Edge Rails Apps Consuming 1.2 Rails Resources

Rails
1

Hi, I’m currently starting a new Rails app using Edge so I can utilize
the Active Resources client. The app I am consuming resources from is a
production 1.2.3 app (I can’t easily go Edge with it). The problem I’m
having is that Edge has changed the Resources URL structure. In my
production app, the URL for a custom action would be
/users.xml;authenticate. In Edge is is something like
/users/authenticate.xml.

s there any way to easily make them compatible or am I just SOL by this
query string change until I can update the production app to Edge Rails?

I suppose I could simply construct my own query strings in the client,
but that kinda takes the fun out of Active Resources.

I think that your best/only option is to map those custom actions
using specific named routes:

map.resources :users, :collection => {:authenticate => :get}
map.connect ‘users/authenticate.xml’, :controller => ‘users’, :action
=> ‘authenticate’, :format => ‘xml’
