Overview

Active Model Date Type

::ActiveModel::Attribute type for date representation. It is registered under the :date key.

class Person
  include ActiveModel::Attributes

  attribute :birthday, :date
end

person = Person.new
person.birthday = "1989-07-13"

person.birthday.class # => Date
person.birthday.year  # => 1989
person.birthday.month # => 7
person.birthday.day   # => 13

String values are parsed using the ISO 8601 date format. Any other values are cast using their to_date method, if it exists.

Class Method Summary

Value - Inherited

.new

Initializes a type with three basic configuration settings: precision, limit, and scale.

Value - Inherited

#limit, #precision, #scale,
#binary?

These predicates are not documented, as I need to look further into their use, and see if they can be removed entirely.

Value - Inherited

#==, #as_json, #assert_valid_value,
#cast

::ActiveModel::Type casts a value from user input (e.g. from a setter).

#changed?

Determines whether a value has changed for dirty checking.

#changed_in_place?

Determines whether the mutable value has been modified since it was read.

#deserialize

Converts a value from database input to the appropriate ruby type.

#eql?

Alias for Value#==.

#hash,
#serializable?

Returns true if this type can convert value to a type that is usable by the database.

#serialize

Casts a value from the ruby type to a type that the database knows how to understand.

#type

Returns the unique type name as a ::Symbol.

#cast_value

Convenience method for types which do not need separate type casting behavior for user and database inputs.

#force_equality?, #map,
#type_cast_for_schema

::ActiveModel::Type casts a value for schema dumping.

#value_constructed_by_mass_assignment?

SerializeCastValue - Included

Constructor Details

This class inherits a constructor from ActiveModel::Type::Value
