Nested Resources not working for me...

[Perry Smith]

This code works:

map.resources :feedbacks
map.resources :feedback_notes, :path_prefix =>
'/feedbacks/:feedback_id'

(this is in my config.rb file).

But this code does not:

map.resources :feedbacks do |feedback|
feedback.resources :feedback_notes
end

The error is:

undefined method `new_feedback_note_path' for
#<ActionView::Base:0x21bd380c>

The code in the view is:

<%= link_to 'New Note', new_feedback_note_path(@feedback) %>

I've been mucking around with this for half a day and can't figure out
what is wrong. I'm using edge rails last refreshed sometime this week.

Can anyone spot the errors of my ways?

Thanks,
pedz

This should be new_feedback_feedback_note_path(@feedback)

Thanks. That got me past that obstacle.

Now, if I can press my luck, how should the form_for be done?

The scaffold generates:

<% form_for(@feedback_note) do |f| %>

But, that produces:

undefined method `feedback_notes_path' for
#<ActionView::Base:0x21b8efcc>

script/generate scaffold doesn't produce forms that are useable for
nested resources (though maybe there's a flag that I'm unaware of). I
use the more traditional

form_for(:feedback_note,
:url => { :action => 'create', :feedback_id =>
@feedback.id }) do |f|

have you tried <% form_for(@feedback, @feedback_note) do |f| %>

else this should work.
<% form_for @feedback_note, :url => feedback_feedback_note_path do |f|
%>

[Gerjan Stokkink]

I think it should be:

<% form_for([@feedback, @feedback_note]) do |f| %>
