Building a Controller
You’ve already built a simple controller, so you know the drill. At this point, we could create all of the routes needed by a user automatically, but we’re going to play the boring community lifeguard that yells “Walk!” If you understand how a single route works, it’ll be much easier to explore the powerful shortcuts later. Specifically, we need two routes. UserController.index will show a list of users, and UserController.show will show a single user. As always, create the routes in router.ex:
| | scope "/", Rumbl do |
| | pipe_through :browser |
| | get "/users", UserController, :index |
| | get "/users/:id", UserController, :show |
| | get "/", PageController, ... |
