Class Attribute Details
.beginning_of_week (rw)
Returns the week start (e.g. :monday
) for the current request, if this has been set (via .beginning_of_week=). If beginning_of_week
has not been set for the current request, returns the week start specified in config.beginning_of_week
. If no config.beginning_of_week
was specified, returns :monday
.

def beginning_of_week ::ActiveSupport::IsolatedExecutionState[:beginning_of_week] || beginning_of_week_default || :monday end
.beginning_of_week=(week_start) (rw)
Sets .beginning_of_week to a week start (e.g. :monday
) for current request/thread.
This method accepts any of the following day symbols: :monday
, :tuesday
, :wednesday
, :thursday
, :friday

#advance(options)
Provides precise Date
calculations for years, months, and days. The options
parameter takes a hash with any of these keys: :years
, :months
, :weeks
, :days
.
The increments are applied in order of time units from largest to smallest. In other words, the date is incremented first by :years
, then by :months
, then by :weeks
, then by :days
. This order can affect the result around the end of a month. For example, incrementing first by months then by days:
Date.new(2004, 9, 30).advance(months: 1, days: 1)
# => Sun, 31 Oct 2004
Whereas incrementing first by days then by months yields a different result:
Date.new(2004, 9, 30).advance(days: 1).advance(months: 1)
# => Mon, 01 Nov 2004
# File 'activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/date/calculations.rb', line 127

Adding your own date formats to to_fs
You can add your own formats to the DATE_FORMATS hash. Use the format name as the hash key and either a strftime string or Proc instance that takes a date argument as the value.
# config/initializers/date_formats.rb
Date::DATE_FORMATS[:month_and_year] = '%B %Y'
Date::DATE_FORMATS[:short_ordinal] = ->(date) { date.strftime("%B #{date.day.ordinalize}") }

#to_time(form = :local)
Converts a Date
instance to a ::Time
, where the time is set to the beginning of the day. The timezone can be either :local
or :utc
(default :local
).
date = Date.new(2007, 11, 10) # => Sat, 10 Nov 2007
date.to_time # => 2007-11-10 00:00:00 0800

date.to_time(:utc) # => 2007-11-10 00:00:00 UTC
NOTE: The :local
timezone is Ruby’s process timezone, i.e. ENV['TZ']
. If the application’s timezone is needed, then use in_time_zone
instead.
#xmlschema
Returns a string which represents the time in used time zone as ::Time
defined by XML Schema:
date = Date.new(2015, 05, 23) # => Sat, 23 May 2015
