rails route to specific id
I have a pages controller with two records in the db; 'pages' and 'contact'. The id for each page record is the title. How do I write a specific route for each page?
开发者_如何转开发I currently have a catch-all route which works...
match '/:id' => 'pages#show'
but I want to create a single route for each page
I probably don't understand your question because I have no idea why you would want to do that ;)
Anyhow, say you have a page what the title/id "about". This is what your route could look like:
match '/about' => 'pages#show', :defaults => { :id => 'about' }
cf. http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html#defining-defaults
Note: I wouldn't call the route you're using already a "catchall"; it's a pretty normal Rails route. This is what I would call a catchall:
match ':controller(/:action(/:id))'
