Questions on routing

ruby-talk

I have two questions on routing if any one has some space time.

  1. Is there any way to declare a resource and have its routes use
something other than :id? so that it ends up that /users/:user_name maps
to the show action

  2. I noticed when I define a custom rout like

   match '/passwords/:user_name/edit'

   I don't get any named paths that show up when I run rake routes

   Is there any way to say something like

  match '/passwords/:user_name/edit', :name => :change_password

  so that I can use it like

  link_to change_password_path @user

Thank you every one hope all is well

One forum over you'll find the Rails guys. You'll find better (and
faster!) answers to your Rails questions there. :slight_smile:

A method of solution is perfect if we can forsee from the start,
and even prove, that following that method we shall attain our aim.

match '/passwords/:user_name/edit', :name => :change_password

Don't use :name, use :as.
