Named routes in Alchemy modules

[Jesper Petersson]

Hi!

I've got some problems with named routes in the Alchemy CMS. I was hoping that you guys maybe know why it's happening and what I can do about it.

I created an Alchemy module named products. In the toolbar view of the module I would like to use named routes to link to products#new. The view is calling `new_admin_product_path` but I receive the following error message:
Error: undefined local variable or method `new_admin_product_path' for #<#<Class:0x007fd670192258>:0x007fd67062d808>

However, when I run `rake routes` it gives the route just as expected:
new_admin_product GET /admin/products/new(.:format) admin/products#new

My config/routes.rb: http://pastebin.com/sftSMr3A

Are there anyone else that have encountered the same problem? Any clues of how to resolve it?

Thanks in advance,

/Jesper

Yes,

this is a common Rails engines "problem". Sadly, this is poorly documented.

In order to make routes work in the Alchemy engine, you have to call all your apps routes with `main_app.name_of_the_route`

So in your example:

`main_app.new_admin_product_path`

Hope this helps.

Best 

Thomas
