For legacy reasons, I''d like to be able to have part of a url as optional, the problem is that it''s at the start of the URL, rather than the end. /laddr/match/result with ''/laddr'' being optional, depending on which URL the user uses to access the site. Is it possible to do this with routes? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Just need to figure out the accompanying apache rewrite rules to serve any actual files from te directory, instead of pointing them at mongerl.

So, while this works great on the productions server (Apache2 +
mongrel_cluster) it causes a few problems when running on the dev
machine.
Can I have a seperate set of routes for the dev box? or am I missing
something?
This is what is surrently in my routes.rb :
map.connect ''/:option'', :controller =>
"welcome", :option => /laddr/
map.connect ''/:option/:action/:defender_id/
ladder/:ladder_id'', :controller => ''ladder'',
:option => /laddr/
map.connect ''/:option/match/refuse/:id'', :controller =>
''match'', :action => ''refuse'', :option
=> /laddr/
map.connect ''/:option/match/result/:id'', :controller =>
''match'', :action => ''result'', :option
=> /laddr/
map.connect ''/:option/match/:match_id/:action/:id'',
:controller =>
''match'', :option => /laddr/
# Install the default route as the lowest priority.
map.connect ''/:option/:controller/:action/:id.:format'',
:option => /
laddr/
map.connect ''/:option/:controller/:action/:id'', :option
=> ''/laddr/''
The optional bit, doesn''t seem to be optional, so if I do
http://localhost:3000/
I get an error :
"no route found to match "/" with {:method=>:get}"
but when I add the /laddr it works fine. I can live with that, but it
also breaks static files, stylesheets and images for example, as it''s
now looking for those in /laddr/stylesheets
I don''t really like the idea of having 2 sets of routes, because,
well, I only want to maintain 1 and not forget about the production
ones all the time (because you know that''s what will happen).
