method

center

rails latest stable - Class: ActiveSupport::Multibyte::Handlers::UTF8Handler

center(str, integer, padstr=' ')

public

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

Example:

  "Â¾ cup".chars.center(8).to_s
  # => " Â¾ cup  "

  "Â¾ cup".chars.center(8, "Â ").to_s # Use non-breaking whitespace
  # => "Â Â¾ cupÂ Â "

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/multibyte/handlers/utf8_handler.rb, line 215
      def center(str, integer, padstr=' ')
        justify(str, integer, :center, padstr)
      end
