`draw` method to explore routes in the console
# All these requires are just for running via `irb`, if using `bin/rails console` you probably just need the method.
require "active_support/all" # Got an inflector NoMethodError, so I'm just being lazy here.
require "action_dispatch"
require "action_dispatch/routing/route_set"
require "action_dispatch/routing/inspector"
require "action_controller" # For the ActionController::Parameters autoload, which any route helper uses.
# Console helper play around with the routing DSL and tweak an individual route you're building.
#
# draw { resources :posts } => routes
# routes.url_helpers.photos_url(host: "example.com") # => example.com/photos
#
# Basically what `bin/rails routes` does:
