Setting up a basic api in rails

Question

I'm trying to create a basic rails app. I created an apis controller like so

class ApisController < ApplicationController
    def calendar
       #code
       render json: @response
    end
end

and my routing file looks like this

namespace :api, defaults: {format: 'json'} do
    get 'calendar' => 'apis#calendar'
end

Unfortunately i get the error uninitialized constant Api . I would ideally like to keep the api as simple as possible. Where am I going wrong

Any help is appreciated and Merry Christmas!

Answer 1

I recommend wrapping it in a module. You can manage versioning the same way.

Here's an example:

Answer 2

Figured using scopes instead of namespaces

scope :api, defaults: {format: 'json'} do
    get 'calendar' => 'apis#calendar'
end
