Method: ActiveSupport::Inflector#humanize

Defined in:

lib/jinx/active_support/inflector.rb

#humanize(lower_case_and_underscored_word) ⇒ Object

Capitalizes the first word and turns underscores into spaces and strips a trailing “_id”, if any. Like titleize, this is meant for creating pretty output.

Examples:

"employee_salary" #=>"Employee salary"
"author_id"       #=>"Author"

# File 'lib/jinx/active_support/inflector.rb', line 230

def humanize(lower_case_and_underscored_word)
  result = lower_case_and_underscored_word.to_s.dup

  inflections.humans.each {  |(rule, replacement)| break if result.gsub!(rule, replacement)  }
  result.gsub(/_id$/, "").gsub(/_/, " ").capitalize
end
