I have the following in my environments.rb file: my_formats = { :msc => ''%d %b %Y %I:%M %p'', :msc_short => ''%d %b %Y'' } ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::Time::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.merge! (my_formats) ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::Date::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.merge! (my_formats) With this, things like ''invite.created_at.to_s(:msc_short)'' work perfectly in all my views during normal operation. However, any functional test that includes a view template...

I''ve spent all day digging through the rails api and postgres-pr on this, I think it''s time to ask the list. Postgres stores a Date in YYYY-MM-DD format. My users want the dates in MM/DD/YYYY format. Sure, I could explicitly convert it on the app level every place where a date is displayed, but that seemed like a DRY violation. I thought I''d be clever and simply

In a model I have following validates_format_of. Is there an easy way to DRY this up? It seems to be rather repetitive. validates_format_of :expiration_date, :with => /^[0-9]{4}[-][0-9]{2}[-][0-9]{2}$/ validates_format_of :activation_date, :with => /^[0-9]{4}[-][0-9]{2}[-][0-9]{2}$/ validates_format_of :some_other_date, :with =>

...nter the date in iso format, so i have to make my applications in such a way that not only dates are displayed in the "dd-mm-yyy" format but also can be entered in that way. somewhere i found this code to put in the environment script: ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::Time::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.update( :default => ''%d/%m/%Y @ %H:%M: %p'' ) ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::Date::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.update( :default => ''%d/%m/%Y'' ) this works great for displaying dates, the only problem is i can''t input a new date anymore: i tried...

...DefineYourOwnDateFormat.html It seems pretty straightforward but obviously it doesn''t work for me... article.date_edited.to_formatted_s(:my_format_1) produce a default formatted date, not the one I''ve defined in environment.rb : ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::Date::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.merge!( :my_format_1 => ''%d/%m/%Y - %H:%M'', :my_format_2 => ''%l:%M %p, %B %d, %Y'' ) What''s wrong ?

I am using http://code.google.com/p/calendardateselect/ for my date time picker.

My application is built on Rails and MySQL. It will only be accepting US formatted dates as input, however both Rails and MySQL are oriented around ISO the format. I know I can convert a good portion of the entries using ParseDate::parsedate but it does not appear this is how the conversion is taking place when data is being transferred from the params hash into model members. Say I have a field

Hi, In my form I have date field set as ''datetime_select'' which is fine as I wanted it in the same format. But while displaying (list action) it displays date in long format i.e. ''Tue May 30 15:39:00 Central Daylight Time 2006''. How can I format it so that it will just be diaplyed as ''dd/mm/yyyy'' format? Thanks -- Posted via

I was recently having problems accessing attributes in an object. Can somebody explain to me why this is, and if it is a bug? I have the following code: @archives = RapturePost.find_by_sql "select distinct date_format(rapture_posts.date_created,''%Y-%m'') date_created from rapture_posts where rapture_posts.site_id = 1 order by rapture_posts.date_created desc" I wish to loop through the contents of the object with the following: for archive in archives #do something with the contents of a...

I use the following code in my view: <%= collection_select(''datedata'', ''date'', @allDate, :id, :date) %> It''s show me the date of all entries in the database (Dropdown menu). Additional, I wrote a helper method "showDate" in the application_helper.rb! How can I use this method in the collection_select for every date entry? thanks

I have a test/fixtures/users.yml like so: apa: id: 1 username: apa [...] created_at: <%=Time.now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")%> updated_at: <%=Time.now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")%> I don''t like how I''m repeating myself with the strftime bit. Is there some shorter Time method to format time for a (MySQL) datetime field that

Hi Shakeel, Assuming that you are starting with a bunch of dates: # make a vector of character strings that can be converted to dates rep_dates<-paste(sample(1:30,500,TRUE),sample(1:12,500,TRUE), sample(2013:2017,500,TRUE),sep="/") # if this isn't your format, change it date_format<-"%d/%m/%Y" # create a data frame with a column of dates rep_df<-data.frame(rep_dates=as.Date(rep_dates,format=date_format)) # add the week of the year rep_df$rep_week<-format(rep_df$rep_dates,"%V") # add the year rep_df$rep_year<-format(rep_df$rep_dates,"%Y&quo...

I''m seeing a behavior in Rails that I find very strange. Having worked quite a bit with Oracle with other languages I would always dutifully do ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = <my_date_format> and ensure I use that date format in my application. With Rails I still have not figured out how to execute an ALTER SESSION statement after connecting to the database (I''m using the the jdbc adapter). And sure enough I get a "date format not recognized"...

Hi, I am fairly new to 'R' and would like advice on the following. I want to calculate a weekly average number of reports (e.g. of flu, norovirus) based on the same weeks for the last five years. I will then use this to plot a chart with 52 points for the average based on the last five years; another line will then plot the current year, enabling a comparison of current weekly counts

I have a long list of posts posted on different days and many posts every day. I want them to arrange like following... Date1 ----- post1 post2 Date2 ----- post3 post4 post5 How can I (say) group them to appear all posts of one date under their related headng. Because records have so many different days, it is confusing me.. I need some generic solution. Thanks in advance. -- Posted via
