All actions for this resource will now be at +/admin/posts+.

resources :posts, :path => "admin/posts"

Set a path prefix for this resource.

[:path]

All requests to the posts resources will now go to +Admin::PostsController+.

resources :posts, :module => "admin"

Set the module where the controller can be found. Defaults to nothing.
[:module]

The above example will now change /posts/new to /posts/brand_new

resources :posts, :path_names => { :new => "brand_new" }

Paths not specified are not changed.
Allows you to change the paths of the seven default actions.

PUT /photos/:id/comments/:id
GET /photos/:id/comments/:id/edit
GET /photos/:id/comments/:id

This generates the following comments routes:
