New route method on every controller

[javinto]

Hi

In my routes I have a

match ":controller/help", :action=>'help'     (Rake routes shows:  /:controller/help(.:format)            :controller#help)

This will add a help action on every controller, including namespaced controllers.

As Rails 4 will not be supporting 'match' anymore I'm converting these routes to get, put, etc. No sweat, except for this route:

get ':controller/help'        (Rake routes shows: GET    /:controller/help(.:format)                                                                  :controller#help)

This route does not work on namespaced controllers, like:

namespace :admin do
    myController
end

I tried declaring:

namespace :admin do
    get ':controller/help'
    myController
end

But rake routes is telling me: :controller segment is not allowed within a namespace block

Is there another solution to this?

I think you need

get ':controller/help'
and

get ':namespace/:controller/help'
