[Rails] More than one button with custom actions inside new.html.erb

Ruby on Rails Wednesday, April 29, 2015

First thing is I'm no using form_for or any other form tags.

I have a controller

class SomenamesController < ApplicationController

def new

@variable = Modelname.new

end

def create

Modelname.methodfirst # methodfirst is class method

redirect_to(new_somename_path)

end

def deduction

Modelname.new.methodsecond # calling instance method of Modelname

end

a Model

class Modelname < ActiveRecord::Base

def self.methodfirst

# Some code

end

def methodsecond

# Some code

end

a partial file _form.html.erb rendered from new.html.erb

<%= button_to "create action", somenames_path, :class => "btn btn-primary" %>

</div>

<%= button_to "deduction", action: "deduction", :class => "btn btn-primary", method: "post" %>

</div>

new.html.erb

<%= render 'form' %>

Problem is:

<%= button_to "Start recovery printing", recoveries_path, :class => "btn btn-primary" %>

is working fine. Since it calls "create" action inside Somenames

But the second button is not working but throwing an error message

No route matches {:action=>"deduction", :class=>"btn btn-primary", :controller=>"recoveries", :method=>"post"}

Now how can I call custom action "deduction" written inside Somenames controller so that it will call instance method "methodsecond"
