Howto Make simply_restful Useful For Real People

For those rare occasions when a numerical sequence is not enough…
- Open
vendor/plugins/simply_restful/lib/simply_restful/routes.rb - Change line 30 from
member_path = "#{path}/:id"
to
member_path = options.delete(:member_path) || "#{path}/:id"
Now you can specify your routes as follows:
map.resource :entry, :member_path => 'entries/:year/:month/:day/:permalink'
This should DEFINITELY be the default behavior of Simply RES Tful, I came across an issue just yesterday where I needed this kind of functionality.
It would be quite nice if it was inside the :member hash item i.e.
<code>map.resource :entry, :member => { :path => ‘entries/:year/:month/:day/:permalink’ }</code>
I’m using Simply RES Tful a lot now. Keep a check at thelucid.com/articles/category/simply-restful
