    <p>I'm just starting with Node.js and decided to go for <a href="http://locomotivejs.org/" rel="nofollow">Locomotive</a>. I'm very pleased with the functionality it offers, and the pretty exhaustive <a href="http://locomotivejs.org/guide/" rel="nofollow">documention</a> provided. Still, I don't get how I'm supposed to use the "reverse routing" functionality. In the <a href="http://locomotivejs.org/guide/routing/" rel="nofollow">routing section of the doc</a> the helpers methods are mentioned but I don't understand how to use them inside my Jade views. Here are relevant code samples:</p> <p><strong>routes.js</strong></p> <pre><code>module.exports = function routes() { this.match('myroute', 'myroute#main', {as: 'myroute'}); } </code></pre> <p><strong>controller/myroute_controller.js</strong></p> <pre><code>var Controller = require('locomotive').Controller; var myrouteController = new Controller(); myrouteController.main = function() { this.render(); } module.exports = myrouteController; </code></pre> <p><strong>views/myroute/main.jade</strong></p> <pre><code>doctype 5 html body p the path that lead here is #{myroutePath()}. </code></pre> <p>I'm expecting the <code>myroutePath()</code> to be automatically available in main.jade, and it seems to be declared, but when I render the view, the server displays this error: <code>Object #&lt;Object&gt; has no method 'urlFor'</code> near my call to <code>myroutePath()</code>. </p> <p>My guess is <code>myroutePath()</code> uses <code>urlFor()</code> internally but this last method isn't available in my view. How am I supposed to use Locomotive's <em>reverse routing</em> ?</p>

    1. COI can't comment on Locomotive, but the urlFor() does not have to be exposed to the view in order for the helper function to use it.

    2. COThat's what I thought too at the beginning, but then I really don't know where the error could come from...

    3. CO@francoisr I think you're hitting the same problem I had with Locomotive. [Here's the issue/pull request I filed for it](https://github.com/jaredhanson/locomotive/pull/69).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
