Hello all. I don''t suppose some enterprising soul with much more skill than me has whipped up a "validates_dateness_of" (Complete with leap year calculations) method for use with all the other validation methods and wishes to spread much much joy?

A quick note about acts_as_modified, acts_as_ordered and validates_date_time. If you are using any of those plugins you should update them. They''ve all had improvements/bug fixes. Also, acts_as_modified is now being maintained by both Chris Hall and myself. http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/acts_as_ordered http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/...

I am building a small app that reuires some clever text pattern matching...

Examples: 10/30/2006 7pm message 10-30-96 7:00 pm message 10/30/2006 19:00pm message ... You see what I''m getting at. For a v1.0 release, I CAN publish some standards for

Here is what I extracted from schema.rb > t.column "due_date", :date My fixture tasks.yml file has the following line > due_date: 07/17/2006 My test_task.rb has the following line > assert_equal "07/17/2006", @task.due_date When I run

I''ve tried Time.parse() and DateTime.parse() but they interpret the date as US format. Is there any way to tell it to interpret as dd/mm/yyyy? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, Does anyone know of a method to validate a DateTime field? I''ve looked at the validation docs and the validates_date / validates_time plug-in but I can''t find a method to validate a value in the format of yyyymmddhhmm. It seems like something that should exist already, so I''d just like to check before I attempt my own version... Cheers, Mark

hi, Below is an example of a text field I have, which works fine, until you enter an invalid date such as Feb 31st, which doesn''t exist Is there a way of checking this easily and returning an error message like validates_presence_of does ? <p><label for="project_client_deadline_date">Client Deadline Date:</label><br/> <%= date_select

Hey All, Anyone know of a library for parsing "human" dates, like "this friday" or "2 days ago"? I used to use strtotime in php, but starting from here; http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/PhpStrtotime and doing lots of googling, I haven''t been able to find anything similar for ruby. I know of javascript solutions to this, but I''d need to do

Can somebody tell me why the following RegExp doesn''t work for date validation in Rails... It validates fine in RadRails -- using REgExp panel. Intended format: (mm/dd/yyyy): %r{^(0[1-9]|1[012])(-|/)(0[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])(-|/)(19|20)([0-9][0-9])$} If i try the following, it works in Rails: %r{(0[1-9]|1[012])(-|/)(0[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])} When I add the last piece, it

This plugin gives ActiveRecord the ability to do stricter date checking. Example: class Person < ActiveRecord::Base validates_date :date_of_birth end This will ensure that date_of_birth is a *valid* date. The date can be set initially as a string in any of the following formats: "2006-01-01" "1 Jan 06", or "1 Jan 2006" "1/1/06" # Day /

I''m running Oracle and in my table i have a field: SCHEDULED_DATE of type DATE. When I do a query model = MyModel.find(1) model.scheduled_date_before_type_case ends up being equal to ''0007-09-19'' instead of ''2007-09-19''. In the oracle adapter I ran a debug accross all the fields and got, just after it does the query and gets the results. -

...Anyone have any suggestions for implementing something like Google Calendar and Backpack''s "Quick Add" feature. For example, parsing something like this: "Dinner with Michael 7pm tomorrow" into some kind of object with params ::date,::time,::event.

Ok, so to me this seems like a very trivial issue, but it is causing hours of frustration. I am hoping that an extra thousand or so sets of eyes will point out where I am obviously making a newbie mistake. I have the following string: "08-04-2006" representing August 4, 2006 I set my attribute ''po_date'' equal to this string and then save it to the database. My

I am using custom control for entering a date on the form. My date format is dd.mm.yyyy and this is also what the control returns to program. But ActiveRecord expects date to be formated as mm.dd.yyyy and thus saves wrong value to database. I have implemented method which corrects date fields prior to save to database, but it is clumsy. There must be a solution to configure ActiveRecord so it

Hello all, There''s a great patch in trac that fixes a lof of issues with the date helpers. I''m afraid it hasn''t had any attention yet. http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3811 This fixes all the little date_helper problems, except one: When you choose an invalid date ActiveRecord throws an ActiveRecord::MultiparameterAssignmentErrors. This used to work in 1.0,
