How to access Sinatra options in helpers?

Question

How can I access the Sinatra params hash in the user assistant?

eg:.

 # in app/helpers/my_helper.rb module MyApp module MyHelper def self.test () params.inspect end end end # in app.rb helpers MyHelper test_result = test # undefined method `params' for MyApp:Module 

Answer 1

You do not need self for helpers:

 module MyApp module MyHelper def test() params.inspect end end end 

Please note that the helper is available only in the context of the request (that is, during the processing of the request):

 get '/' do test_result = test # ... end 

Answer 2

Replace params.inspect with params[:inspect] . That should work.
