How to use routing helpers in a model with Rails 3?

Question

In a model callback I make an API call and need to give the API some URLs. Those URLs would be easily generated by a routing helper.

The solution given in this answer does not work anymore in Rails 3.

Any solution? Thanks :)

Answer 1

Got an answer from the rails IRC: just add

  include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers 

to your model

Answer 2

In Rails 3 you can use:

Rails.application.routes.url_helpers 

e.g.

Rails.application.routes.url_helpers.posts_path
