Issue with routing

Rails
1

Hi everyone. I’m newbe in ROR and recently faced with a routing problem.
Here’s my route:

post ‘:type/delete/:id’ => ‘todolist#delete_item’, as: ‘delete’,
constraints: {type: ‘project|task’}

my link:

<%= link_to ‘’, delete_path(type:‘project’,id: project.id),{class:
‘glyphicon glyphicon-trash’,data:{project_id: project.id},remote:
true}%>

I get an error No route matches [GET] “/project/delete/158” WHY GET
method???

routes:
todolist_index GET /todolist/index(.:format) todolist#index
sessions_new GET /sessions/new(.:format) sessions#new
users_new GET /users/new(.:format) users#new
log_out GET /log_out(.:format) sessions#destroy

link_to by default uses the GET method. You can tell it to use POST by
supplying method: :post in the parameter hash.

You might consider, since you’re performing a delete action of some
sort,
using the HTTP verb DELETE instead, but that’s entirely up to you.

   sign_up GET    /sign_up(.:format)           users#new
           POST   /sessions(.:format)          sessions#create
    delete POST   /:type/:id(.:format)         todolist#delete_item

{:type=>“project|task”}

Thx very much. I tried to use method: post but couldn’t figure out how
to do that properly(I mean syntax).So how it should be correctly?!

<%= link_to { delete_path(type:‘project’,id: project.id),remote:
true, method: post},{class:
‘glyphicon glyphicon-trash’,data:{project_id: project.id} do }%>

I concern I passed the wrong route parameters
