Devise current_user in routes.rb

Question

Is there any way to access the current user in routes.rb? I would like a mapping like this:

match /profile => redirect("/profiles/{current_user.name}")

env['warden'] doesn't seem to be set up, so I can't access warden.user.name.

Not sure that's possible. However, you could use a controller:

def profile
    if signed_in?
        redirect_to user_profile_path(current_user)
    else
        redirect_to root_url
    end
end
