Overview

ResourceController::Helpers

Included in Base.

These helpers are used internally to manage objects, generate urls, and manage parent resource associations.

If you want to customize certain controller behaviour, like member-object, and collection fetching, overriding these methods is all it takes.

See the docs below, and the README for examples

Please Note: many of these helpers build on top of each other, and require that behaviour to be maintained, in order for other functionality to work properly.

e.g. All fetching must be done on top of the method end_of_association_chain, or else parent resources (including polymorphic ones) won't function correctly.

class PostsController < ResourceController::Base
private
def object
  @object ||= end_of_association_chain.find_by_permalink(param)
end
end
