How call distance_of_time_in_words() from a controller instead of a view? Reference: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/DateHelper.html#M001712
This page says this method is in: Module ActionView::Helpers::DateHelper which also says is here: in: actionpack/lib/action_view/helpers/date_helper.rb BUT, HOW IN THE WORLD do I get that included in my controller file? 1) This doesn't work inside the class definition: require "date_helper" as I get this message: MissingSourceFile in MyController#datePage no such file to load -- date_helper 2) THEN, when I try this: helper :date_helper I get this: Missing helper file helpers/date_helper_helper.rb Please help! I bet this is cake if I just know the solution. Thanks very much in advance, Pete -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
