Method: String#camelize

Defined in:
lib/sequel/extensions/inflector.rb

#camelize(first_letter_in_uppercase = :upper) ⇒ Object Also known as: camelcase

By default, camelize converts the string 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"
