How to update routes.rb (dynamic urls)

I have this code in my routes.rb

shops = Shop.all
shops.each do |shop|
match "/#{shop.url}" => 'shops#show', :id => shop.id
end

So url can be like http: //site/url & not like http: //site/shops/1

& It does work, but I have to restart server after adding a new shop.

Maybe, there is a way to do this stuff without restarting? Or, some other way around?

Thank you

This is an old rails cast, but you'll find elements of answer there

As a general advise: you won't need do this kind of loop in your routes, study the tools made available by rails routing and use them
