Rails 3 Scaffolding, adding routes

Question

rails 3 newbie, with the general question of adding an extra route after scaffolding.

I create a scaffold for books ... Which works great and provides a nice index page.

The Index page displays all the books in the system. I would like to add the '/ books / yours' page, which shows the books created by the user. I already added user_id to the book table to work when users create new books. But I can’t figure out how to add your page ... Here's what I did:

In books_controller.rb added:

  def yours
        @books = Books.all

        respond_to do |format|
      format.html # yours.html.erb
     format.xml  { render :xml => @notes }
    end
  end

Then I added the views / books / yours.html.erb page with only the H1 tag that says bingo ...

Then in routes.rb I added:

Cline :: Application.routes.draw do

  resources :books
  devise_for :users
    match '/books/yours', :to => 'books#yours'
    root :to => 'pages#home'

But that won't work? What did I do wrong? thanks!

Answer 1

:

resources :books do  
  collection do  
    get 'yours'  
  end 
end 

, URL- :/books/yours
