Currently,
Rails/FilePath
recommends usingRails.root.join('app', 'models', 'goober').to_s
, but would.to_path
be more appropriate?When we use
.to_s
, we expect to get its class name and address.Example:
Similarly, I'm worried that
Rails.root.join('app', 'models', 'goober').to_s
might return that.On the other hand,
.to_path
does not have this fear. It's an alias toto_s
