Path generation with array syntax and resources :as
Reported by Solly | May 29th, 2010 @ 01:01 AM
Rails version: 3 beta 3
Ruby version: MRI 1.9.1
Ruby environment: mingw on Windows 7 (although this is probably
irrelevant)
I have something similar to the following in my
routes.rb:
resources :teachers do
resources :school_classes :as => 'classes'
end
When I go to use the array syntax for path generation in
form_for, as such:
form_for([@teacher,@school_class])
I get the following error:
undefined method `teacher_school_classes_path' for #<#<Class:0xa734060>:0xa731ac0>
I discovered that it seems to be calling model_name on the @school_class object, which returns the model_name, but not the appropriate name for path generation, which is slightly odd, since the named paths go as such: teacher_classes_path, and the teacher_school_classes form does not exists, so shouldn't the path generator know this?

After looking through the source code, it seems that if the code
Resource.name
(or the like) were used instead of
RecordIdentifier.__send__("plural_class_name", record)
everything would function well. Unfortunately, after digging for a while, I could not find any way to retrieve a Resource object after it is used in the mapping process. Any ideas?

I'm thinking that the best way to handle this is to have a global hash (like the ActionController::Routing.routes array) that stores aliased path names. The entries would be added when resources :as was called, and then referenced during the call to polymorphic_url. I will work on creating a patch for this.

Are you looking to just change the url or do you want to change the path helper name as well?
If you just want to change the url then this should do what you want:
resources :teachers do resources :school_classes, :path => 'classes' end
