Class Method Details

.camelize(lower_case_and_underscored_word, first_letter_in_uppercase = true) ⇒ Object

By default, camelize converts strings to UpperCamelCase. If the argument to camelize is set to :lower then camelize produces lowerCamelCase.

camelize will also convert ‘/’ to ‘::’ which is useful for converting paths to namespaces.

Examples:

"active_record".camelize                # => "ActiveRecord"
"active_record".camelize(:lower)        # => "activeRecord"
"active_record/errors".camelize         # => "ActiveRecord::Errors"
"active_record/errors".camelize(:lower) # => "activeRecord::Errors"

  if first_letter_in_uppercase
    lower_case_and_underscored_word.to_s.gsub(/\/(.?)/) { "::#{$1.upcase}" }.gsub(/(?:^|_)(.)/) { $1.upcase }
  else
    lower_case_and_underscored_word.first.downcase + camelize(lower_case_and_underscored_word)[1..-1]
  end
end

.humanize(lower_case_and_underscored_word) ⇒ Object

Capitalizes the first word and turns underscores into spaces and strips _id. Like titleize, this is meant for creating pretty output.

Examples:

"employee_salary" #=> "Employee salary"
"author_id" #=> "Author"
