Edit Question
Title
Body
(StackOverflow is telling me that this question is "subjective and likely to be closed"… well, I'll give it a shot regardless) I'm writing a bunch of helper methods (for a TextMate bundle), and I'd like (and I need) to have them neatly namespaced. These methods are really just functions, i.e. they don't operate on anything outside their own scope, and thus don't really belong in a class. There's nothing that needs instantiating. So far, I've been doing this and that works just fine module Helpers::Foo module_function def bar # ... end end Helpers::Foo.bar # this is how I'd like to call the method/function But would it be better to: 1. Skip module_function and declare the methods/functions as self.* ? 2. Or would it be better to declare a class instead of a module? 3. Or use class << self (inside a module or a class)? 4. Or something else entirely? I realize this is a pretty open-ended question, but I'm really just looking to hear what people are doing.
