View context issue when inheriting from an engine controller
I have an engine related rails issue. I have two engines, of which one is mounted. 1. FooEngine 2. BarEngine (mounted at: "/bar") I have three controllers: class FooEngine::SessionsController < BarEngine::ApplicationController def new; endend class BarEngine::ApplicationController < ActionController::Base def welcome; endend class BarEngine::SessionsController < FooEngine::SessionsControllerend In my BarEngine routes file: BarEngine::Engine.routes.draw do root to: "application#welcome" resources :sessions, only: [:new]end For some reason, the view context is not what I expect it to be when I go to "/bar/sessions/new". I would expect to have access to "root_path" for instance, but I do not. I need to use "bar.root_path". E.g. class BarEngine::SessionsController < FooEngine::SessionsController def new view_context.root_path # does not work view_context.bar.root_path # works endend This is surprising to me because BarEngine::SessionsController inherits from FooEngine::SessionsController which inherits from BarEngine::ApplicationController. It seems I'm somehow in the wrong scope inside BarEngine::SessionsController. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
