- Class:
ActiveSupport::Inflector
classify(table_name)public
Creates 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).
classify('ham_and_eggs') # => "HamAndEgg" classify('posts') # => "Post"
Singular names are not handled correctly:
classify('calculus') # => "Calculus"
1Note
Use camelize with singular words
To make the business example work, use +camelize+ instead of +classify+:
"business".camelize # => "Business"
