Rails is able to dynamically build methods from magic names like edit_record_path.
This is very powerful, but how to find docs about it?

If you just want to see what routes you have defined.
$ rake routes

No, I want to know, which parameters and options are acceptet.

Did you read that guide I linked? It should tell you all you need to know about using the routing helpers.

The link that Robert posted explains your question exactly. A *tiny* part of that page:
3.3 URLs and Paths Creating a RESTful route will also make available a pile of helpers within your application:
photos_url and photos_path map to the path for the index and create actions new_photo_url and new_photo_path map to the path for the new action edit_photo_url and edit_photo_path map to the path for the edit action photo_url and photo_path map to the path for the show, update, and destroy actions

Ok, it's a part of the routing system. I expected to find some magic meta programming method to be found in the docs.
Routing is an issue, I spent a lot of time with, without getting a real overview until now.
Thanks for your help.
