module Harvest::Model::Utility

Public Class Methods

demodulize(class_name_in_module) click to toggle source

Removes the module part from the expression in the string.

Examples:

"ActiveRecord::CoreExtensions::String::Inflections".demodulize # => "Inflections"
"Inflections".demodulize
# File lib/harvest/model.rb, line 105
def demodulize(class_name_in_module)
  class_name_in_module.to_s.gsub(/^.*::/, '')
end
underscore(camel_cased_word) click to toggle source

Makes an underscored, lowercase form from the expression in the string.

Changes '::' to '/' to convert namespaces to paths.

Examples:

"ActiveRecord".underscore         # => "active_record"
"ActiveRecord::Errors".underscore # => active_record/errors

As a rule of thumb you can think of underscore as the inverse of camelize, though there are cases where that does not hold:

"SSLError".underscore.camelize # => "SslError"
# File lib/harvest/model.rb, line 121
