Since I couldn't get the after :create hook to work, I tried putting
this ugly code in a handler:
post '/new' do
@page = Page.create(params[:page])
@page.url = '/mysite/' << self.id.to_s
@page.save
This 'works', but strangely the id seems to be an object id, rather
than the id property from the database. What's going on here??
There must be a way of using a resource's id property to set another
property ... surely?
cheers,
DAZ
