Rails add a path from one controller to another controller - ruby-on-rails

On a checkout controller if the user did not fill in their address he should be redirected to the address path, but after the redirect rails is outputting:
undefined method `new_user_address_path' for #
The checkout code:
def checkout
#order = current_user.cart.orders.find(params[:id])
if current_user.address.blank?
redirect_to new_user_address_path(current_user)
flash[:error] = 'Antes de prosseguir por favor, preencha o seu endereço'
end
end
I added a helper method but it did not worked. Why is the controller warning the path as a method?
Routes
user address
user_address POST /users/:user_id/address(.:format) address#create
new_user_addres GET /users/:user_id/address/new(.:format) address#new
checkout
orders GET /orders(.:format) orders#index
order PUT /orders/:id(.:format) orders#update
DELETE /orders/:id(.:format) orders#destroy

The problem is here
resources :users, only: [:new, :create, :edit, :update, :show] do
resources :address, only: [:new, :create]
end
By default the resources method with an s considers the first argument to be a plural so it will try to remove the extra s for generating member urls, hence the new_user_addres path.
In order to fix this I suggest renaming
resources :users, only: [:new, :create, :edit, :update, :show] do
resources :address, only: [:new, :create]
end
to
resources :users, only: [:new, :create, :edit, :update, :show] do
resources :addresses, only: [:new, :create]
end
And adding the irregular plural to your inflections
# config/initializers/inflections.rb
ActiveSupport::Inflector.inflections(:en) do |inflect|
inflect.irregular 'address', 'addresses'
end
Note that you will have to restart your server

Renaming rails route parameter to id

In my routes.rb file, I have the following resources
resources :classrooms, only: [:index, :new, :create] do
resources :students, only: [:index, :edit, :update], controller: 'students' do
get :honor
end
end
My honor route becomes /classrooms/:classroom_id/students/:students_id/honor(.:format)
but I want to replace student_id to id so that I can easily use it in the students controllers.
Ideal route is /classrooms/:classroom_id/students/:id/honor(.:format)
You can do that specifying it's a member route. this way
get :honor, on: :member
or
member do
get :honor
end

Subdomains in routes.rb

as I am trying to create web with subodmain for every user i coded as below:
In below controller i am checking if subdomain from sign_in devise page belons to user in User.rb table. If not i am logging out.
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
before_action :authenticate_user!
before_action :check_domain
protected
def configure_permitted_parameters
devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:sign_up, keys: [:slug])
devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:account_update, keys: [:slug])
end
def check_domain
unless current_user.nil?
#domain = User.find_by(email: current_user.email)
if #domain.slug != request.subdomain
sign_out_and_redirect(current_user)
flash.alert = "User not found."
end
end
end
end
At this moment I have routes.rb as below:
Rails.application.routes.draw do
resources :devise
resources :places
resources :people_items
resources :people, only: [:edit, :update]
resources :gift_items
resources :gifts, only: [:edit, :update]
resources :program_items
resources :story_items
devise_for :users
root to: 'pages#index'
get '/home', to: 'output#home'
# For details on the DSL available within this file, see https://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html
resources :pages do
member do
delete :delete_file
end
end
resources :stories, only: [:edit, :update]
resources :programs, only: [:edit, :update]
resources :galleries, only: [:edit, :update] do
member do
delete :delete_image
end
end
get 'informations/information'
resources :aboutus, only: [:edit, :update]
end
I modified one more settings in config/environments/development.rb
config.action_dispatch.tld_length = 1
Everything is working fine.
In tutorials i found out that for working subdomains properly I should modify routes.rb as below. But what is the purpose of modification file below? Do I really need to touch routes.rb? That's my question.
constraints subdomain: /.*/ do
resources :pages
end
Do I really need to modify this? Or what is purpose of this modification? Is that really necessary?
Thank you so much for your advices!
Constraints in routes.rb allow you to restrict when routes should or shouldn't be matched, returning a 404 in the event that they do not.
You can do this on a per-route basis for params like so:
get 'products/:category', to: "products#index", category: /(fruit|electronics|medicine)/, as: :products
This would allow requests to http://yourdomain.com/products/fruit but not to http://yourdomain.com/products/vehicles for example. Accessing any forbidden domains would provide you with a 404 response.
You can provide generic constraints to a bunch of different routes by enclosing them in a constraints block, like so:
constraints ->(req) { Site.exists?(subdomain: req.subdomain) } do
resources :articles, path: "blog", only: [:index, :show]
...
end
So here, we're checking that a Site record exists with the subdomain provided. If not, we return a 404.

