Optional route params not included in translated URL about route_translator HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi!

Thanks for being part of the Route Translator community and apologies for the late reply

I think this issue is not related to Route Translator but it depends on how url_for works for routes with optional parameters

Example on a basic Rails application without Route Translator:

# routes.rb
Rails.application.routes.draw do
  get "posts(/page/:page(/items/:items))", controller: :posts, action: :index, as: :posts
end

<!-- index.html.erb -->
<%= url_for %>

Url: http://localhost:3000/posts/page/2

Output: /posts

I will clarify in the Wiki that url_for works for basic use cases and that optional route parameters are not taken into account

It is possible to force the params by using

<%= url_for(**params.permit!) # DON'T %>

but I would not do that. Probably this use case requires a custom url generation technique

Hope it helps
