Instance Method Details

#as_json

Methods as_json and .json_create may be used to serialize and deserialize a Date object; see Marshal.

Method as_json serializes self, returning a 2-element hash representing self:

require 'json/add/date'
x = Date.today.as_json
# => {"json_class"=>"Date", "y"=>2023, "m"=>11, "d"=>21, "sg"=>2299161.0}

Method JSON.create deserializes such a hash, returning a Date object:

Date.json_create(x)
# => #<Date: 2023-11-21 ((2460270j,0s,0n),+0s,2299161j)>

def as_json(*)
  {
    JSON.create_id => self.class.name,
    'y' => year,
    'm' => month,
    'd' => day,
    'sg' => start,
  }
end

alias start sg unless method_defined?(:start)

#to_json(*args)

Returns a ::JSON string representing self:

require 'json/add/date'
