Can we call a Controller's method from a view (as we call from helper ideally)?

Question

In Rails MVC, can you call a controller's method from a view (as a method could be called call from a helper)? If yes, how?

Answer 1

Here is the answer:

class MyController < ApplicationController   def my_method     # Lots of stuff   end   helper_method :my_method end 

Then, in your view, you can reference it in ERB exactly how you expect with <% or <%=:

<% my_method %>
