Using route helper returns undefined method

rubyonrails-talk

Hey all,

I have this in routes:

  resources :cocore do     collection do       get :cocoreim     end   end

I have this in ccore controller:

class CoController < ApplicationController   def index   end

  def cocoreim     render 'cocoreim'   end end

In indx.html.erb of cocore view directory, I have this:

<% link_to 'CoCore', cocoreim_cocore_path %>

I get undefined local variable or method cocoreim_cocore_path when trying to access the cocore controller page, even though cocore/cocoreim page renders fine.

Why? I thought using collection block produces a helper which is a concatenation of the collection get method and the parent resource method. So what am I missing here?

Thanks for response.

Check rake routes. Is the route there?

Is your controller class spelled correctly? You have

class CoController < ApplicationController

but are trying to reference a controller called cocore which would be class CocoreController. That may be why you are seeing the error.

Yeah, I had to use: cocoreim_cocore_index_path
