How Rails Controllers Should be Created? Should it be a verb, noun or an adjective?
I need some advice, what is the rule of the thumb when creating Rails controllers names?
Should controller be all be verbs or a combination of nouns and verbs (or adjectives)?
This is the example provided on creating controllers in Rails,
./script/generate controller CreditCard open debit credit close # which is a combination of nouns and verbs (unless credit and debit is made into a verb)
However, if I create a scaffold, the default controller actions would be index, show, new, edit, update, destroy, which has 1 noun a开发者_JAVA百科nd all verb.
Should nouns and verbs be separated completely for sake of consistency also providing a clearer project goals? Or should I mix them together?
Controller names should be plural nouns; controller actions should be verbs.
For example, to generate CreditCardsController
with the actions open
and close
, you would use ./script/generate controller CreditCards open close
.
- The first argument,
controller
, tells what to generate. - The second argument,
CreditCards
, names the controller; plural nouns only. - The remaining arguments,
open close
, name the controller actions; verbs only.
If you use script/generate
without naming any actions, the generator assumes the seven RESTful defaults, as you mentioned: index show new create edit update destroy
. All of these are, or can be, verbs.
