Best practices to handle routes for STI subclasses in rails

Question

My Rails views and controllers are littered with redirect_to, link_to, and form_for method calls. Sometimes link_to and <

Answer 1

Following the idea of @Prathan Thananart but trying to not destroy nothing. (since there is so much magic involved)

class Person < Contact
  model_name.class_eval do
    def route_key
     "contacts"
    end
    def singular_route_key
      superclass.model_name.singular_route_key
    end
  end
end

Now url_for @person will map to contact_path as expected.
