ActiveSupport::Inflector
classify(table_name)public
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.)
Examples:
"egg_and_hams".classify # => "EggAndHam" "posts".classify # => "Post"
Singular names are not handled correctly:
"business".classify # => "Busines"
1Note
Use camelize with singular words
To make the business example work, use +camelize+ instead of +classify+:
"business".camelize # => "Business"
