Best Practice for nested resources

rubyonrails-talk

Hi all,

I'm writing an app that has a reporting component. All of the reports are in a controller called reports_controller. I'm using REST routes, and I'd like to do something like:

/properties/1/myreport

and have it call the myreport action of the reports controller. Is there a way to do this? Is this where I would use something like:

map.resources :properties do |property|   ~~ something here to reference myreport ??? ~~ end

Thanks!
