Undefined method when trying to use custom helper methods

[scottrobertson]

Hey

I am using rabl (via rabl-rails), with Rails 4.2.7.1 (and rails-api). I have the following:

module PaginationHelper
  def pagination
    {}
  end
end

and I am calling pagination from within rabl, and I am getting the following.

undefined local variable or method 'pagination' for #
<Rabl::Engine:0x007fbdc8735c20>

I have tried adding helper :pagination to my ApplicationController.

I have also tried looking at other issues, but they all seem to be from years ago, and are marked as resolved.

Also tried adding the method directly to the controller using helper_method but that doesnt work either.
