No route matches [POST]

Rails
#1

Hi,
I’m new in RoR, I need some help in the following situation:

I have 2 controllers, clinica and consultas.
Clinica is my default controller.

On /views/clinica, I have the index.html.erb default of my aplication,
and
I have there the command:

<%= button_to “Read More”, new_consulta_path, :class=>“icon
icon-arrow-right button”, %>

on the routes.rb I have:

Clinica::Application.routes.draw do

resources :clinica

resources :consultas

on /views/consultas/new.html.erb I have a form, if I write the URL
“http://localhost:3000/consultas/new” I get the form without problems.

The problem here is that when I click on the button “Read More” (on the
index default of my application on Clinica) I get the error “No route
matches [POST] “/consultas/new””. I can’t understand what is the mistake
I’m doing.

Does anyone know what is happening?
Any help is welcome!
Thank you,
Rita F.

button_to does a post request by default. if you add a :method => :get
option to it then it should work

Hi, Rita, welcome!

<%= button_to “Read More”, new_consulta_path, :class=>“icon icon-arrow-right

The issue here is that button_to automatically generates a form with a
submit button. The default method for forms in “POST” (which is why
you’re seeing that in the routing error below.

Take a look at the page source for this view to see what is being
generated.

The docs for button_to are at:
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/UrlHelper.html#method-i-button_to

You can change the method used by passing in the :method => :get option
on that call. The other thing you might look at is using link_to instead
of button_to, and making it look like a button with css classes. (It
looks like you’re using twitter bootstrap, which does this pretty
easily.)

Hi tamouse,
I tried it with button_to with the ‘tag’ :method => :get and I got no
error!
Then I decided to use link_to and I got success too!
Thank you veryyyy much :slight_smile:
