2Notes

Without module

leente · Sep 30, 2011

If you want to have only the path prefix without namespacing your controller, pass :module => false.

Normal:

namespace :account do
  resources :transactions, :only => [:index]
end

account_transactions GET /account/transactions(.:format)
{:controller=>"account/transactions", :action=>"index"}

With :module => false:

namespace :account, :module => false do
  resources :transactions, :only => [:index]
end

account_transactions GET /account/transactions(.:format)
{:controller=>"transactions", :action=>"index"}

with a params constant

sebthemonster · Jan 10, 2012

If you want to have a params with the same value on all of the urls in this namespace, you can write this :

==== with a constant param :admin set to true namespace :admin, :admin => true do resources :posts end

all of the urls like /admin/post have a param :admin with the value true.

==== It works also with : scope 'admin', :admin => true do ... end

match 'administration', :admin => true => 'posts#index'

get 'administration', :admin => true

etc...
