Active Resource and non default model names

Rails
1

I have a model (accessed restfully) named TranscoderQueue, it’s name
is overridden to ‘TransocderQueue’ so it is accessed as ‘/
transocder_queue’ as opposed to ‘/transocder_qeueus’.

class TranscoderQueue < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :campaign, :class_name => “Campaign”, :foreign_key =>
“campaign_id”
set_table_name “transcoder_queue” # overriding rails conventions
validates_presence_of :campaign_id, :on => :create
end

Now, when I try to use the active resource lib to interface my API, it
defaults to the rails pluralized name, ‘transcoder_queues’ –
obviously this fails with 404. How can I set active resource to obey
the overridden table name I set.

For posterity, the solution:

class TranscoderQueue < Base
set_collection_name ‘transcoder_queue’
end
