[Solved] ElegantRails – Multiple Routes to one Controller Action

by


Absolutely there is. You can use a parameter directly in your route. Even further, you can then use that parameter directly in your query, rather than using a case statement.

#routes.rb

get 'suggestions/:type', to: 'suggestions#index'

# suggestions_controller.rb

def index
   @suggestions = Suggestion.where(suggestion_type: params[:type])
end

It’s always a better practice to base your controller actions after parameters, rather than doing any interpretation of the path or request objects.

Hope it works!
