new(klass, namespace = nil, name = nil, locale = :en)

Returns a new ActiveModel::Name instance. By default, the namespace and name option will take the namespace and name of the given class respectively. Use locale argument for singularize and pluralize model name.

module Foo
  class Bar
  end
end

ActiveModel::Name.new(Foo::Bar).to_s
# => "Foo::Bar"

# File activemodel/lib/active_model/naming.rb, line 50

==(other)

Equivalent to String#==. Returns true if the class name and other are equal, otherwise false.

  extend ActiveModel::Naming
end

BlogPost.model_name == 'BlogPost'  # => true
BlogPost.model_name == 'Blog Post' # => false

=~(regexp)

Equivalent to String#=~. Match the class name against the given regexp. Returns the position where the match starts or nil if there is no match.

eql?(other)

Equivalent to String#eql?. Returns true if the class name and other have the same length and content, otherwise false.

human(options = {})

Transform the model name into a more human format, using I18n. By default, it will underscore then humanize the class name.

class BlogPost
  extend ActiveModel::Naming
end

BlogPost.model_name.human # => "Blog post"

Specify options with additional translating options.

  defaults = @klass.lookup_ancestors.map do |klass|
    klass.model_name.i18n_key
