Hi all
I''m using RESTful routes combined with the to_csv plugin and would
like to know if there''s a nicer way of generating a link to fetch the
CSV file than just making a hard link. This is what I use for the
moment (and it works btw):
<%= link_to("Export as CSV","/companies.csv") -%>
I would expect the link helper to have something like
<%= link_to("Export as CSV",companies_url(:type => :csv) -%>
but haven''t found anything in the rails docs to generate the URL in
this way.
Best regards
Peter De Berdt

Working perfectly, simple... but undocumented.
