[Facebooker-talk] Problems with *_path() and *_url() helpers when using Publisher

[Nick Holland]

Mike,

As requested, here is the code involved:

routes.rb
--------------------------

ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map|
 map.resource :home
end

event_publisher.rb
--------------------------

class EventPublisher < Facebooker::Rails::Publisher
 include ActionController::UrlWriter

 def profile_update(uid, session)
   user = Facebooker::User.new(uid, session)
   send_as :profile
   from user
   recipients user

   Facebooker::Session.current = session

   profile render(:partial => 'profile/profile' )
 end
end

_profile.fbml.erb
----------------------

<%= render(:partial => 'profile/style' ) %>

<div id="content" class="wide">
 <%= link_to 'test', home_path %>
</div>

----------------------

Pretty basic stuff -- I hope I'm doing something thats obvious so I
can get this fixed up ;) I am using resource routes throughout the
rest of my code without issue. It is just partials under Publisher
that fail.

Thanks,
Nick
