Question

I use devise, and I want generate a new object scaffold under devise user sth like:

 resources :users, :path => "/", :only => [:show] do
   resources :collections, :controller => 'users/collections'
 end

With above routes, I get this url:

http://localhost:3000/kevin_doe/collections

The problem is that if I issue this command:

rails g scaffold users/collection title:string description:text

This generate a namespace sth like:

namespace :users do resources :collections end

The route that I get is:

http://localhost:3000/users/collections

I want generate a scaffold under devise user resource.

How can I fix this problem?

Thank you!

Answer 1

The fix for this question are the next steps:

1º generate the scaffold with:

rails g scaffold collection title:string description:text

2º Modify your routes.rb file with the nested resource:

resources :users, :path => "/", :only => [:show] do
   resources :collections, :controller => 'users/collections'
 end

3º you must create a "users" folder in your controllers directory and move the collections_controller.rb to

app/controllers/users/

4º in collections_controller.rb you must modify:

class Users::CollectionsController < ApplicationController
.
.
.
end

5º In your views you must move the folder collections to app/views/users/collections

Done! :D.
