I am learning ruby and rails 4 +

Even though your route maps to the new action of the users controller, your form needs to point to the URI pattern, in your case /signup.
When in doubt, you can find the URI pattern and other information in your routes. Run rake routes in your console and you'll see this:
signup GET|POST /signup(.:format) users#new
Rails generates helper methods to use in your views for each of the routes, based on the route prefix. In your case you can use the helper method signup_path. To fix the problem, change your view code to this:
<%= form_for #user, url: signup_path do |f| %>
Check the Rails documentation for more information.

Username in urls - Ruby on Rails

I am working on a project which includes signup, login and users can post articles. However I want to include username of the user in article url. So I did like this in routes.rb
scope '/:username' do
resources :articles, :path => '/status', only: [:create, :destroy, :show]
end
Now when I open project index which shows all articles, I am getting this error.
No route matches {:action=>"create", :controller=>"articles"} missing required keys: [:username]
Am I doing something wrong?
Edit:
Here is the output of rake routes
Prefix Verb URI Pattern Controller#Action
users GET /users(.:format) users#index
POST /users(.:format) users#create
new_user GET /users/new(.:format) users#new
edit_user GET /users/:id/edit(.:format) users#edit
user GET /users/:id(.:format) users#show
PATCH /users/:id(.:format) users#update
PUT /users/:id(.:format) users#update
DELETE /users/:id(.:format) users#destroy
root GET / static_pages#home
help GET /help(.:format) static_pages#help
signup GET /signup(.:format) users#new
login GET /login(.:format) sessions#new
POST /login(.:format) sessions#create
logout DELETE /logout(.:format) sessions#destroy

GET /new(.:format) users#new
GET /:id/edit(.:format) users#edit
GET /:id(.:format) users#show
PATCH /:id(.:format) users#update
PUT /:id(.:format) users#update
DELETE /:id(.:format) users#destroy
archings POST /:username/status(.:format) articles#create
arching GET /:username/status/:id(.:format) articles#show
DELETE /:username/status/:id(.:format) articles#destroy
Here is the code of routes.rb
Rails.application.routes.draw do
root 'static_pages#home'
get 'help' => 'static_pages#help'
get 'signup' => 'users#new'
get 'login' => 'sessions#new'
post 'login' => 'sessions#create'
delete 'logout' => 'sessions#destroy'
resources :users, shallow: true do
resources :articles
end
end
Although having really short URLs may be attractive you should not use a wildcard at the "lowest level" of your url schema - unless your application only really deals with a single type of resource. Adding a wildcard at the bottom level in your urls causes huge headaches since it will swallow every other route unless great care is taken.
I would really recommend that you use /users/:username/articles.
resources :users, shallow: true do
resources :articles
end
This is a better restful design and it means that you do not have to blacklist usernames against a list of the other urls (and future urls) needed in your application.

Michael Hartl Tutorial, no routes match

I get this error:
Failures:
1) UsersController DELETE 'destroy' should sign a user out
Failure/Error: delete :destroy
ActionController::UrlGenerationError:
No route matches {:controller=>"users", :action=>"destroy"}
My test is:
it "should sign a user out" do
test_sign_in(Factory(:user))
delete :destroy
expect(controller).to_not be_signed_in
expect(response).to redirect_to(root_path)
end
The test_sign_in function is in the spec helper:
def test_sign_in(user)
controller.sign_in(user)
end
My rake routes:

signup GET /signup(.:format) users#new
signin GET /signin(.:format) sessions#new
signout GET /signout(.:format) sessions#destroy
pages_home GET /pages/home(.:format) pages#home
Anyone knows how can I solve this error?
Your route is defined as
DELETE /users/:id(.:format) users#destroy
which means that the route is expecting something like
DELETE /users/4
Looking at your test, you are just requesting DELETE /users, this was derived from this error message:
ActionController::UrlGenerationError: No route matches {:controller=>"users", :action=>"destroy"})
So, you need to modify your test to handle the :id part of the route. This is un-tested, but you're roughly looking for:
user = Factory(:user)
test_sign_in(user)
delete :destroy, id: user.id
ooooh god!! I found the error. I accidentally was writing the code in the users_controller_spec and I should do this in the sessions_controller_spec.
Thanks Andreas for trying to help!

