Public Instance Methods

camelcase(first_letter = :upper)
Alias for: camelize
camelize(first_letter = :upper) click to toggle source

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.

"active_record".camelize                # => "ActiveRecord"
"active_record".camelize(:lower)        # => "activeRecord"
"active_record/errors".camelize         # => "ActiveRecord::Errors"
"active_record/errors".camelize(:lower) # => "activeRecord::Errors"
# File lib/tennpipes-assist/core_ext/string/inflections.rb, line 75
def camelize(first_letter = :upper)
  case first_letter
    when :upper then ActiveSupport::Inflector.camelize(self, true)
    when :lower then ActiveSupport::Inflector.camelize(self, false)
  end
end
Also aliased as: camelcase
classify() click to toggle source

Create a class name from a plural table name like Rails does for table names to models. Note that this returns a string and not a class. (To convert to an actual class follow classify with constantize.)

"egg_and_hams".classify # => "EggAndHam"
"posts".classify        # => "Post"

Singular names are not handled correctly.

"business".classify # => "Busines"
# File lib/tennpipes-assist/core_ext/string/inflections.rb, line 95
def classify
  ActiveSupport::Inflector.classify(self)
end
colorize(args) click to toggle source

colorize(:red)

# File lib/tennpipes-assist/core_ext/string/colorize.rb, line 17
def colorize(args)
  case args
  when Symbol
    Colorizer.send(args, self)
  when Hash
    Colorizer.send(args[:color], self, args[:mode])
  end
end
constantize() click to toggle source

constantize tries to find a declared constant with the name specified in the string. It raises a NameError when the name is not in CamelCase or is not initialized.

"Module".constantize # => Module
"Class".constantize  # => Class
# File lib/tennpipes-assist/core_ext/string/inflections.rb, line 48
def constantize
  ActiveSupport::Inflector.constantize(self)
end
pluralize() click to toggle source

Returns the plural form of the word in the string.

"post".pluralize             # => "posts"
"octopus".pluralize          # => "octopi"
"sheep".pluralize            # => "sheep"
"words".pluralize            # => "words"
"the blue mailman".pluralize # => "the blue mailmen"
"CamelOctopus".pluralize     # => "CamelOctopi"
# File lib/tennpipes-assist/core_ext/string/inflections.rb, line 22
def pluralize
  ActiveSupport::Inflector.pluralize(self)
end
singularize() click to toggle source

Returns the singular form of the word in the string.

"posts".singularize            # => "post"
"octopi".singularize           # => "octopus"
"sheep".singularize            # => "sheep"
"words".singularize            # => "word"
"the blue mailmen".singularize # => "the blue mailman"
"CamelOctopi".singularize      # => "CamelOctopus"
# File lib/tennpipes-assist/core_ext/string/inflections.rb, line 36
def singularize
  ActiveSupport::Inflector.singularize(self)
end
underscore() click to toggle source

The reverse of camelize. Makes an underscored, lowercase form from the expression in the string.

underscore will also change '::' to '/' to convert namespaces to paths.

"ActiveRecord".underscore         # => "active_record"
"ActiveRecord::Errors".underscore # => active_record/errors
# File lib/tennpipes-assist/core_ext/string/inflections.rb, line 60
def underscore
  ActiveSupport::Inflector.underscore(self)
end
