Elad on Rails: List all Controllers and actions

List all Controllers and actions

Friday, June 6, 2008 at 5:32 AM Posted by Elad Meidar

controllers = Dir.new("#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers").entries
controllers.each do |controller|
if controller =~ /_controller/
 cont = controller.camelize.gsub(".rb","")
 puts cont
 (eval("#{cont}.new.methods") -
   ApplicationController.methods -
   Object.methods - 
   ApplicationController.new.methods).sort.each {|met|
      puts "\t#{met}"
   }
end

end

If a controller has an action (e.g. "new") that is also in ActionController, then that action is not listed by this script. At this moment I'm not sure what the solution is. But I thought I'd mention it in case anyone else stumbles across this post.

the solution is to handle application_controller seperatly from the other controllers, i am sure you can figure out from this code how to do it.
if not, you can always ask me :)
