Controller redirection on Ruby on Rails

Question

I have a simple question I can't solve :

In my RoR controller, I have the classical

format.html {redirect_to @document, notice= 'Document was successfully created.'}

But I want to redirect this into a particular page: for example something like

redirect_to /page/document/:id_document

Do you have the exact syntax to do that ? Thank you !

Answer 1

Run rake routes in your terminal which will show you path or url helper methods according to your routes something like

your_helper GET    /page/document/:id_document     {:action=>"action_name", :controller=>"controller_name"}

then do

format.html {redirect_to your_helper_path(@document), notice= 'Document was successfully created.'}

OR

You can also use rails polymorphic url like @jvnill suggested

format.html {redirect_to [:page, @document], notice= 'Document was successfully created.'}
