- What's this?
humanize(lower_case_and_underscored_word, options = {})
public
Tweaks an attribute name for display to end users.
Specifically, humanize performs these transformations:
* Applies human inflection rules to the argument. * Deletes leading underscores, if any. * Removes a "_id" suffix if present. * Replaces underscores with spaces, if any. * Downcases all words except acronyms. * Capitalizes the first word.
The capitalization of the first word can be turned off by setting the :capitalize option to false (default is true).
humanize('employee_salary') # => "Employee salary" humanize('author_id') # => "Author" humanize('author_id', capitalize: false) # => "author" humanize('_id') # => "Id"
If “SSL” was defined to be an acronym:
humanize('ssl_error') # => "SSL error"
