# == HTTP Methods
#
# With conditions you can define restrictions on routes. Currently the only valid condition is <tt>:method</tt>.
# Using the <tt>:via</tt> option when specifying a route allows you to restrict it to a specific HTTP method.
# Possible values are <tt>:post</tt>, <tt>:get</tt>, <tt>:put</tt>, <tt>:delete</tt> and <tt>:any</tt>.
# If your route needs to respond to more than one method you can use an array, e.g. <tt>[ :get, :post ]</tt>.
# The default value is <tt>:any</tt> which means that the route will respond to any of the HTTP methods.
#
# * <tt>:method</tt> - Allows you to specify which HTTP method(s) can access the route. Possible values are
# <tt>:post</tt>, <tt>:get</tt>, <tt>:put</tt>, <tt>:delete</tt> and <tt>:any</tt>. Use an array to specify more
# than one method, e.g. <tt>[ :get, :post ]</tt>. The default value is <tt>:any</tt>, <tt>:any</tt> means that any
# method can access the route.
# Examples:
#
# Example:
#
# get 'post/:id' => 'posts#show'
# post 'post/:id' => "posts#create_comment'
# match 'post/:id' => 'posts#show', :via => :get
# match 'post/:id' => "posts#create_comment', :via => :post
#
# Now, if you POST to <tt>/posts/:id</tt>, it will route to the <tt>create_comment</tt> action. A GET on the same
# URL will route to the <tt>show</tt> action.
# URL will route to the <tt>show</tt> action.
#
# === HTTP helper methods
#
# An alternative method of specifying which HTTP method a route should respond to is to use the helper
# methods <tt>get</tt>, <tt>post</tt>, <tt>put</tt> and <tt>delete</tt>.
#
# Examples:
#
# get 'post/:id' => 'posts#show'
# post 'post/:id' => "posts#create_comment'
#
# This syntax is less verbose and the intention is more apparent to someone else reading your code,
# however if your route needs to respond to more than one HTTP method (or all methods) then using the
# <tt>:via</tt> option on <tt>match</tt> is preferable.
