How to add alias in routes.rb

Question

How to add alias to route file? Something like this:

/rules => 'posts/1', param: id => 1

Is it possible define it in routes.rb

I want

/rules => posts/1 

not

/rules/1 => posts/1

Answer 1

Well, let's look at the official Rails routing guide:

You can also define other defaults in a route by supplying a hash for the :defaults option. This even applies to parameters that you do not specify as dynamic segments.

So then:

get "/rules" => "posts#show", :defaults => { :id => "1" }

Answer 2

try this

get '/rules', to: redirect('/posts/1')