Rails error Couldn't find Blog with 'id'=new

I have a weird error when I want to redirect users to the root_url when they try to access blogs/new url in my app.
My routes are
resources :blogs, only: [:index, :show] do
resources :comments, only: [:create]
end
namespace :admin do
resources :blogs
resources :users, only: [:index, :show]
resources :comments, only: [:create, :new, :destroy]
end
My non-admin blogs controller looks like this:
class BlogsController < ApplicationController
before_action :set_blog, only: [:show]
def show
unless #blog
redirect_to blogs_path
flash[:notice] = "You are not authorized to create a post."
end
end
def index
#blogs = Blog.all
end
private
def set_blog
#blog = Blog.find(params[:id])
end
end
I get the error Couldn't find Blog with 'id'=new.
In rails, the priority of routes goes from top to bottom. Meaning, when you try to hit /blogs/new, the route gets matched with the show action of blogs defined in the top of your routes.rb.
blogs/new gets matched with /blogs/:id which is mapped to blogs#show action.
In the set_blog method, params[:id] is new and since there is no record with the id of new, you're getting that weird error.
How to get around this? Change the priority of your routes.
Move the following block below the admin namespaced routes.
namespace :admin do
resources :blogs
resources :users, only: [:index, :show]
resources :comments, only: [:create, :new, :destroy]
end
resources :blogs, only: [:index, :show] do
resources :comments, only: [:create]
end
By the way, your question says that you want to avoid non-admin users to access blogs#new. If that's the case, you should try to hit /admin/blogs/new and not /blogs/new.
If you had done that, you wouldn't have gotten the error in the first place. But still, its good to know about the priority of routes in rails.
Hope this helps!

No route matches when trying to sign up

I'm having troubles with routes in Ruby on Rails. I've configured routes this way
resources :users do
collection do
resource :registrations, only: [:show, :create]
resource :sessions, only: [:new, :create, :destroy]
resource :confirmations, only: [:show]
end
end
And I have a RegistrationsController where I have two endpoints (new, create)
class RegistrationsController < ApplicationController
skip_before_filter :authenticate!
def new
#user = User.new
end
def create
#user = User.new(params[:user])
if #user.save
flash[:notice] = t("registrations.user.success")
redirect_to :root
end
end
end
But when I do rails s and I put localhost:3000/users/registrations/create or new I get a "no route matches". And I think the route exist because If I do raake routes I get this
registrations POST /users/registrations(.:format) registrations#create
GET /users/registrations(.:format) registrations#show
I know it should be a silly mistake but I don't get it. I appreciate any help
When you define routes for registrations, you're limiting it to just [:show, :create]:
resource :registrations, only: [:show, :create]
But your controller (correctly!) is presuming that there are two routes: new (to show the registration form) and create (to create the new user). You need to change your routes so that they match your controller actions:
resources :users do
collection do
resource :registrations, only: [:new, :create] # Updated this line!
resource :sessions, only: [:new, :create, :destroy]
resource :confirmations, only: [:show]
end
end

Getting ActionController::RoutingError uninitialized constant while trying to use namespace in Rails routes

I have two controllers dashboard and posts. Im trying to put the post's :new, :create, :destroy, :edit, :update actions within dashboard url like this dashboard/posts/new. But the im talking to the new action in the posts controller. Not in the dash controller. Here's my routes.rb file :
resources :posts, :except => [:new, :create, :destroy, :edit, :update]
get 'dashboard', to: 'dash#show'
namespace :dashboard do
resources :posts, :only => [:new, :create, :destroy, :edit, :update]
end
get 'dashboard/posts', to: 'dash#posts'
The two controllers in question are : dash and posts
Now when I try to visit http://localhost:3000/dashboard/posts/new it says :
ActionController::RoutingError at /dashboard/posts/new
uninitialized constant Dashboard
How to fix this?
Assuming that you have two controllers DashController and PostsController.
And you want to access few of the posts routes within the scope of namespace then you can define the routes as below:
resources :posts, :only => [:index, :show]
get 'dashboard', to: 'dash#show'
scope :dashboard do
resources :posts, controller: :posts ,:only => [:new, :create, :destroy, :edit, :update]
end
get 'dashboard/posts', to: 'dash#posts'
The constant "Dashboard" can't be found. I think the problem is that you sometimes use dash and sometimes use dashboard.
