Rails: friendly_id

Question

I'm using friendly_id gem in my app. How can I get object's friendly id? When I write @post.id I get 1 but how can I get first_post instead?

Answer 1

There should a method called friendly_id

@post.id # => 1
@post.friendly_id # => first_post

Hope this helps

Answer 2

Alternative to @post.friendly_id:

@post.slug # => first_post
