* Use Rails to Render Default Index Pageschneems2012-12-101-7/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an alternative implementation to #7771 thanks to the advice of @spastorino Rails is a dynamic framework that serves a static index.html by default. One of my first questions ever on IRC was solved by simply deleting my public/index.html file. This file is a source of confusion when starting as it over-rides any set "root" in the routes yet it itself is not listed in the routes. By making the page dynamic by default we can eliminate this confusion. This PR moves the static index page to an internal controller/route/view similar to `rails/info`. When someone starts a rails server, if no root is defined, this route will take over and the "dynamic" index page from rails/welcome_controller will be rendered. These routes are only added in development. If a developer defines a root in their routes, it automatically takes precedence over this route and will be rendered, with no deleting of files required. In addition to removing this source of confusion for new devs, we can now use Rails view helpers to build and render this page. While not the primary intent, the added value of "dogfooding" should not be under-estimated. The prior PR #7771 had push-back since it introduced developer facing files. This PR solves all of the same problems, but does not have any new developer facing files (it actually removes one). cc/ @wsouto, @dickeyxxx, @tyre, @ryanb, @josevalim, @maxim, @subdigital, @steveklabnik ATP Railties and Actionpack.

* added full file path in all file referencesYoni Yalovitsky2012-12-031-9/+9
| | | | | It's really comfy being able to copy-paste the file paths. I suppose there's also some benefit in trying to figure out the file name as a small exercise, but I don't think that sort of thing belongs in "Getting Started".
