Overriding case equality method so that it returns true for ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone
instances
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 18 def ===(other) super || (self == Time && other.is_a?(ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone)) end
Layers additional behavior on Time.at
so that ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone
and DateTime
instances can be used when called with a single argument
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 45 def at_with_coercion(time_or_number, *args) if args.empty? if time_or_number.is_a?(ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone) at_without_coercion(time_or_number.to_r).getlocal elsif time_or_number.is_a?(DateTime) at_without_coercion(time_or_number.to_f).getlocal else at_without_coercion(time_or_number) end else at_without_coercion(time_or_number, *args) end end
Returns Time.zone.now
when Time.zone
or config.time_zone
are set, otherwise just returns Time.now
.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 39 def current ::Time.zone ? ::Time.zone.now : ::Time.now end
Returns the number of days in the given month. If no year is specified, it will use the current year.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 24 def days_in_month(month, year = current.year) if month == 2 && ::Date.gregorian_leap?(year) 29 else COMMON_YEAR_DAYS_IN_MONTH[month] end end
Returns the number of days in the given year. If no year is specified, it will use the current year.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 34 def days_in_year(year = current.year) days_in_month(2, year) + 337 end
Returns a TimeZone instance matching the time zone provided. Accepts the time zone in any format supported by Time.zone=
. Returns nil
for invalid time zones.
Time.find_zone "America/New_York" # => #<ActiveSupport::TimeZone @name="America/New_York" ...> Time.find_zone "NOT-A-TIMEZONE" # => nil
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/zones.rb, line 93 def find_zone(time_zone) find_zone!(time_zone) rescue nil end
Returns a TimeZone instance matching the time zone provided. Accepts the time zone in any format supported by Time.zone=
. Raises an ArgumentError
for invalid time zones.
Time.find_zone! "America/New_York" # => #<ActiveSupport::TimeZone @name="America/New_York" ...> Time.find_zone! "EST" # => #<ActiveSupport::TimeZone @name="EST" ...> Time.find_zone! -5.hours # => #<ActiveSupport::TimeZone @name="Bogota" ...> Time.find_zone! nil # => nil Time.find_zone! false # => false Time.find_zone!

Creates a Time
instance from an RFC 3339 string.
Time.rfc3339('1999-12-31T14:00:00-10:00') # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 -1000
If the time or offset components are missing then an ArgumentError
will be raised.
Time.rfc3339('1999-12-31') # => ArgumentError: invalid date
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 69 def rfc3339(str) parts = Date._rfc3339(str) raise ArgumentError, "invalid date" if parts.empty? Time.new( parts.fetch(:year), parts.fetch(:mon), parts.fetch(:mday), parts.fetch(:hour), parts.fetch(:min), parts.fetch(:sec) + parts.fetch(:sec_fraction, 0), parts.fetch(:offset) ) end
Allows override of Time.zone
locally inside supplied block; resets Time.zone
to existing value when done.
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base around_action :set_time_zone private def set_time_zone Time.use_zone(current_user.timezone) { yield } end end
NOTE: This won’t affect any ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone
objects that have already been created, e.g. any model timestamp attributes that have been read before the block will remain in the application’s default timezone.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/zones.rb, line 61 def use_zone(time_zone) new_zone = find_zone!(time_zone) begin old_zone, ::Time.zone = ::Time.zone, new_zone yield ensure ::Time.zone = old_zone end end
Returns the TimeZone for the current request, if this has been set (via Time.zone=
). If Time.zone
has not been set for the current request, returns the TimeZone specified in config.time_zone
.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/zones.rb, line 14 def zone ::ActiveSupport::IsolatedExecutionState[:time_zone] || zone_default end
Sets Time.zone
to a TimeZone object for the current request/thread.
This method accepts any of the following:
-
A Rails TimeZone object.
-
An identifier for a Rails TimeZone object (e.g., “Eastern Time (US & Canada)”,
-5.hours
). -
A
TZInfo::Timezone
object. -
An identifier for a
TZInfo::Timezone
object (e.g., “America/New_York”).
Here’s an example of how you might set Time.zone
on a per request basis and reset it when the request is done. current_user.time_zone
just needs to return a string identifying the user’s preferred time zone:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base around_action :set_time_zone def set_time_zone if logged_in? Time.use_zone(current_user.time_zone) { yield } else yield end end end
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/zones.rb, line 41 def zone=(time_zone) ::ActiveSupport::IsolatedExecutionState[:time_zone] = find_zone!(time_zone) end

Duck-types as a Time-like class. See Object#acts_like?
.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/acts_like.rb, line 7 def acts_like_time? true end
Uses Date
to provide precise Time
calculations for years, months, and days according to the proleptic Gregorian calendar. The options
parameter takes a hash with any of these keys: :years
, :months
, :weeks
, :days
, :hours
, :minutes
, :seconds
.
Time.new(2015, 8, 1, 14, 35, 0).advance(seconds: 1) # => 2015-08-01 14:35:01 -0700 Time.new(2015, 8, 1, 14, 35, 0).advance(minutes: 1) # => 2015-08-01 14:36:00 -0700 Time.new(2015, 8, 1, 14, 35, 0).advance(hours: 1) # => 2015-08-01 15:35:00 -0700 Time.new(2015, 8, 1, 14, 35, 0).advance(days: 1) # => 2015-08-02 14:35:00 -0700 Time.new(2015, 8, 1, 14, 35, 0).advance(weeks: 1) # => 2015-08-08 14:35:00 -0700
Just like Date#advance
, increments are applied in order of time units from largest to smallest. This order can affect the result around the end of a month.

