Okay, just a follow up question: is there an automatic way to make an array of all controller names? So that I could use this in the user model to validate the user doesn''t type in any of the controller names. (This is a continued conversation of one that asked about making routes this way: domain.com/username but still retaining the functionality to send the user to a controller if they typed: domain.com/controllername Ramon Tayag On Thu, Feb 26, 2009 at 5:34 PM, Chris Kottom <chris.kottom-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Not sure I understand the behavior you''re after completely, but should be > able to do this by specifying a named route in your routes file before the > default ones. > > Ex: > map.user_profile '':username'', :controller => ''users'', :action => ''show'' > map.connect '':controller/:action/:id'' > ... > > This will have the effect, however, of matching any incoming request with > only one string.

@conts_and_meths = []
controllers = Dir.new("#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers").entries
controllers.each do |controller|
if controller =~ /_controller/ and not controller.index("\.swp")
then
cont = controller.camelize.gsub(".rb","")
meths = (eval("#{cont}.new.methods") -
ApplicationController.methods - Object.methods -
ApplicationController.new.methods).sort
@conts_and_meths << [cont, meths]
end
This gives you the methods too, but you can see how you would just get
the controllers if you wanted. Careful, this is not stuff you want to
expose to everybody.

I would recommend that you hard-code that list and also include controller names you may use in the future and reserved or restricted words.
