# When a class is inherited, wrap its helper module in a new module.
# This ensures that the parent class's module can be changed

# Declare a controller method as a helper. For example, the following
# makes the +current_user+ controller method available to the view:
# class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
# helper_method :current_user, :logged_in?
#
# def current_user
# @current_user ||= User.find_by_id(session[:user])
# end
#
# def logged_in?
# current_user != nil
# end
# end
#
# In a view:
# <% if logged_in? -%>Welcome, <%= current_user.name %><% end -%>
#
# ==== Parameters
# meths<Array[#to_s]>:: The name of a method on the controller
# to be made available on the view.
def helper_method(*meths)
meths.flatten.each do |meth|
_helpers.class_eval <<-ruby_eval, __FILE__, __LINE__ + 1

end
# The +helper+ class method can take a series of helper module names, a block, or both.
#
# ==== Parameters
# *args<Array[Module, Symbol, String, :all]>
# block<Block>:: A block defining helper methods
#
# ==== Examples
# When the argument is a module it will be included directly in the template class.
# helper FooHelper # => includes FooHelper
#
# When the argument is a string or symbol, the method will provide the "_helper" suffix, require the file
# and include the module in the template class. The second form illustrates how to include custom helpers
# when working with namespaced controllers, or other cases where the file containing the helper definition is not
# in one of Rails' standard load paths:
# helper :foo # => requires 'foo_helper' and includes FooHelper
# helper 'resources/foo' # => requires 'resources/foo_helper' and includes Resources::FooHelper
#
# Additionally, the +helper+ class method can receive and evaluate a block, making the methods defined available
# to the template.
#
# # One line
# helper { def hello() "Hello, world!" end }
#
# # Multi-line
# helper do
# def foo(bar)
# "#{bar} is the very best"
# end
# end
#
# Finally, all the above styles can be mixed together, and the +helper+ method can be invoked with a mix of
# +symbols+, +strings+, +modules+ and blocks.
#
# helper(:three, BlindHelper) { def mice() 'mice' end }
#
def helper(*args, &block)
self._helper_serial = AbstractController::Helpers.next_serial + 1

end
_helpers.module_eval(&block) if block_given?
end

# Makes all the (instance) methods in the helper module available to templates
# rendered through this controller.
#
# ==== Parameters
# mod<Module>:: The module to include into the current helper module
# for the class
def add_template_helper(mod)
_helpers.module_eval { include mod }
end
# Returns a list of modules, normalized from the acceptable kinds of
# helpers with the following behavior:
#
# String or Symbol:: :FooBar or "FooBar" becomes "foo_bar_helper",
# and "foo_bar_helper.rb" is loaded using require_dependency.
#
# Module:: No further processing
#
# After loading the appropriate files, the corresponding modules
# are returned.
#
# ==== Parameters
# args<Array[String, Symbol, Module]>:: A list of helpers
#
# ==== Returns
# Array[Module]:: A normalized list of modules for the list of
# helpers provided.
