How to use the “number_to_currency” helper method in the model rather than view?

Question

I would like to use to_dollar method in my model like this:

module JobsHelper      
  def to_dollar(amount)
    if amount < 0
      number_to_cur         


        

Answer 1

Helper methods are generally used for View files. It is not a good practice to use these methods in Model class. But if you want to use then Sam's answer is ok. OR I suggest you can write your own custom method.
