resources_id_replace

Replace param name of resources' id. Useful for making user friendly URL.

Example

You can use :replace_id_with option for resources.

resources :users, :replace_id_with => 'name'
    users GET    /users(.:format)            users#index
          POST   /users(.:format)            users#create
 new_user GET    /users/new(.:format)        users#new
edit_user GET    /users/:name/edit(.:format) users#edit
     user GET    /users/:name(.:format)      users#show
          PUT    /users/:name(.:format)      users#update
          DELETE /users/:name(.:format)      users#destroy

Good with the following codes.

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

    name
  end
end
class UsersController < ApplicationController
  def show
    @user = User.find_by_name!(params[:name])
