  get "book/new"

  get "book/create"

  get "book/edit"

  get "book/update"

Here is the html code for new.html.erb

<h1>Add new book</h1>
<form accept-charset="UTF-8" action="/book/create" method="post">

<input id="book_title" name="book[title]" size="30" type="text" /></p>
<p><label for="book_price">Price</label>:
<input id="book_price" name="book[price]" size="30" type="text" /></p>
<p><label for="book_subject">Subject</label>:
<input id="subject_subject" name="subject[subject]" size="30" type="text" /></p>

<textarea cols="40" id="book_description" name="book[description]" rows="20">
</textarea></p>
<input name="commit" type="submit" value="Create" />
<a href="/book/list">Back</a>

Here is bookcontoller.rb

class BookController < ApplicationController
   def list
      @books = Book.find(:all)
   end
   def show
      @book = Book.find(params[:id])
   end
   def new
      @book = Book.new
      @subjects = Subject.find(:all)
   end
   def create
      @book = Book.new(params[:book])
      if @book.save
            redirect_to :action => 'list'
      else
            @subjects = Subject.find(:all)
            render :action => 'new'
      end
   end
   def edit
      @book = Book.find(params[:id])
      @subjects = Subject.find(:all)
   end
   def update
      @book = Book.find(params[:id])
      if @book.update_attributes(params[:book])
         redirect_to :action => 'show', :id => @book
      else
         @subjects = Subject.find(:all)
         render :action => 'edit'
      end
   end
   def delete
      Book.find(params[:id]).destroy
      redirect_to :action => 'list'
   end
   def show_subjects
      @subject = Subject.find(params[:id])
   end

just include post "book/create"router.rb in the file

From what I see from your question, you are fighting against the Rails convention, which makes things harder. You should:

  • Only resources :booksin routes.rb
  • Use a helper form_for(@book)that will create the correct form to create the book in new.erb.

Rails. :

Clear the routes.rb file to just include this:

Library::Application.routes.draw do
  resources :books, :except => [:index] do
    collection do
      get :list
      get :show_subjects
    end
  end
end
