdi mdi-arrow-right-bold-circle-outline\">"}
end%>
<%= link(Atom.to_string(function) |> String.capitalize(), to: #links_path.(#conn, function, entity), options) %>
<% end %>
</td>
</tr>
<% end %>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
</div>
I can't build them normally, because I'm building multiple different tables with this template and different tables Options may vary.

Ok, if someone will look for something like this in the future - here is solution I just found to pass arguments:
Controller:
#table_links [{:show, %{:method => :get, :data => []}}, {:edit, %{:method => :get, :data => []}}, {:delete, %{:method => :delete, :data => [confirm: "Are you sure?"]}}]
table_partial.html.eex
<td>
<%= for {function, %{:method => method, :data => data}} <- #table_links do %>
<%= case function do
:show -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi-magnify\">"}
:edit -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi-pencil\">"}
:delete -> {:safe, "<i class = \"mdi mdi mdi-trash-can-outline\">"}
_ -> {:safe, "<i class = \" mdi mdi-arrow-right-bold-circle-outline\">"}
end%>
<%= link(Atom.to_string(function) |> String.capitalize(), to: #links_path.(#conn, function, entity), method: method, data: data) %>
<% end %>
</td>
That was pretty easy, however confirmation still does not work. It was because it is confirm:, not confirmation: - working good now :)

The issue is that you are trying to pass options into a keyword list. You will want to merge the lists in one of two ways. You can either do
Keyword.merge([to: #links_path.(#conn, function, entity)], options)
or
[to: #links_path.(#conn, function, entity)] ++ options
in
<%= link(Atom.to_string(function) |> String.capitalize(), to: #links_path.(#conn, function, entity), options) %>
