Re: [Rails] Turning URL varables into URLs

Ruby on Rails Wednesday, January 24, 2018

I don't know why you're still trying /cheapevents when you haven't defined it at all.

Not best practices really, but try something like:

get 'events/:cost', to: 'upcoming_events#index'

and then in your controller, respond based on things like:

if params[:cost] == "cheap"
  @events = Events.where("price < 5")
end

So you can then navigate to url.name/events/cheap

Great, thanks, almost there.  Mine is slightly different as its not based on CRUD, its a ruby view based on a SQL view.  So

get '/patients/:id', to: 'patients#show'
 

Is not quite what I need.  If I have this view as root view (http://domain.tld) and want to pass cost as a variable (http://domain.tld?cost=cheapevents = http://domain.tld/cheapevents). Its the site root

currently I have 

root 'upcoming_events#index'

get 'upcoming_events/index'

I tried

get 'upcoming_events/index:cost', to: 'upcoming_events#index'

And it works for root but if I try http://domain.tld/cheapevents I get

No route matches [GET] "/cheapevents"