Returns a new Time
representing the start of the day (0:00)
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 226 def beginning_of_day change(hour: 0) end
Returns a new Time
representing the start of the hour (x:00)
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 255 def beginning_of_hour change(min: 0) end
Returns a new Time
representing the start of the minute (x:xx:00)
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 271 def beginning_of_minute change(sec: 0) end
Returns a new Time
where one or more of the elements have been changed according to the options
parameter. The time options (:hour
, :min
, :sec
, :usec
, :nsec
) reset cascadingly, so if only the hour is passed, then minute, sec, usec, and nsec is set to 0. If the hour and minute is passed, then sec, usec, and nsec is set to 0. The options
parameter takes a hash with any of these keys: :year
, :month
, :day
, :hour
, :min
, :sec
, :usec
, :nsec
, :offset
. Pass either :usec
or :nsec
, not both.

So we add the offset # difference to fast-forward the new time, and check if the result has the # desired UTC offset (i.e. is the second chronological occurrence). offset_difference = new_time.utc_offset - utc_offset if offset_difference > 0 && (new_time_2 = new_time + offset_difference).utc_offset == utc_offset new_time_2 else new_time end elsif zone ::Time.local(new_sec, new_min, new_hour, new_day, new_month, new_year, nil, nil, isdst, nil) else ::Time.new(new_year, new_month, new_day, new_hour, new_min, new_sec, utc_offset) end end
Layers additional behavior on Time#<=>
so that DateTime
and ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone
instances can be chronologically compared with a Time
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 317 def compare_with_coercion(other) # we're avoiding Time#to_datetime and Time#to_time because they're expensive if other.class == Time compare_without_coercion(other) elsif other.is_a?(Time) # also avoid ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone#to_time before Rails 8.0 if other.respond_to?(:comparable_time) compare_without_coercion(other.comparable_time) else compare_without_coercion(other.to_time) end else to_datetime <=> other end end
Returns a new Time
representing the end of the day, 23:59:59.999999
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 244 def end_of_day change( hour: 23, min: 59, sec: 59, usec: Rational(999999999, 1000) ) end

Layers additional behavior on Time#eql?
so that ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone
instances can be eql? to an equivalent Time
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 337 def eql_with_coercion(other) # if other is an ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone, coerce a Time instance from it so we can do eql? comparison other = other.comparable_time if other.respond_to?(:comparable_time) eql_without_coercion(other) end
Returns a formatted string of the offset from UTC, or an alternative string if the time zone is already UTC.
Time.local(2000).formatted_offset # => "-06:00" Time.local(2000).formatted_offset(false) # => "-0600"
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/conversions.rb, line 67 def formatted_offset(colon = true, alternate_utc_string = nil) utc? && alternate_utc_string || ActiveSupport::TimeZone.seconds_to_utc_offset(utc_offset, colon) end
Returns a new Time
representing the middle of the day (12:00)
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 234 def middle_of_day change(hour: 12) end
Time#-
can also be used to determine the number of seconds between two Time
instances. We’re layering on additional behavior so that ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone
instances are coerced into values that Time#-
will recognize
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 308 def minus_with_coercion(other) other = other.comparable_time if other.respond_to?(:comparable_time) other.is_a?(DateTime) ? to_f - other.to_f : minus_without_coercion(other) end
Returns a new time the specified number of days in the future.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 351 def next_day(days = 1) advance(days: days) end
Returns a new time the specified number of months in the future.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 361 def next_month(months = 1) advance(months: months) end
Returns a new time the specified number of years in the future.

Returns a new time the specified number of years ago.
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 366 def prev_year(years = 1) advance(years: -years) end
Returns the fraction of a second as a Rational
Time.new(2012, 8, 29, 0, 0, 0.5).sec_fraction # => (1/2)
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 107 def sec_fraction subsec end

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 100 def seconds_until_end_of_day end_of_day.to_i - to_i end
Returns a new Time
representing the time a number of seconds since the instance time
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/calculations.rb, line 218 def since(seconds) self + seconds rescue to_datetime.since(seconds) end
Converts to a formatted string. See DATE_FORMATS
for built-in formats.
This method is aliased to to_formatted_s
.

Adding your own time formats to to_fs
¶ ↑
You can add your own formats to the Time::DATE_FORMATS
hash. Use the format name as the hash key and either a strftime string or Proc instance that takes a time argument as the value.
# config/initializers/time_formats.rb Time::DATE_FORMATS[:month_and_year] = '%B %Y' Time::DATE_FORMATS[:short_ordinal] = ->(time) { time.strftime("%B #{time.day.ordinalize}") }
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/time/conversions.rb, line 53 def to_fs(format = :default) if formatter = DATE_FORMATS[format] formatter.respond_to?(:call) ? formatter.call(self).to_s : strftime(formatter) else to_s end end
Either return self
or the time in the local system timezone depending on the setting of ActiveSupport.to_time_preserves_timezone
.
