Rails 3 routes

Rails
1

Hi all am learning rails 3.2.8 and i found that in routes if i have a
controller called User and i have 5 def a, def b,def c and def d. do i
need
to mention routes to each def because in 2.3.8 you no need to mention
routes for each def but when i come to 3.2.8 i have to mention routes
for
each def in a controller like
match ‘user/new’ => ‘user#new’
match ‘user/create’ => ‘user#create’
such way for each def in a controller. is there any other way to write a
routes so that you no need to mention routes for each def.

Cheers,
Kp

You can use the resources keyword.

You can use resources in following three different ways.

resources :users

All the methods in Users controller will have routes defined if you add
above line in your routes.rb file. For example users controller have
method
#index then you will be able to open the url
http://localhost:3000/users.

resources :users, :only => [:show, :new, :create]

If you use the above line in routes.rb then you will be able to just use
the show, new and create actions of your controller.

resources :users, :except => [:index, :update, :destroy]

By using the above line you will be able to use any action in your
controller execpt index, update and destroy.

You are welcome. By the way does it solve your problem? As I am also a
newbie in rails with 2-3 months experience.

Using the scaffolding will help you observe

rails g scaffold -h # get help
rails g scaffold Product name:string url:string
Refer to the book agile web development with rails

Not quite - only the 7 standard actions (new / create / show / index /
edit
/ update / destroy) will be routed. You can write URLs that look like
they
go to other actions (/users/some_other_thing) but they’ll actually be
routed to the show action.

The Routing guide is a great reference for this stuff:
