NoMethodError: undefined method `url_for'

Rails
#1

Hi every one,

I wrote a Utility class for my application, and i want to use
“url_for”, I included the url_helper but i get this error

NoMethodError: undefined method `url_for’ for UtilityBatch:Class

  • i tried require ‘action_view/helpers/url_helper.rb’
    include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper … with no result

… i was able to construct the urls as strings but i was wondering
what do i need to do to use url_for in my class.

All input is appreciated.

Thank you.

Try using “extend” instead of “include” so as to make the url helpers
class methods.
