For some reason, my "PUT" method isn't caught by Sinatra using this html. Can someone help me spot the mistake? When I use a "post" action in my controller, it works just the way it is expected...
<form method="post" action="/proposals/<%[email protected]%>/addItem">
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="put"/>
<div>
<label for="item_id">Item list</label>
<select title="Item ID" id="item_id" name='item_id'>
<%@items.each do |item|%>
<option value="<%=item.id%>"><%=item.name%></option>
<%end%>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Add"/></div>
<label for="new_item_name">Create new item</label>
<input type="text" id="new_item_name" name="new_item_name" />
<input type="submit" value="Create"/>
</form>
Be sure to include Rack::MethodOverride
in your config.ru:
use Rack::MethodOverride
That all looks correct. It looks like you either wrote the route string wrong, or it's being caught by another route before your put method. I was curious about this so I wrote up a quick Sinatra app that used a put method, and it does indeed work this way.
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'rubygems'
require 'sinatra'
get '/' do
<<-eos
<html>
<body>
<form action="/putsomething" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="put" />
<input type="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
eos
end
put '/putsomething' do
"You put something!"
end
