add hyperlink to document show

[DanCa]

Hi,I am not familiar with ruby or erb and need Blackllight for presentation purpose only.
I need to make one of the fields in single document view clickable.
I've copied _show_default.html.erb file to my applicaiton folder and tried to modify it by adding
<%= link_to ('click me')%>
My question is how I can choose the proper field from solr fields.In my solr schema it is  'url'  field
I need to complete this line with proper code to make it clickable

Here is example of my _show_default.html.erb file which gives me a clickable hyperlink referenced to current page:

<%# default partial to display solr document fields in catalog show view -%>
<%= link_to ('click me')%>
<dl class="dl-horizontal  dl-invert">
    <% document_show_fields(document).each do |solr_fname, field| -%>
    <% if should_render_show_field? document, field %>
        <dt class="blacklight-<%= solr_fname.parameterize %>"><%= render_document_show_field_label document, :field => solr_fname %></dt>
        <dd class="blacklight-<%= solr_fname.parameterize %>"><%= render_document_show_field_value document, :field => solr_fname %></dd>
    <% end -%>
  <% end -%>
</dl>

Any help will be appreciated

A post can be closed,got the solution.Probably not the best one but it works,just added if condition and converted the to url:

<dl class="dl-horizontal  dl-invert">
    <% document_show_fields(document).each do |solr_fname, field| -%>
    <% if should_render_show_field? document, field %>
        <dt class="blacklight-<%= solr_fname.parameterize %>">
            <%= render_document_show_field_label document, :field => solr_fname %>
        </dt>
        <dd class="blacklight-<%= solr_fname.parameterize %>">

            <% if solr_fname=='url' %>
                       <a href=<%= render_document_show_field_value document,:field => solr_fname %> >URL </a>
            <% else %>

                      <%= render_document_show_field_value document,:field => solr_fname %>

            <% end %>

That's certainly a reasonable approach.

Another option is to use :helper_method, as described here:

https://github.com/projectblacklight/blacklight/wiki/Blacklight-configuration#using-a-helper-method-to-render-the-value

and have it spit out the correct way to render the value.

Finally, you could also override render_index_field_value and/or render_document_show_field_value to do some more targeted update.
