Pretty URL in Rails when linking -
let's have ruby on rails blogging application post model. default able read posts http//.../post/id. i've added route
map.connect ':title', :controller => 'posts', :action => 'show'
that accept http//.../title (titles unique) , controller query title , display page. when calling <%= link_to h(post.title), post %> in view, rails still gives me links of type post/id.
is possible rails automatically create pretty links me in case?
if willing accept: http:/.../1234-title-text can do:
def to_param [id, title.parameterize].join("-") end
ar::base.find
ignores bit after id, "just works".
to make /title go away, try naming route:
map.post ':id', :controller => 'posts', :action => 'show', :conditions => {:id => /[0-9]+-.*/ }
ensure route appears after map.resources :posts
call.
