I want to encrypt routes in ruby on rails application through routes file.

Sample URL: http://localhost:3000/users or http://localhost:3000/users/1/edit

Encrypted URL: http://localhost:3000/dshfkhjkbkbjkdfjkfdhk or http://localhost:3000/dshfkhjkbkbjkdfjkfdhk/dskjfs/hdfkjdf

It's possible to encrypt using any gem. How to manage all routes encryption at the Application level

Thank you in Advance

You can't. All you can do is implement your own router, and map all encrypted paths to a single controller and let that controller call your router.

# config/routes.rb
match '*path', to: 'encrypted#index', via: :all

class EncryptedController < ApplicationController
  def index
    path = params[:path]
    decrypted_path = path.split('/').map{|part| decrypt(part)}.join('/')
    MyRouter.dispatch(request.method, decrypted_path, request)
  end
end

module MyRouter
  def self.dispatch(request_method, path, request)
    # Your own dispatching logic here.
    # Note that this method should return a Rack-compatible response.
  end
end
