Custom Inflections
Jets lookups folders, files, and classes based on naming conventions. It singularizes or pluralizes words as a part of this naming convention. For example:
| controller | model | views folder |
|---|---|---|
| PostsController | Post | app/views/posts |
| ToysController | Toy | app/views/toys |
Sometimes you might want to override the grammatical inflections. You can do this by configuring a config/inflections.yml with your own custom inflections. Example:
config/inflections.yml:
octopus: octopi
person: people
hi: hi
This changes the singularization and pluralization of words to fit your needs.
