Rails doesn't create route for "controller#new" action - ruby-on-rails

I get a weird behavior when trying to do a super easy task:
adding
resources :something do
...
end
to the routes.rb generates all routes except #new.
when trying to browse 'localhost:3001/somethings/new' it handled by #show action.
I'm using rails 5.1.4 version. Any ideas?
======== UPDATE ========
I added s and still have the same problem: Here is the full code example and the result:
namespace :api do
namespace :webapp do
resources :user do
resources :documents
end
end
end
I was able to make it work when added:
resources :documents , only: [:show, :index, :update, :edit, :new, :create]

Routing Error uninitialized constant Meetups

I am currently stuck getting a Routing Error for uninitialized constant Meetups
class MeetupsController < ApplicationController
before_action :set_meetup, only: [:edit, :update, :destroy]
def create
#meetup = Meetup.new(host: current_user)
#meetup.save
redirect_to meetup_create_path(Wicked::FIRST_STEP, meetup_id: #meetup.id)
end
end
This is my create function inside my MeetupsController, as you can see the controller name is plural and the file name is 'meetups_controller.rb'
Below is my routes.rb
Rails.application.routes.draw do
devise_for :users
resources :users
resources :meetups, except: [:show] do
resources :create, controller: 'meetups/setup'
resources :participations, only: [:new]
member do
get "create/review", to: 'meetups/setup#review'
end
end
root to: 'pages#home'
get 'join_meetup', to: 'pages#join_meetup'
get 'events', to: 'pages#events'
get 'landing', to: 'pages#landing'
end
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Error trace would be more helpful.
But looking at resources :create, controller: 'meetups/setup' in routes file, I could guess that the Rails application is Expecting namespaced controller as Meetups::SetupController.
So you need to change your controller accordingly. You need to create a namespaced controller or may be a scoped controller.

Add custom new routes to rails resources

I my routes file, I have defined a resource
namespace :admin do
resources :invoices, only: [:index, :new]
end
Then I've got a route rule with corresponding path helper new_admin_invoice_path
new_admin_invoice GET /admin/invoices/new(.:format) admin/invoices#new
But how can I add two more new rules, so thуe look like
new_admin_incoming_invoice GET /admin/invoices/new/incoming(.:format) admin/invoices#new {:type=>:incoming}
new_admin_outgoing_invoice GET /admin/invoices/new/outgoing(.:format) admin/invoices#new {:type=>:outgoing}
I tried add them manually
resources :invoices, only: [:index, :new] do
get 'new/incoming', on: :collection, action: :new, type: :incoming
get 'new/outgoing', on: :collection, action: :new, type: :outgoing
end
But got wrong result
new_incoming_admin_invoices GET /admin/invoices/new/incoming(.:format) admin/invoices#new {:type=>:incoming}
new_outgoing_admin_invoices GET /admin/invoices/new/outgoing(.:format) admin/invoices#new {:type=>:outgoing}
How can I get exactly that routes with path helpers what I need?
Here is the easy rails way from official guide
resources :invoices, only: [:index] do
get 'incoming', on: :new, type: :incoming, action: :new
end
Results to
incoming_new_admin_invoice GET /admin/invoices/new/incoming(.:format) admin/invoices#new {:type=>:incoming}
Try by using a scope like this:
scope "/admin" do resources :invoices end

