Rails删除某些路由

Question

I have a rails app and I have some custom routes. I have a database called Reports. In my routes.rb i have match '/new' => 'reports#new' however the problem is that /new goes to the right place, but /reports/new is also still active. Is there a way to "deactivate" the standard /reports/new so that only /new works?

Answer 1

Sure, there is. You can use the only option as in (for example):

resources :reports, :only => [:create, :edit, :update]

which defines routes only for the specified actions (run rake routes to see all the routes) (so it doesn't remove routes, it just does not generate them)

Edit: Plus, of course, there's also the except option (also see @Andy Gaskell's anwers) - which generates all routes except for the given actions, see the docs .

Answer 2

If you're only interested in disabling one action except may be more appropriate than only . It works in a similar way.

... :except => :new
