Rails: call another controller action from a controller

Question

I need to call the create action in controller A, from controller B.

The reason is that I need to redirect differently when I\'m calling from controller B.

Answer 1

You can use url_for to get the URL for a controller and action and then use redirect_to to go to that URL.

redirect_to url_for(:controller => :controller_name, :action => :action_name)
