Question

I have a simple question in RoR that I couldn’t find a simple solution

I have a http://www.example.com/items folder, and I want to rename it as http://www.example.com/admin for every url.

Is there a way to do it in routes.rb? I tried this

this is the way I’m naming it on routes.rb:

Portal::Application.routes.draw do
  resources :items do
    resources :requisitos
    resources :videos
  end 

But it didn’t work.

Also, I can’t just rename the folder, as there are lots of files and links that depends on it.

Answer 1

you set the :path parameter:

match '/items' => 'items#index', :as => 'admin', :path => '/admin'

Keep in mind the order of precedence with routes. The line above will most-likely take precedence over the changed route of the second line for the path of /admin
