Restful Routes Basic Lab

Objectives

• Build RESTful routes to create, show, edit, and delete items from the database

Instructions

Instead of keeping all your recipes on index cards (just like your grandma did!), we're going to be building a web app to store those recipes for you!

1. Create a new table in the database to store the recipes. Recipes should have a name, ingredients (which can be written as one string containing all the ingredients), and cook_time.

2. Make sure you have a corresponding model for your recipes.

3. In the application_controller.rb, set up a controller action that will render a form to create a new recipe. This controller action should create and save this new recipe to the database.

4. Again in the application_controller.rb, create a controller action that uses RESTful routes to display a single recipe.

5. Create a third controller action that uses RESTful routes and renders a form to edit a single recipe. This controller action should update the entry in the database with the changes, and then redirect to the recipe show page.

6. Create a controller action (index action) that displays all the recipes in the database.

7. Add to the recipe show page a form that allows a user to delete a recipe. This form should submit to a controller action that deletes the entry from the database and redirects to the index page.
