View file created but can't link to it

I created this file: views/lendings/terms.html.erb

lendings controller works fine for the other views.

I just want to write a link from views/lendings/show to terms.html.erb view

Do i have to write an action in lendings controller just to do that?

How do I configure the routes file? How do I create the link in show view?

<%= link_to 'read terms', lendings_terms_path %>  ?

Thanks!

I tried this and it didn't work

resources :lendings do
  collection do
    get :terms
  end
end

Then it worked with:

resources :lendings do
  member do
    get 'terms' 
  end
end

As explained in: Adding More RESTful Actions/2.10.1 Adding Member Routes.
Check: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html

Yes. you need to create an action called terms inside LendingsController. If you don't need anything special in the view, then you can just leave the method empty. Then in the routes file add this:

resources :lendings do
  collection do
    get :terms
  end
end
