Namespacing conventions

Rails

I compared the output from ``rake routes’’ for each solution below,
and they both produce the exact same routes. Is one solution preferred
over the over?

Solution #1:

map.resource :account do |account|
account.resources :properties, :controller => ‘account/properties’
account.resources :photos, :controller => ‘account/photos’
end

Solution #2:

map.resource :account
map.namespace :account do |account|
account.resources :photos
account.resources :properties
end

Cheers,
Nick

I guess you have the answer in your question… You don’t need the
controller part so it would look like this:

map.resource :account do |account|
account.resources :properties
account.resources :photos
end

Hi Freddy. Leaving out the :controller part results in the properties
and photos nested resources using their non-namespaced controllers:
