How do I extract Rails view helpers into a gem? <p>I have a set of rails view helpers that I use regularly, and would like to package them up into a gem, such that I could just put a line in my Gemfile, and have the helpers accessible from my views.</p> <p>I have created gems before using Bundler, and Jeweler, however, I'm not all all clear on how to organize the Rails view helpers in a gem, and include them into rails.</p> <p>I would appreciate any pointers, or links to up-to-date tutorials on how to do this for Rails 3</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p>Just to clarify: The question isn't on "how to create a gem". Its "how to package view helpers in a gem, so I can use them in Rails"</p> <p>Edit 2: I also agree with the poster below.. A rails engine is waay too much overkill for this kind of (hopefully simple) requirement</p>
