how get all routes in my rails application?
can I get all routes in my rails application? I need an output like rake routes and put the result in an array. Is it possible? how? You could have a look at way rails spits out those routes from the rake task. It's in /gems/rails/2.3.x/lib/tasks/routes.rake for Rails 2. Seems to be basically doing ActionController::Routing::Routes.routes in the general case and then interrogating that. Well, independently of where you need it, you could do: routes = `rake routes`.split("\n") Or even: routes = `rake routes`.split("\n").map{ |r| r.gsub(', ', ',').split(' ') } In order to spread the headache
