- What's this?
pluralize(count, singular, plural = nil)
public
Attempts to pluralize the singular word unless count is 1. If plural is supplied, it will use that when count is > 1, otherwise it will use the Inflector to determine the plural form
Examples
pluralize(1, 'person') # => 1 person pluralize(2, 'person') # => 2 people pluralize(3, 'person', 'users') # => 3 users pluralize(0, 'person') # => 0 people
Pluralize Without Count
Helper method that returns the word without the count.
application_helper.rb
def pluralize_without_count(count, noun, text = nil) if count != 0 count == 1 ? "#{noun}#{text}" : "#{noun.pluralize}#{text}" end end
Example usage:
_form.html.erb
<%= pluralize_without_count(item.categories.count, 'Category', ':') %>
(Another) Pluralize Without Showing the Count
Thought it would be best to take the source code from pluralize and just remove the count from the output.
Create this helper method in application_helper.rb
# Pluralize without showing the count. def simple_pluralize count, singular, plural=nil ((count == 1 || count =~ /^1(\.0+)?$/) ? singular : (plural || singular.pluralize)) end
This allows you to pass in in the plural word to use as well.
Pluralize Without Count (inline version)
= pluralize(item.categories.count, ‘Category’).sub(/d+s/, ”)
Minor edit of pluralize_without_count
patrickberkeley’s method works great. I corrected the grammar a bit for inflection (the singular error).
application_helper.rb
def pluralize_without_count(count, noun, text = nil) if count != 0 count == 1 ? "an #{noun}#{text}" : "#{noun.pluralize}#{text}" end end
This should work in much older versions of Rails also.
