How to make auto_link work in script/console

Rails
1

I wanted to take auto_link method for a ride but in script/console I get
the
message that “undefined method ‘tag_options’”.

What do I need to include in order to run auto_link(“ruby on rails”) on
ruby
script/console?

include ActionView::Helpers::TagHelper

or, use the little “helper” thingy, and you don’t have to worry about
including stuff:

helper.auto_link(“ruby on rails”)
=> “ruby on rails”

helper.auto_link(“please visit http://agileconsultingllc.com for

=> “please visit <a href="http://agileconsultingllc.com">http://

Hey thanks! That’s a fantastic tip!

Question is if I do just

pluralize(2,“person”) in script/console without using helper or
including
anything , it works by default. While auto_link(“www.rubyonrails.org”)
chokes with error. Why this discrepancy. Why pluralize method is
automatically loaded.

then it must be windows issue. I killed my script/console then started
another one and it still works.

exit

D:\dev\eii4>ruby script/console
Loading development environment.

pluralize(2,“person”)
=> “2 people”

Are you sure? It doesn’t work for me.

Loading development environment.

pluralize(2,‘person’)
