Create a class name from a plural table name like Rails does for table names to models. Note that this returns a string and not a Class. (To convert to an actual class follow classify with constantize.)

Examples

"egg_and_hams".classify #=> "EggAndHam"
"posts".classify #=> "Post"

Singular names are not handled correctly

"business".classify #=> "Busines"

# File active_support/inflector.rb, line 231
def classify(table_name)
  # strip out any leading schema name
  camelize(singularize(table_name.to_s.sub(/.*\./, '')))
end
