Returns a string used for submit button label

This private method returns the label used for the `f.submit` helper.

apidock.com/rails/v5.2.3/ActionView/Helpers/FormBuilder/submit

<%= form_for @post do |f| %>
  <%= f.submit %>
<% end %>

In the example above, if @post is a new record, this method returns “Create Post” as submit button label; otherwise, it uses “Update Post”.

This method also checks for custom language using I18n under the helpers.submit key and using %{model} for translation interpolation:

en:
  helpers:
    submit:
      create: "Create a %{model}"
      update: "Confirm changes to %{model}"

It also searches for a key specific to the given object:

en:
  helpers:
    submit:
      post:
        create: "Add %{model}"
