Rails: Check output of path helper from console

You can show them with rake routes directly.

In a Rails console, you can call app.post_path. This will work in Rails ~= 2.3 and >= 3.1.0.


you can also

include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers

from inside a console sessions to access the helpers:

url_for controller: :users, only_path: true
users_path
# => '/users'

or

Rails.application.routes.url_helpers.users_path

In the Rails console, the variable app holds a session object on which you can call path and URL helpers as instance methods.

app.users_path
