Nested resource with Atom Feed Helper

I'm trying to use the Rails Atom Feed Helper to generate a feed for a nested resource. My view template (index.atom.builder) is:

atom_feed(:schema_date => @favourites.first.created_at) do |feed|
  feed.title("Favourites for #{@user.login}")

  feed.updated(@favourites.first.created_at)

  @favourites.each do |favourite|
    feed.entry(favourite, :url => favourite.asset.external_ref) do |entry|
      entry.title(favourite.asset.external_ref)
      entry.content(image_tag(favourite.asset.location), :type => 'html')
      entry.author do |author|
        author.name(@user.login)
      end
    end
  end
end

And I have the following routes:

  map.namespace :public do |pub|
    pub.resources :users, :has_many => [ :favourites ]
    pub.resources :favourites
    pub.resources :assets, :only => [ :show ]
  end

Unfortunately the url is failing to generate for the feed.entry line:

feed.entry(favourite, :url => favourite.asset.external_ref) do |entry|

The error is "undefined method `favourite_url' for ActionView::Base".

I've tried changing the feed.entry line to: 

feed.entry([:public, favourite], :url => favourite.asset.external_ref) do |entry|

But this then returns the entry for an Array rather than a favourite! Someone had a similar problem here also.

I know that adding the line:

map.resource :favourites

to my routes.rb would 'fix' this problem but this resource is only available nested beneath the /public namespace.

Has anyone had this problem before?

Cheers Arfon

Just to follow up. Based upon Michael's suggestion I'm passing the full url param and this seems to generate the correct url for the feed.entry line.

  @favourites.each do |favourite|
    feed.entry(favourite, :url => public_user_favourite_url(:id => favourite, :user_id => @user)) do |entry|
      entry.title(favourite.asset.external_ref)
      entry.content(image_tag(favourite.asset.location), :type => 'html')
      entry.author do |author|
        author.name(@user.zooniverse_user_id)
      end
    end
  end

You are using favourite.asset.external_ref as the title of the entry, which leaves me to believe the URL for that entry should probably be defined as: 

public_user_favourite_url(:id => favourite, :user_id => @user)

Which, if favorite.id = 9 and @user.id = 1, would generate:

http://localhost:3000/public/users/1/favourites/9

Is this what you are looking for?
