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; end  end    class BarEngine::ApplicationController < ActionController::Base    def welcome; end  end    class BarEngine::SessionsController < FooEngine::SessionsController  end

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    end  end

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.
