copied!<p>I think namespaces is the solution to the problem you have here:</p> <pre><code>map.namespace :admin do |admin| admin.resources :customers end </code></pre> <p>Which will create routes <code>admin_customers</code>, <code>new_admin_customers</code>, etc.</p> <p>Then inside the <code>app/controller</code> directory you can have an <code>admin</code> directory. Inside your admin directory, create an admin controller:</p> <pre><code>./script/generate rspec_controller admin/admin class Admin::AdminController < ApplicationController layout "admin" before_filter :login_required end </code></pre> <p>Then create an admin customers controller:</p> <pre><code>./script/generate rspec_controller admin/customers </code></pre> <p>And make this inhert from your ApplicationController:</p> <pre><code>class Admin::CustomersController < Admin::AdminController </code></pre> <p>This will look for views in <code>app/views/admin/customers</code> and will expect a layout in <code>app/views/layouts/admin.html.erb</code>.</p> <p>You can then use whichever plugin or code you like to actually do your administration, streamline, ActiveScaffold, whatever personally I like to use <code>resourcecs_controller</code>, as it saves you a lot of time if you use a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer" rel="nofollow noreferrer">REST</a> style architecture, and forcing yourself down that route can save a lot of time elsewhere. Though if you inherited the application that's a moot point by now.</p>
