Get full rails controller name, including the namespace

Question

I\'ve many controllers in different namespaces. The controller_name method only returns the name of the controller, e.g. \'articles\'. Is there any chance to get the full name l

Answer 1

Have you tried:

controller_path

http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/AbstractController/Base.html#method-i-controller_path

Answer 2

Instead of linking to the :controller, :action syntax, can you use nested resources

routes.rb

resources :users do
  resources: articles
end

in your view

= link_to 'Articles', user_article_path(current_user)

The user_article will take care of your namespaces for you.
