Helper Methods inside of a Controller
When needing to include a helper method inside of a controller, instead of including the ENTIRE helper module, simply use this method like so:
module ApplicationHelper def fancy_helper(str) str.titleize end end class MyController < ApplicationController def index @title = view_context.fancy_helper "dogs are awesome" end end
