Hi all,
I tried to post this yesterday, but it seems to have been lost in the void, so reposting.
I’m having a problem with redirect_to preserving the HTTP verb, in this case PUT, when redirecting.
I send an AJAX PUT request to to an action in TasksController, and want to redirect to the show action in the TaskListsController when processing is complete like the following:
redirect_to @tasklist, :notice => t(‘successful’)
From the docs I would assume this would sent a GET /task_lists/1, but instead is sending PUT /task_lists/1, causing the update action to be called…
Controllers:
class TasksController < ApplicationController
def move_task_down
def move_task_down
@task = Task.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
if @task.move_lower
format.html { redirect_to @task.task_list, :notice => t(‘task_lists.successfully_moved’) }
else
format.html { redirect_to @task.task_list, :alert => t(‘task_lists.error_move_task’) } end
end
end
end
class TaskListsController < ApplicationController
def show
@task_list = TaskList.find(params[:id], :include => [:tasks])
respond_to |format|
format.html
end
end
def update
usual update stuff
end
end
Models:
class Task < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :task_list
end
class TaskList < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :tasks, :order => ‘position asc’, :dependent => :destroy
end
routes.rb:
put ‘tasks/:id/move_down’=> ‘tasks#move_task_down’, :as => ‘move_task_down’
resources :task_lists
development.log:

Processing by TaskListsController#move_task_down as JS
Parameters: {“locale”=>“ja”, “id”=>“406137300”}

Started PUT “/task_lists/1007688486?locale=ja” for 127.0.0.1 at 2012-03-21 09:40:17 +0900
Processing by TaskListsController#update as JS
Parameters: {“locale”=>“ja”, “id”=>“1007688486”}
Why is the redirect_to using PUT and not GET?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Martin
