center

rails latest stable - Class: ActiveSupport::Multibyte::Chars

Method deprecated or moved

This method is deprecated or moved on the latest stable version. The last existing version (v3.2.13) is shown here.

center(integer, padstr=' ')
public

Works just like String#center, only integer specifies characters instead of bytes.

Example:

"¾ cup".mb_chars.center(8).to_s
# => " ¾ cup  "

"¾ cup".mb_chars.center(8, " ").to_s # Use non-breaking whitespace
# => " ¾ cup  "