Rails routes: GET method redirecting to show method

I have simple controller and routes file.
In my route and controller i have created a module. I wrote a simple method which is redirecting me show. I am not sure why.
Controller
module Seller
class CampaignsController < Seller::BaseController
before_action :confirm_logged_in
def viewAllCampaigns
#campaigns = Campaign.all
end
def show
end
end
end
Routes file
scope module: 'seller' do
#namespace :power do
resources :dashboard, only: [:index]
resources :sessions, only: [:create, :destroy]
resources :campaigns, only: [:index, :create, :show, :update, :destroy]
get 'viewAllCampaigns' => 'campaigns#viewAllCampaigns'
end
Output
Started GET "/campaigns/viewAllCampaigns" for 127.0.0.1 at 2015-10-12 17:39:43 +0500
Processing by Seller::CampaignsController#show as HTML
Parameters: {"id"=>"viewAllCampaigns"}
Rendered seller/campaigns/show.html.erb (0.1ms)
I am hitting http://localhost:3000/campaigns/viewAllCampaigns in browser.
Ideally your routes should be defined like this.
resources :campaigns, only: [:index, :create, :show, :update, :destroy] do
get 'viewAllCampaigns', on: :collection
end
The first comment on the routes.rb file is The priority is based upon order of creation: first created -> highest priority. This is the reason your route is redirecting to show. Rails is treating this url as campain/:id.
Routes are tested in order, from top to bottom. The show route you've added for the campaigns resource will look for urls matching this pattern:
/campaigns/:id
/campaigns/viewAllCampaigns matches this, so it will do the show action., with params[:id] = "viewAllCampaigns"
Move the special case route up above the resources#campaigns route to fix this, then it will catch the url first.
get 'viewAllCampaigns' => 'campaigns#viewAllCampaigns'
resources :campaigns, only: [:index, :create, :show, :update, :destroy]
It takes the following get request as a show action because show expects campaigns/:id, and it assumes 'viewAllCampaigns' is an id in this instance:
/campaigns/viewAllCampaigns
Your link_to should just be pointing to the following:
'/viewAllCampaigns'
Your route structure isn't really RESTful, but that's a separate topic.

How to create routes path into resource in rails 3

I understand resource and path routes in rails 3 but I do not know is there any way to have both routes ? I try this routes but it not work for me, this is the routes:
resources :roles, only: [:index, :create, :show, :update]
get '/roles/:id' => 'roles#available_users'
How can we routes to use both routes ?
thankyou very much
Routes
What you're asking for cannot be done, as you'll be using the same "route" for different controller actions:
#config/routes.rb
resources :roles, only: [:index, :create, :show, :update] #-> domain.com/roles/:id - roles#show
If you then create another route for domain.com/roles/:id, Rails will just take the first which it finds in the routes file
--
The way to fix your issue is likely to be down to the following:
#config/routes.rb
resources :roles, except: [:edit, :destroy] do
get :available_users # -> domain.com/roles/:id/available_users
end
This will take you to the roles#available_users action, providing you with the ability to load the view you wish (to display the users for a particular role)
For a more defined explanation, I'd recommend checking out the nested_resources part of the Rails routing system
If I understand you correctly you want something like this:
resources :roles, only: [:index, :create, :update] do
get '/roles/:id' => 'roles#available_users'
end
Correct?
Just add an "do" behind the closing ] and an end after the custom routes.
Edit: Apparently I got wrong. ;) What you could do is:
resources :roles, only: [:index, :create, :show, :update] do
get '/roles/:id/available' => 'roles#available_users'
end

Routing Error : uninitialized constant when split controller routes into namespaced route

I have routes like this below. Is it possible if I have routes like this ?
#config/routes
resources :subscribers, only: [:index, :show]
namespace :admin do
resources :subscribers, only: [:new, :edit, :update, :create, :destroy]
end
I have tried to run rake routes and the result is
admin_subscribers POST /admin/subscribers(.:format) admin/subscribers#create
new_admin_subscriber GET /admin/subscribers/new(.:format) admin/subscribers#new
edit_admin_subscriber GET /admin/subscribers/:id/edit(.:format) admin/subscribers#edit
admin_subscriber PUT /admin/subscribers/:id(.:format) admin/subscribers#update
DELETE /admin/subscribers/:id(.:format) admin/subscribers#destroy
subscribers GET /subscribers(.:format) subscribers#index
subscriber GET /subscribers/:id(.:format) subscribers#show
the result was appropriate with my expectation, but when i run my RSpec i got errors
Routing Error
uninitialized constant Admin::SubscribersController
Try running rake routes for more information on available routes.
I added this code below in my Rspec Helper too
#spec/spec_helper.rb
Spork.each_run do
###
if /spork/i =~ $0 || RSpec.configuration.drb?
ActiveSupport::Dependencies.clear
end
###
end
But, if I fire my browser to htt**://l*alhost:3000/admin/subscribers/new, everything is fine.
Am I missing something ?
As stated in the docs
If you want to route /admin/subscribers to SubscribersController (without the Admin:: module prefix), you could use scope instead of namespace
#config/routes
resources :subscribers, only: [:index, :show]
scope "/admin" do
resources :subscribers, only: [:new, :edit, :update, :create, :destroy]
end
I don't think there's much need for you to namespace this under admin. You could just fill in all the actions on SubscribersController and set the permissions on create, update etc. appropriately.
