Instance Method Details

#advance(options) ⇒ Object

Uses Date to provide precise Time calculations for years, months, and days. The options parameter takes a hash with any of these keys: :years, :months, :weeks, :days, :hours, :minutes, :seconds.

def advance(options)
  d = to_date.advance(options)
  datetime_advanced_by_date = change(:year => d.year, :month => d.month, :day => d.day)
  seconds_to_advance = (options[:seconds] || 0) + (options[:minutes] || 0) * 60 + (options[:hours] || 0) * 3600
  seconds_to_advance == 0 ? datetime_advanced_by_date : datetime_advanced_by_date.since(seconds_to_advance)
end

#ago(seconds) ⇒ Object

Returns a new DateTime representing the time a number of seconds ago Do not use this method in combination with x.months, use months_ago instead!

# File 'lib/active_support/core_ext/date_time/calculations.rb', line 72

def ago(seconds)
  self.since(-seconds)
end

#beginning_of_day ⇒ Object Also known as: midnight, at_midnight, at_beginning_of_day

Returns a new DateTime representing the start of the day (0:00)

86
 
# File 'lib/active_support/core_ext/date_time/calculations.rb', line 84

def beginning_of_day
  change(:hour => 0)
end

#change(options) ⇒ Object

Returns a new DateTime where one or more of the elements have been changed according to the options parameter. The time options (hour, minute, sec) reset cascadingly, so if only the hour is passed, then minute and sec is set to 0. If the hour and minute is passed, then sec is set to 0.

end

#compare_with_coercion(other) ⇒ Object

Layers additional behavior on DateTime#<=> so that Time and ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instances can be compared with a DateTime

  other = other.comparable_time if other.respond_to?(:comparable_time)
  other = other.to_datetime unless other.acts_like?(:date)
  compare_without_coercion(other)
end

#end_of_day ⇒ Object

Returns a new DateTime representing the end of the day (23:59:59)

end

#future? ⇒ Boolean

#since(seconds) ⇒ Object Also known as: in

Returns a new DateTime representing the time a number of seconds since the instance time Do not use this method in combination with x.months, use months_since instead!

def since(seconds)
  self + Rational(seconds.round, 86400)
end

#utc ⇒ Object Also known as: getutc

Adjusts DateTime to UTC by adding its offset value; offset is set to 0

Example:

DateTime.civil(2005, 2, 21, 10, 11, 12, Rational(-6, 24))       # => Mon, 21 Feb 2005 10:11:12 -0600
DateTime.civil(2005, 2, 21, 10, 11, 12, Rational(-6, 24)).utc   # => Mon, 21 Feb 2005 16:11:12 +0000

end

Returns:
