Got AbstractController::ActionNotFound: The action 'destroy' could not be found for AuthorsController
If you have problems solving this task, please don't hesitate to contact the teaching team!
Scenario
Given an author named 'Alan Turing' When users visit the authors index page Then it should have link to delete an author
Hints
In order to delete a record according to the REST paradigm, a DELETE request needs to be made. Unfortunately, not many browsers support this. They mostly use GET and POST. However, the DELETE call can be made using JavaScript from the browser. Rails supports this out of the box by including a piece of JavaScript called
rails-ujs
. Using thedata-method
property of links, a different request can be made. This is also supported by Rails helpers:<%= link_to 'Delete', author_path(author), method: :delete %>
