Try gem rack-rewrite, that can solve your problem. Cheers, Lecky On Jun 23, 6:16 am, Joe <j...-T/oTI28FLjDQXOPxS62xeg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Bump?!

I see code like this used in examples:
config.gem ''rack-rewrite'', ''~> 1.0.0''
require ''rack/rewrite''
config.middleware.insert_before(Rack::Lock, Rack::Rewrite) do
rewrite ''/wiki/John_Trupiano'', ''/john''
r301 ''/wiki/Yair_Flicker'', ''/yair''
r302 ''/wiki/Greg_Jastrab'', ''/greg''
r301 %r{/wiki/(\w+)_\w+}, ''/$1''
end
Where does this code go?
How can I make this apply to a whole group? For example instead of
only making tutorials/61 go to the proper URL, making anything that is
just "/tutorials/SOMETHING" go to the proper URL?
Please Help,
Thanks In Advance,
-Joe

Re: Redirecting old URLs to new permalinked URLs
I program in many languages, and that does not stand out to me. I know C++, Java, CSS, HTML, Lua, and Visual Basic; and that doesn''t stand out to me. I assume that this is from a whole different category of programming/scripting languages; of which I don''t know. Could you please explain to me how it works, and how I can use it in my personal scenario?

Re: Redirecting old URLs to new permalinked URLs
Hmm. Ok. Ill look into it.
So I guess ill want something like this: r301 %r{/tutorials/(\w+)}, ''/
$1''
But instead of using the first unknown word variable (as "/$1" would
refer to (as far as I know)); I want it to go to my permalinked URL
(http://127.0.0.1:3000/categories/1-css/tutorials/12-test9 ).
Please Help (Meanwhile ill look up some regex),
Thanks In Advance,
Joe

But one last try. Your original example: http://127.0.0.1:3000/categories/1-css/tutorials/12-test9 http://127.0.0.1:3000/tutorials/12-test9 http://127.0.0.1:3000/categories/1/tutorials/12 http://127.0.0.1:3000/tutorials/12 Sure, you can manually enter rewrite rules for *every one* of your tutorials and categories, and avoid using regular expressions. Be my guest. :-) Or you can start with the simplest example above, and figure out how a simple regex can give you "12" from "/tutorials/12". Write a method to take that value "12" and return "12-test9". Put that in a rewrite rule. Try it with a couple of other values. Works? Good. Start on the next most complex string.

I''m using the to_param method in the model file(s). ill try to look up some regex as it could improve my general programming as well as helping with this project.
