Question

How to make nested route actions act as a first-class member?

resources :links do
  resources :favorites
end

I would like to make actions of FavoritesController (favorite/unfavorite or create/destroy) act like first-class members of LinksController inside routes, e.g. /link/:id/unfavorite..
Would that be RESTful? Or should I put favorite/unfavorite actions right inside LinksController?

Answer 1

I guess you want something like that:

resources :links do
   member do
     get :favorite
     get :unfavorite
   end
end

You must define favorite and unfavorite actions in your LinksController.
