Routing with resources and scope does not work with mapped POST

Question

What I have tried:

Router::scope('/v1', function ($routes) {
    // ...
    $routes->resources('Auth', [
        'map' => [
            'login' => [
                'action' => 'login',
                'method' => 'POST',
                'path' => 'login'
            ]
        ],
        'only' => ['login']
    ]);
});

I have an Auth controller, due to the design, I cannot use UsersController to perform a login.

What I expect:

POST to /v1/auth/login should return a True or a False (mechanism already added in the action.

What I get:

Missing Route

Error I see:

** Also **

$ bin/cake routes | grep auth
 | auth:login            | /v1/auth/login | {"controller":"Auth","action":"login","_method":"POST","plugin":null}  |

Whenever receiving errors, please always post the complete error message, and include the related entry from the error/debug log, including the stacktrace! Also please always mention your _exact_ CakePHP version (last line in `vendor/cakephp/cakephp/VERSION.txt`) - thanks! — ndm, Feb 19 '18 at 11:58
Please do not use `tail`, it has no clue where a log entry starts or ends, or whether those lines actually belong to the error in question (the snippet doesn't even include the message). That snippet most likely belongs to an unrelated _error_, as _exceptions_ (missing route errors are exceptions) usually aren't logged to `debug.log`, but to `error.log`. — ndm, Feb 20 '18 at 07:42
Yep. Edited. I am wondering why does it show parameters like id, etc in the error? (Check image) — Keval Domadia, Feb 20 '18 at 10:41
That's the default routing options applied by `RoutesBuilder::resources()`. I can't see anything wrong with the route, it works fine for me as is, and the error also doesn't give any further hints. I can only imagine that you're either not doing a `POST` request (make sure that there's no redirect), or that you're encountering a bug. — ndm, Feb 20 '18 at 11:00
I have been playing around with Postman and curl and various headers. Turns out, the routes does not want to play the game with me... also, I have tried removing the POST bit from the routes... everything else works except /v1/auth/login — Keval Domadia, Feb 20 '18 at 13:52

Routing with resources and scope does not work with mapped POST
