== Delete Action

This rails plugin adds an extra action to the default `map.resources` routing set.

It is really just a shorthand for

  map.resources :widgets, :member => { :delete => :get }

The idea is to have an action for a confirm delete form, which we tend to render in a modal.

This offers a similar user experience to link_to "widget", widget_url(widget), :method => :delete, :confirm => 'string' but allows for an unobtrusive case.

== Rails 3

See my blog post here: http://blog.amielmartin.com/post/1216720481/delete-action-in-rails-3

The next time I end up using this pattern I will probably come back and update this plugin...

== Example

  map.resources :widgets

  

Will now map the following actions:

  # GET widgets_url                 => index

  # GET new_widget_url              => new

  # POST widgets_url                => create

  # GET widget_url(:id => 1)        => show

  # GET edit_widget_url(:id => 1)   => edit

  # PUT widget_url(:id => 1)        => update

  # GET delete_widget_url(:id => 1) => delete

  # DELETE widget_url(:id => 1)     => destroy
