HI I don''t understand what happen .. if I use the script/console : >> include ActionView::Helpers::DateHelper => Object >> include GLoc => Object >> time_ago_in_words(Time.now, include_seconds = false) => "moins d''une minute" I get the correct answer.. but I I write in my view <%= time_ago_in_words(Time.now, include_seconds = false)

Hi, I have MySQL model with created_on specified as :date. This means that the day the record was created on is stored in the database as a string like "2006-04-28". I want to be able output a something like "5 days ago". From looking in the API I''ve found "strftime" and "*distance_of_time_in_words*". Distance_of_time_in_words only accepts Time

Hi, Is it possible to test helper/view methods from script/console. I want to test the output of methods like distance_of_time_in_words. But it won''t let me from the console. What am I missing?

Hi, My helper specs were going ok until I added a call to a rails DateHelper method in one of my helpers http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionView/Helpers/ DateHelper.html#M000574 The helper runs fine from my view templates, just dies in the spec test. I boiled my question down to a simple (not too useful) example. I''m not sure what I''m missing. #

I''ve found an issue when trying to use the time_ago_in_words and distance_of_time_in_words from action view''s date_helper.rb Using SQL Server, I have a datetime column that gets returned as: "2007/02/21 09:54:00". When I pass this to time_ago_in_words (which just passes on to distance_of_time_in_words) it miscalculates the difference as "9 hours" (...um yeah,

First off Windows, because actually what I appear to be getting is a Rails error which only occurs when I use Mongrel, using Webrick I do not get this error. I start Mongrel using: mongrel_rails start I have mongrel, win32-services and mongrel-service gems installed even through Im not using mongrel as a service at the moment. The whole application works apart from one action. The error I get

Dear List, a second, more general, question concerning S4 classes. I have a bunch of functions/methods for my class. At the moment I have them as methods, because they work on objects of my S4 class and therefore "belong" to that class. On the other hand, it is comparably unlikely that someone else wants the same kind of method. And package.skeleton () produces the

In rails 3 there is distance_of_time_in_words which works fine, but I would like to tweak its output a bit. The thing is that if the dates are exactly the same it will say "Less Than a Minute" I would like it to show "Today" instead. Is that possible?

-------- --Multipart_Thu_Apr__8_13:33:51_1999-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Hello guys, I always wondered why smbclient keeps timestamp in `put'ting a file but does not keep it in `get'ting a file. Alternative to keep the time stamp in `get'ting file is to use -Tc option or smbtar script, but they are a bit hairy for interactive use, and it can only dump files with an

I''d like to have a count down to a certain date, but display it in words, such as "123 days away" or something. I''m aware of the function "distance_of_time_in_words_to_now()", which will display "about 6 hours" or "12 days" or something like that, but how can I get it to reverse? Pass it a date for future reference, then it will error

A couple of questions please: What is the benefit of having more than one Mongrel/Rails instance on the same machine, could one instance not serve as many requests as say three instances? Is Mongrel Cluster a Apache add-in (like mod_*) or a separately running load balancer which runs on a separate port, I could not work it out from the sample Apache config... |# Redirect all non-static

Hi I was interested to see how Mongrel uses Lex/Yacc to parse the HTTP requests using a Regal generated parser. I downloaded the source but do not see the lex and yacc files...

I installed a new Ubuntu 20.4 LTS system (smbd 4.11.6) . Initially I tried using the SSSD and 'realm' to join the domain. Everything worked similar to my Centos 7 install and I thought I was finished. The one thing not working is? cifs shares showing the proper id mapping. Based on some online posts, including from Rowland, I got rid of SSSD and configured samba/winbind only. Lots of

Initially, I found a problem in finding an appropriate plugin for paperclip

Please note this message is not related to my previous one from yesterday, this is on a different server (textdrive server).
