Using helper class for boolean button

My button is as follows

<% if user.active == true  %>
        <%= button_to "Block", user_path(id: user.id, active: false), class: 'btn btn-outline-dark',  method:  :patch %>
        <%else%>
        <%= button_to "Unblock", user_path(id: user.id, active: true), class: 'btn btn-outline-dark',  method: :patch %>
        <%end%>

I need to have helper class for the above view code instead of repeating the button twice. Can anyone help me with it

In helpers: 

def block_button(is_active)
  button_to is_active ? 'Block' : 'Unblock', user_path(id: user.id, active: !is_active), class: 'btn btn-outline-dark',  method:  :patch
end

In template

<%= block_button(user.active) %>

Or you can just provide the logic inside button_to helper:

<%= button_to (user.active ? "Block" : "Unblock"), user_path(id: user.id, active: !user.active), class: 'btn btn-outline-dark',  method:  :patch %>

Thus, if you still think it's verbose, you can move (user.active ? "Block" : "Unblock") logic into a helper of decorator.
