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