No route matches [POST] "/searching"
And I want that when I click on the search button, It goes into the search page, and show result of search. below is search page controller:

#user_zip = User.where(user_Zip: params[:tf_zip])

NoMethodError new to Rails

Ive been following some rails guides and im trying to now implement something on my own for a project im doing and have hit a snag at the first hurdle
I get this error when trying to load the page
ActionController::UrlGenerationError in StepOne#login
Showing /Users/rogan/Sites/authImp/app/views/step_one/login.html.erb where line #3 raised:
No route matches {:action=>"show", :controller=>"step_one"} missing required keys: [:id]
Extracted source (around line #3):
<%= form_for url: step_one_path do %>
form stuff...
then my step_one_controller.rb
class StepOneController < ApplicationController
def new
end
def create
user = User.authenticate(params[:email], params[:password])
if user
pincode = generatePin
puts "one use pin.#{pincode}"
redirect_to "step_two"
else
flash.now.alert = "Invalid email or password"
render "new"
end
end
end
this was adapter from a login system i saw in a guide that used SessionsController.rb and form_for url: sessions_path
but my simple changes seem to have broke it, i've looked at my routes as well and they all seem to be in order
edit: heres is my routes
edit edit: changed everything to step_one and to removed the 's' as suggested, I now get
NoMethodError in StepOne#login
undefined method `model_name' for Hash:Class
<%= form_for url: step_one_path do %>
so from one problem to another!
AuthImp::Application.routes.draw do
resources :users
resources :sessions
resource :step_one
get "users/:id" => "users#show"
get "sign_up" => "users#new"
get "log_in" => "step_one#login"
get "step_two" => "sessions#new"
get "log_out" => "sessions#destroy", :as => "log_out"
then my rake routes is as follows
root to: "welcome#index"
users GET /users(.:format) users#index
POST /users(.:format) users#create
new_user GET /users/new(.:format) users#new
edit_user GET /users/:id/edit(.:format) users#edit
user GET /users/:id(.:format) users#show
PATCH /users/:id(.:format) users#update
PUT /users/:id(.:format) users#update
DELETE /users/:id(.:format) users#destroy
sessions GET /sessions(.:format) sessions#index
POST /sessions(.:format) sessions#create
new_session GET /sessions/new(.:format) sessions#new
edit_session GET /sessions/:id/edit(.:format) sessions#edit
session GET /sessions/:id(.:format) sessions#show
PATCH /sessions/:id(.:format) sessions#update
PUT /sessions/:id(.:format) sessions#update
DELETE /sessions/:id(.:format) sessions#destroy
step_one POST /step_one(.:format) step_ones#create
new_step_one GET /step_one/new(.:format) step_ones#new
edit_step_one GET /step_one/edit(.:format) step_ones#edit
GET /step_one(.:format) step_ones#show
PATCH /step_one(.:format) step_ones#update
PUT /step_one(.:format) step_ones#update
DELETE /step_one(.:format) step_ones#destroy
GET /users/:id(.:format) users#show
sign_up GET /sign_up(.:format) users#new
log_in GET /log_in(.:format) step_one#login
step_two GET /step_two(.:format) sessions#new
log_out GET /log_out(.:format) sessions#destroy
root GET / welcome#index
your problem is in the naming I think, resources :step_one assumes that you define the StepOnesController (plural), not StepOneController
So, you should either rename your controller or use resource :step_one route (without the s at the end)
It looks like Rails is expecting you to pass in an id to your step_one_path, so the form_for should look like this:
<%= form_for url: step_one_path(#user.id) do %>
Where #user.id would be the id of the user that the form is associated with. Hope that helps. If not, please include your routes.rb file.
<%= form_tag step_one_path do |f| %>
was the form tag necessary, i was going about it wrong
thanks for all the help

Restricting Rails routes to actions

Lets say I have an UsersController that contains an action #new. In my routes file I map with the following:
match 'signup', to: 'users#new'
This action can now be accessed by both /signup and /users/new. How do I restrict it to only the custom route.
I apologize if this has been answered, but am new to this. I've searched, but haven't found the answer. Possibly due to my not knowing how to concisely phrase this.
You can exempt the new route from the users resource, and replace it with your custom route:
resources :users, except: [:new]
get 'signup', to: 'users#new', as: "new_user"
Resulting in:
users GET /users(.:format) users#index
POST /users(.:format) users#create
edit_user GET /users/:id/edit(.:format) users#edit
user GET /users/:id(.:format) users#show
PUT /users/:id(.:format) users#update
DELETE /users/:id(.:format) users#destroy
new_user GET /signup(.:format) users#new
