Hello all -
I have looked through the newsgroups and been unable to find my specific issue, or a resolution, and I am stuck, so I am posting to ask for help, or a link to something I may have missed.
I have an application that allows users to log in, create a project and associate locations with their projects.
I am using nested resources to map users to projects to resources as follows:
DEMO03::Application.routes.draw do root :to => "sessions#new"
resources :sessions
resources :users do resources :projects do resources :locations end end
get "logout" => "sessions#destroy", :as => "logout" get "login" => "sessions#new", :as => "login" get "signup" => "users#new", :as => "signup" get "secret" => "secret#index" end
If I run rake routes, I get routes that allow me to get to user_project_locations and user_projects (among others). However, when I attempt to redirect_to user_project_locations from my sessions controller after creating a new session as follows:
def create user = User.find_by_email(params[:email]) if user && user.authenticate(params[:password]) session[:user_id] = user.id redirect_to user_projects, :notice => "#{current_user.email} logged in." else flash.now.alert = "Invalid email or password" render "new" end end
I received an error indicating there was no index method in my sessions controller. I tried adding the following:
def index redirect_to user_projects, :notice => "#{current_user.email} logged in - from Controller index." end
and got the following:
undefined local variable or method `user_projects' for #<SessionsController:0x00000103d61380>
It looks like for some reason I cannot use named routes that rake output suggests should be available.
I also tried nesting user, project and location inside sessions (which intuitively seemed wrong, but tried it anyway) - which also didn't work.
Not sure how to diagnose further. Any assistance would be appreciated.
