Instance Method Summary

• #__numeric_old_method_missing ⇒ Object
• #method_missing(method, *args) ⇒ Object

  Intercept calls to .weeks, .days, .hours, .minutes and .seconds because Rails defines its own methods, so I’d like to prevent any redefining of Rails’ methods.

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(method, *args) ⇒ Object

Intercept calls to .weeks, .days, .hours, .minutes and .seconds because Rails defines its own methods, so I’d like to prevent any redefining of Rails’ methods.

Example

140.seconds => #<Duration: 2 minutes and 20 seconds>

# File 'lib/duration.rb', line 351

def method_missing(method, *args)
	if [:weeks, :days, :hours, :minutes, :seconds].include? method
		Duration.new(method => self)
	else
		__numeric_old_method_missing(method, *args)
	end
end
