Helpers related to formatting or manipulating text within templates.
Reports the approximate distance in time between two Time or Date objects or integers as seconds. Set include_seconds to true if you want more detailed approximations when distance < 1 min, 29 secs Distances are reported based on the following table:
0 <-> 29 secs # => less than a minute 30 secs <-> 1 min, 29 secs # => 1 minute 1 min, 30 secs <-> 44 mins, 29 secs # => [2..44] minutes 44 mins, 30 secs <-> 89 mins, 29 secs # => about 1 hour 89 mins, 29 secs <-> 23 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs # => about [2..24] hours 23 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs <-> 47 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs # => 1 day 47 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs <-> 29 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs # => [2..29] days 29 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 30 secs <-> 59 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs # => about 1 month 59 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 30 secs <-> 1 yr minus 1 sec # => [2..12] months 1 yr <-> 1 yr, 3 months # => about 1 year 1 yr, 3 months <-> 1 yr, 9 months # => over 1 year 1 yr, 9 months <-> 2 yr minus 1 sec # => almost 2 years 2 yrs <-> max time or date # => (same rules as 1 yr)
With include_seconds = true and the difference < 1 minute 29 seconds:
0-4 secs # => less than 5 seconds 5-9 secs # => less than 10 seconds 10-19 secs # => less than 20 seconds 20-39 secs # => half a minute 40-59 secs # => less than a minute 60-89 secs # => 1 minute

Attempts to pluralize the singular word unless count is 1. If plural is supplied, it will use that when count is > 1, otherwise it will use the Inflector to determine the plural form
@param [Fixnum] count
The count which determines pluralization.
@param [String] singular
The word to be pluralized if appropriate based on +count+.
@param [String] plural
Explicit pluralized word to be used; if not specified uses inflector.
@return [String] The properly pluralized word.

pluralize(2, 'person') => '2 people'
@api public
# File lib/padrino-helpers/format_helpers.rb, line 110 def pluralize(count, singular, plural = nil) "#{count || 0} " + ((count == 1 || count == '1') ? singular : (plural || singular.pluralize)) end
Returns text transformed into HTML using simple formatting rules. Two or more consecutive newlines(nn) are considered as a paragraph and wrapped in <p> or your own tags. One newline (n) is considered as a linebreak and a <br /> tag is appended. This method does not remove the newlines from the text.
@param [String] text
The simple text to be formatted.
@param [Hash] options
Formatting options for the text. Can accept html options for the wrapper tag.
@option options [Symbol] :tag (p)
The html tag to use for formatting newlines.
@return [String] The text formatted as simple HTML.
@example
simple_format("hello\nworld") # => "<p>hello<br/>world</p>" simple_format("hello\nworld", :tag => :div, :class => :foo) # => "<div class="foo">hello<br/>world</div>"
@api public
# File lib/padrino-helpers/format_helpers.rb, line 82 def simple_format(text, options={}) t = options.delete(:tag) || :p start_tag = tag(t, options.merge(:open => true)) text = text.to_s.dup text.gsub!(/\r\n?/, "\n") # \r\n and \r -> \n text.gsub!(/\n\n+/, "</#{t}>\n\n#{start_tag}") # 2+ newline -> paragraph text.gsub!(/([^\n]\n)(?=[^\n])/, '\1<br />') # 1 newline -> br text.insert 0, start_tag text << "</#{t}>" end
Like distance_of_time_in_words, but where to_time is fixed to Time.now.
@param [Time] from_time
The time to be compared against now in order to approximate the distance.
@param [Boolean] include_seconds
Set true for more detailed approximations.
@return [String] The time formatted as a relative string.
@example
time_ago_in_words(3.minutes.from_now) # => 3 minutes time_ago_in_words(Time.now - 15.hours) # => 15 hours time_ago_in_words(Time.now) # => less than a minute
@api public

Truncates a given text after a given :length if text is longer than :length (defaults to 30). The last characters will be replaced with the :omission (defaults to “…”) for a total length not exceeding :length.
@param [String] text

@param [Hash] options
Formatting options for the truncation.
@option options [Fixnum] :length (30)
The number of characters before truncation occurs.

@return [String] The text truncated after the given number of characters.
@example
truncate("Once upon a time in a world far far away", :length => 8) => "Once upon..."
@api public
# File lib/padrino-helpers/format_helpers.rb, line 133 def truncate(text, options={}) options.reverse_merge!(:length => 30, :omission => "...") if text len = options[:length] - options[:omission].length chars = text (chars.length > options[:length] ? chars[0...len] + options[:omission] : text).to_s end end
Truncates words of a given text after a given :length if number of words in text is more than :length (defaults to 30). The last words will be replaced with the :omission (defaults to “…”) for a total number of words not exceeding :length.
@param [String] text
The text to be truncated.
@param [Hash] options
Formatting options for the truncation.
@option options [Fixnum] :length (30)
The number of words before truncation occurs.

Wraps the text into lines no longer than line_width width. This method breaks on the first whitespace character that does not exceed line_width (which is 80 by default).
@overload word_wrap(text, options={})
@param [String] text The text to be wrapped. @param [Hash] options Formatting options for the wrapping. @option options [Fixnum] :line_width (80) The line width before a wrap should occur.
@return [String] The text with line wraps for lines longer then line_width
@example
word_wrap('Once upon a time', :line_width => 8) => "Once upon\na time"
@api public
# File lib/padrino-helpers/format_helpers.rb, line 187 def word_wrap(text, *args) options = args.extract_options! unless args.blank? options[:line_width] = args[0] || 80 end options.reverse_merge!(:line_width => 80) text.split("\n").map do |line| line.length > options[:line_width] ? line.gsub(/(.{1,#{options[:line_width]}})(\s+|$)/, "\\1\n").strip : line end * "\n" end
