I would like to serve different feeds eg: xml, csv etc. which will be  
created on request and will be served from the controller named feeds.

the action names will be xml and csv.

how can i setup the routes that i show the proper feeds at:

[http://www.somesite.com/feeds/xml.xml](http://www.somesite.com/feeds/xml.xml)  
[http://www.somesite.com/feeds/csv.csv](http://www.somesite.com/feeds/csv.csv)

currently the related items I have in my routes.rb are:

map.resources :feeds

map.connect ‘:controller/:action.:format’

any help in this regard is greatly appriciated.

Try:

map.resources :feeds, :collection =\> {:xml =\> :get, :csv =\> :get}
