You may wish to organize groups of controllers under a namespace. Most
commonly, you might group a number of administrative controllers under an
admin
namespace. You would place these controllers under the
app/controllers/admin
directory, and you can group them
together in your router:
namespace "admin" do resources :posts, :comments end
This will create a number of routes for each of the posts and comments
controller. For Admin::PostsController
, Rails will create:
GET /admin/posts GET /admin/posts/new POST /admin/posts GET /admin/posts/1 GET /admin/posts/1/edit PATCH/PUT /admin/posts/1 DELETE /admin/posts/1
If you want to route /posts (without the prefix /admin) to
Admin::PostsController
, you could use
scope module: "admin" do resources :posts end
or, for a single case
resources :posts, module: "admin"
If you want to route /admin/posts to PostsController
- (without the Admin
-
module prefix), you could use
scope "/admin" do resources :posts end
or, for a single case
resources :posts, path: "/admin/posts"
In each of these cases, the named routes remain the same as if you did not
use scope. In the last case, the following paths map to
PostsController
:
GET /admin/posts GET /admin/posts/new POST /admin/posts GET /admin/posts/1 GET /admin/posts/1/edit PATCH/PUT /admin/posts/1 DELETE /admin/posts/1
