similar to: Rails Date/Time Validation and Parsing

I really liked the tool but I have got stuck in one case. I am in urgent need of your help regarding validates_date :sale_start, :before => :sale_end, :after => Proc.new { -1.day.from_now.to_date } validates_date :sale_end, :after => [:sale_start , Proc.new { -1.day.from_now.to_date }], This is Okay but there may be the

Does anyone know if a Ruby package has been written to handle functionality similar to php''s strtotime(). I''m looking for something that can parse almost any string (such as "1 day ago", "+1 week", "last tuesday") into a timestamp. I''ve played with ParseDate, but it doesn''t seem to do what I need. Any suggestions? Derek

I have an application that requires users to be in a specific age group, or above a certain age. For simplicity sake lets say they have to be at least 18. This is my most recent attempt to produce the desired result: validates_exclusion_of :birthday, :in => Range.new(Date.today, Date.parse( (18.years.ago).strftime(''%Y/%m/%d'') )), :message => "does not meet

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

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

Because Microsoft Word changes quotes to curly quotes, double dashes to en-dashes, etc., copied / pasted text from Word into a textarea can contain characters not rendered the same in all browsers. Put more bluntly, when they paste from Word, it looks like cr@p on my Mac. I¹ve seen this question asked before, but never seen the answer. Is there any translation table between Word¹s special

I have multiple projects and it''s important for me to track time by client and by project. There''s a Windows application that allows me to do this, but I''m looking for a cross-platform solution. I looked at ConsultComm but it wouldn''t install on my Mac. Rather than rewriting what seems like a commonly-required app, I wondered if anyone else had something they

Hi Here is another patch regarding time in ogg123 which is more controvercial than the other one I send some days ago. (see attachment) When working with Daisy/SMIL [1] files it would be helpfull if the user could stop play at a specific time. Currently .ogg files are not allowed in the Daisy format but that will hopefully happen one day if I work hard at it. A clip in a Daisy file could look

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 wanted a simple function for bilinear interpolation on a 2-D grid, and interp.surface() in the fields package didn't quite suit my needs. In particular, it requires uniform spacing between grid points. It also didn't have the "visual" reference frame I was looking for. Here is an alternative function, followed by an example. # A function for bilinear interpolation on a 2-d

Hello-- There must be a better way to do this. I have a class method in my model that finds averages and does a few calculations using find_by_sql. The problem I¹m encountering is that all computed columns from MySQL come back as type string. E.g., def self.find_averages(domain_id) if @@domain_average return @@domain_average else @@domain_average =

Good afternoon I would like to ask if is possible somehow give more relevance to the recent documents in search results. I dont want to sort results according to the date, I still prefer relevance, but I would like to see recent documents with better scoring. I was trying to add search query using AND_MAYBE, which should use relevance from both subqueries, but it didnt add any benefit to the
