@Jeremy: #1 seems to be the easiest, but #2 is the best solution.
Here's my view of how this can work: class TasksController < ApplicationController # Specify which class has the generic scaffolding methods scaffold :my_custom_scaffold_class # or we bundle a generic class with the gem scaffold # Overriding is possible def show(id) # instance variable is already injected by our gem # do something with the @task end end or even class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base scaffold end to propagate to all controllers which inherit from ApplicationController.
