Does the route exist? what is the error you get? try rake routes to see if user_path exists.

Yes, I'm trying all the routes and no one works. It says 'cannot find user_path'. These are the routes that I have.

 user GET /users/:id(.:format) users#show
 PATCH /users/:id(.:format) users#update
 PUT /users/:id(.:format) users#update
 DELETE /users/:id(.:format) users#destroy

In the application.layout those routes are working, I have to specify any special route tu use a different layout?.

Rails: form.view.erb containing model related and non-model related fields?

I would like to have a form in which some of the fields are linked to model and some fields are not. When I use FORM_FOR tag it binds to a particular model and I cannot create form fields that aren't correspond to one of the column name of the table (Model). Hence what I think is I should use FORM_TAG instead of FORM_FOR so that it contains whatever the form fields it want but one thing I can't find by googling is how can I connect specific fields to a model leaving other fields free of model?

In other words, If I have 5 text_fields in a form how can I link only 3 text_fields to a model and leave other 2 fields free?

Custom UUID generator in rails?

I was reading the docs for primary key on postgresql and I saw that there was a way to add a custom stored procedure that returns a UUID. There is a test case as well that uses a custom uuid generator

https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/650ea5e5cf50d8a**********cf1762922d330a8/activerecord/test/cases/adapters/postgresql/uuid_test.rb#L193

But I was not sure how to to implement this myself. Like in the test case where do I place my_uuid_generator() and how to implement it in my rails application?
