Elegant Rails: multiple routes, same controller action

Question

What is the most elegant way to have multiple routes go to the same controller action?

I have:

  get 'dashboard', to: 'dashboard#index'
  get 'dashboard/pending', to: 'dashboard#index'
  get 'dashboard/live', to: 'dashboard#index'
  get 'dashboard/sold', to: 'dashboard#index'

This is quite ugly. Any "more elegant" recommendations?
Bonus points for a one liner.

Answer 1

Why not have just one route and one controller action, and differ the functionality based on params passed to it?

config/routes.rb:

get 'dashboard', to: 'dashboard#index'

app/controller/dashboard_controller.rb

def index
  ...
  if params[:pending]
     # pending related stuff
  end
  if params[:live] 
    # live related stuff
  end
  if params[:sold] 
    # sold related stuff
  end     
  ...
end

links in views

• pending: <%= link_to "Pending", dashboard_path(pending: true) %>
• live: <%= link_to "Live", dashboard_path(live: true) %>
• sold: <%= link_to "Sold", dashboard_path(sold: true) %>
