It is possible to define aliases, i.e. actions that (also) trigger another action. This is useful to for example have an action _form that is triggered for all actions with a form (by default new, create, edit and update).
Aliases are defined by calling: GIStyle.alias(controller, action_from, action_to). It is also possible to define general aliases for all controllers by setting controller to undefined.
A few general aliases are included by default:
new, create, edit, update => _formnew, create => _new_createedit, update => _new_updateAliases can be cleared by calling either:
GIStyle.clear_aliases_for_controller(controller) orGIStyle.clear_all_aliases().It dosen't support turbolinks with version 1.x, please upgrade to 2.x if you want to make it work.
