helper path outside view

To use a helper path outside of a view in Ruby, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the relevant controller file where the action is defined. This file is usually located in the "app/controllers" directory.

2. Inside the controller action, assign the helper path to a variable using the url_for method. For example:

my_helper_path = url_for(action: 'my_helper_action', controller: 'my_helper_controller')

Replace 'my_helper_action' with the name of the helper action you want to use, and 'my_helper_controller' with the name of the helper controller.

1. Pass the variable containing the helper path to the view. You can do this by setting an instance variable in the controller action, like so:

@my_helper_path = my_helper_path

1. Save the controller file and open the relevant view file. This file is usually located in the "app/views" directory.

2. In the view, you can now use the helper path by calling the instance variable you set in the controller. For example:

<%= link_to 'My Helper', @my_helper_path %>

Replace 'My Helper' with the desired link text.

By following these steps, you should be able to use a helper path outside of a view in Ruby. Remember to adjust the names of the helper action and controller according to your specific project structure.
