search for: start_date

I have a model with a datetime field called start_date. I''d like to do a find on the model so that it returns only records with the start_date equal to the current day. Something like this: @foos = Foo.find(:all, :conditions => //?? start_date equal to today''s date ??// ] ) Thanks in advance for any h...

Hi all, Solaris 10 Ruby 1.8.4 Rails 1.0.0 Postgres 8.1 postgres driver 0.7.1 I''m having a problem with getting paginate() to properly pick up an FK constraint properly. I don''t seem to have this issue with ActiveRecord, however. Consider: create table start_dates ( id bigserial, start_date date unique, max_slots int default 40, primary key (id) ); create table schedules ( id bigserial, start_date_id int, ... foreign key (start_date_id) references start_dates (id), primary key (id) ); class StartDate < A...

Hello It seems that datetime_select, is creating an instance of the Time class. Why would that be? I found this while building a site where people can create vigils (prayer vigils, peace vigils, etc). When I added a validation method that compared start_date to created_at, it generated the error: ArgumentError (comparison of Time with DateTime failed): I was able to put a breakpoint in the create action of my vigil controller and found that @vigil.start_date.class returns Time type. I''m running Rails 1.2.3 on Ruby version 1.84.20 on a W...

...allows for the entry of year, month and date information. If I just leave it at that, great! But what if now in the controller, I want to work with the date information. I actually want to take the user input date and compute a new date some number of days in the future. How should I use "start_date(1i), start_date(2i), start_date(3i)" in a controller to fill in a new SQL date column? Does there exist helpers to convert from "start_date(1i), start_date(2i), start_date(3i)" to a Ruby Class like Date or Time? Page 203 of "Agile Web Development with Rails" implies that...

Hi, I''m trying to submit data from text boxes on a form to one variable in my controller, in the same way that datetime_select has date(1i), date(2i), etc for day, month, year, etc... I''ve named my variables event[start_date(1i)] event[start_date(2i)] and event[start_date(3i)] but this doesn''t seem to work and event[:start_date] is blank ... any pointers would be useful! Can''t seem to find any docs for this! Cheers, Mark -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

...of ActiveRecord. I have an events table with quite a lot of data, with has_many relations to categories, age_groups, and event_images. In my first naive implementation, each event had a date, so to load all upcoming events efficiently, I''d do: Event.find(:all, :conditions=>[''start_date >= ?'', Date.today], :includes=[:categories, :age_groups, :event_images]) This works well, and returns all data in one query which is good, but is perhaps inefficient in that the amount of data in the events table dwarfs that in the categories, age_groups, and event_images tables. It wo...

...B, the prices. Thus, for example, the file looks something like this -> 1/31/04 2.5 2/1/04 2.6 ... 4/12/04 3.5 Basically, I use the function inputframe = read.csv( ) which reads the csv file into the inputframe. My question is, how can I make a function that has, as inputs, start_date and end_date, so that the inputframe would not return all of these prices but only the ones during the period I input? For example, if I input 3/1/04 and 3/11/04, the inputframe only contains the prices for this period. Any help is appreciated!! Kim
