+      # ==== Options
+      # +prefix_options+ - A \hash to add a \prefix to the request for nested URLs (e.g., <tt>:account_id => 19</tt>
+      #                    would yield a URL like <tt>/accounts/19/purchases.json</tt>).
+      # +query_options+ - A \hash to add items to the query string for the request.
+      #
+      # ==== Examples
+      #   Weather.singleton_path
+      #   # => /weather.json
