I used the scaffold option to generate a RESTful set of routes to a
Document model. All works as described. Now, I wish to extend the
controller to add a ‘publish’ action on DocumentController and add a
‘publish’ route to mimic what the generated ‘create’ action does. How
do I specify this in the routes.rb file? BTW, I need to keep the
create action as generated.
Well, you could add a ‘publish’ action to your Document controller and
add a ‘publish’ route. Have you looked at any Rails tutorials yet?

You might need to tweak this, but I think what you need is:
map.login 'publish', :controller => 'documents', :action =>
‘publish’
Other than creating publish() in your documents_controller.rb, you
shouldn’t have to change anything else since you’re just adding a
mapping for a new method.

In your routes.rb:
map.resources :document, :collection => { :publish => :post }
and add your
def publish
…
end
in your controller.
