POShallow routes with path_prefix?
text
Body
copied!<p>Recently I changed a few nested resources in one of my applications to use shallow routing. It's working great and I've been able to simplify my views and controllers.</p> <p>However, I've been using a path_prefix before:</p> <pre><code>map.with_options :path_prefix => "blog" do |blog| blog.resources :posts do |posts| posts.resources :comments end end </code></pre> <p>Notice, that all routes are prefixed with "/blog" as expected.</p> <pre><code># $ rake routes # posts GET /blog/posts(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"index"} # POST /blog/posts(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"create"} # new_post GET /blog/posts/new(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"new"} # edit_post GET /blog/posts/:id/edit(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"edit"} # post GET /blog/posts/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"show"} # PUT /blog/posts/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"update"} # DELETE /blog/posts/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"destroy"} # post_comments GET /blog/posts/:post_id/comments(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"index"} # POST /blog/posts/:post_id/comments(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"create"} # new_post_comment GET /blog/posts/:post_id/comments/new(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"new"} # edit_post_comment GET /blog/posts/:post_id/comments/:id/edit(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"edit"} # post_comment GET /blog/posts/:post_id/comments/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"show"} # PUT /blog/posts/:post_id/comments/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"update"} # DELETE /blog/posts/:post_id/comments/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"destroy"} </code></pre> <p>The new routing configuration looks like this:</p> <pre><code>map.with_options :path_prefix => "blog", :shallow => true do |blog| blog.resources :posts do |posts| posts.resources :comments end end </code></pre> <p>Now, the "/blog" prefix is missing in some of my routes.</p> <pre><code># $ rake routes # posts GET /blog/posts(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"index"} # POST /blog/posts(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"create"} # new_post GET /blog/posts/new(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"new"} # edit_post GET /posts/:id/edit(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"edit"} # post GET /posts/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"show"} # PUT /posts/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"update"} # DELETE /posts/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"destroy"} # post_comments GET /posts/:post_id/comments(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"index"} # POST /posts/:post_id/comments(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"create"} # new_post_comment GET /posts/:post_id/comments/new(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"new"} # edit_comment GET /comments/:id/edit(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"edit"} # comment GET /comments/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"show"} # PUT /comments/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"update"} # DELETE /comments/:id(.:format) {:controller=>"comments", :action=>"destroy"} </code></pre> <p>I'm looking for a solution to get the prefixes back for all routes. I know that it's working with namespaces (<code>map.namespace :blog do</code>), but I want to prevent refactoring all my controllers/views/tests to actually use namespaces.</p> <p>All code samples are tested with Rails version 2.3.2 and Ruby 1.8.7.</p>
