I have a padrino project.

I've created a sub app called "users".

I also have a model called user and a controller called users to handle the routing.

Users.controllers :users do

The issue with that is that the urls being produced and being responded to are

app.com/users/users/index etc

unless I go to each action and map it

get :index, :map => '/' do

Is there a better way of doing this?

I don't really want to put the actions in the app.rb for the app.. even though that works great. I like having the separation.

Is there anything like

Users.controllers :users do
    map '/'
end

Is there a naming convention that I can follow to create a default controller that would response to my apps root url?

I'd like to keep it in the users controller so that I can use the users_index etc

If I have to map the path for each action in the controller when my app name matches my controller name, that's fine. I was just wondering if there was a way to set the base or root path for all my actions via the controller.

Thanks

You can use directly:

get "/" do
end

#padrino-core-0.10.6.c/lib/padrino-core/application/routing.rb

#around line 655
#method parse_route

#right after unless controller.empty? i added the following which works in my case

   if controller.last.downcase == app_name.downcase and map.blank?
    controller = controller.slice(0, -2) unless controller.length == 1
    controller_path = controller.join("/")
    path.gsub!(%r{^\(/\)|/\?}, "")
    map = File.join(controller_path, path)
end

So now if I have an application called Users and a controller called Users to handle the routes, I can just say /users or /users/new etc instead of /users/users/new.

Again, I'm very new to this, so I have no idea if this is the best way to handle this. I could have just set the map manually in each route, but that would be very annoying.

I'm hoping that DAddYE can weight in on this and provide a better recommendation.
