current_page? inside controller

Is there any easy way of using something like current_page?method from ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper inside controller?

I have routing like:

resources :addresses
resources :mailing_addresses, :controller => 'addresses'

And I would like to do a check in my controller that would look like this:

class AddressesController

  def index
    if current_page?(live_addresses_path)
       # ... logic goes here
    elsif current_page?(addresses_path)
       # ... logic goes here
    end
  end

end

What's the easiest way of achieving it?

Unlike many other helper methods, UrlHelper is not included in your controllers. So, if you want to use it in your controller, you can simply include it there and use it:

class AddressesController

  include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper

  def index
    if current_page?(live_addresses_path)
       # ... logic goes here
    elsif current_page?(addresses_path)
       # ... logic goes here
    end
  end

end
