Rails 4 nested resources but doesn't expose RESTful to parent paths?
I just started learning Ruby on Rails and was working on a simple site that has the following setup:
resources :categories do
resources :products
end
resources :products do
resources :features
end
however i dont want to show url products_controller
/products(.:format) products#index
/products(.:format) products#create
/products/new(.:format) products#new
/products/:id/edit(.:format) products#edit
/products/:id(.:format) products#show
/products/:id(.:format) products#update
/products/:id(.:format) products#update
/products/:id(.:format) products#destroy
I only need routes that look like this
/products/:product_id/features(.:format) features#index
/products/:product_id/features(.:format) features#create
/products/:product_id/features/new(.:format) features#new
/features/:id/edit(.:format) features#edit
/features/:id(.:format) features#show
/features/:id(.:format) features#update
/features/:id(.:format) features#update
/features/:id(.:format) features#destroy
I know the above routing can be done by labeling shallow: true
, but it will still show a quiet path to products_controller, is it all around that anyway?

You can restrict it to the actions you want using only or excluding. Using only with an empty array should remove the route.
resources :categories do
resources :products
end
resources :products, only: [] do
resources :features
end
So now if I rake routes
category_products GET /categories/:category_id/products(.:format) products#index
POST /categories/:category_id/products(.:format) products#create
new_category_product GET /categories/:category_id/products/new(.:format) products#new
edit_category_product GET /categories/:category_id/products/:id/edit(.:format) products#edit
category_product GET /categories/:category_id/products/:id(.:format) products#show
PATCH /categories/:category_id/products/:id(.:format) products#update
PUT /categories/:category_id/products/:id(.:format) products#update
DELETE /categories/:category_id/products/:id(.:format) products#destroy
categories GET /categories(.:format) categories#index
POST /categories(.:format) categories#create
new_category GET /categories/new(.:format) categories#new
edit_category GET /categories/:id/edit(.:format) categories#edit
category GET /categories/:id(.:format) categories#show
PATCH /categories/:id(.:format) categories#update
PUT /categories/:id(.:format) categories#update
DELETE /categories/:id(.:format) categories#destroy
product_features GET /products/:product_id/features(.:format) features#index
POST /products/:product_id/features(.:format) features#create
new_product_feature GET /products/:product_id/features/new(.:format) features#new
edit_product_feature GET /products/:product_id/features/:id/edit(.:format) features#edit
product_feature GET /products/:product_id/features/:id(.:format) features#show
PATCH /products/:product_id/features/:id(.:format) features#update
PUT /products/:product_id/features/:id(.:format) features#update
DELETE /products/:product_id/features/:id(.:format) features#destroy
