resource routes to be mapped to a custom path in rails 4

custom-routes, ruby-on-rails-4

Solution

You can write your route like this:

resources :products, path: 'items'

This will generate `/items` routes with `product_*` named helpers, using `ProductsController`. Have a look at this part of the Routing Guides.

Problem

I have a route like: ``` resources :products ``` Now I have all my code is in place but just need to change the paths from `/products/:action to /items/:action` I have already skimmed through the rails docs but could not figure this out. It looks very basic and should be easy, but I just cant put my finger on it. The url I used was: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html#path-and-url-helpers
