Renaming a Controller

Rename Controller understands the semantics and relationships of Controllers, Views, Helpers and Tests. Rename Controller goes beyond renaming the Controller, the Controller file and references to the Controller class. Rename Controller also applies Rails logical relationship and naming rules to the associated views, helpers, tests and the view directories.

It also handles multiple definitions of the Controller class, for instance the additional definition of the Controller class in the related functional test.

These are the major items handled by Controller refactoring:

• Renames the Controller file to follow Rails naming conventions.
• Renames the Controller class and references to the Controller class.
• Renames the associated Rails helper class and file.
• Renames the associated Rails functional test class and file.
• Renames relevant logical Controller references such as :Controller => “Controller_name”.
• Renames associate layout and references.
• Renames the View directory.
• Renames the Controller references in routes.
