I am adding a function to check for 2 digit dates and change them into 4 digit before a Date.new has time to choke on it. My model is :
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :household
def before_validation # debugger self.month_int = self.month.to_i self.day_int = self.day.to_i self.year_int = self.year.to_i if (year_int > 0) && (month_int > 0) && (month_int < 13) && (day_int > 0)&& (day_int < 32) if (self.year_int < 100) @compare = Date.new(2000+self.year_int,self.month_int, self.day_int) if (@compare > Date.today) self.year_int = 1900+self.year_int else self.year_int = 2000+self.year_int end self.year = self.year_int.to_s end self.birthday = Date.new(self.year_int, self.month_int, self.day_int) else errors.add("Date") end debugger end
validates_inclusion_of :month_int, :in => 1..12, :message => "should be between 1 and 12" validates_inclusion_of :day_int, :in => 1..31, :message => "should be between 1 and 31" validates_numericality_of :year_int validates_inclusion_of :sex, :in => %w{ M F }, :message => "should be 'M' or 'm' or 'F' or 'f'" validates_presence_of :sex, :month, :day, :year validates_date :birthday, :before => Date.today+1, :after => 'Jan 1 1900', :before_message => 'Needs to be today or before.', :after_message => 'Needs to be after 1/1/1900.'
end
since I added the code that changes a model variable, I get 2 breakpoints from the 2 changes. This is not needed by my app and causes a breakpoint that my user won't know how to bypass. Please help with removing this issue. I assume rails is error-checking my code and having a fit about not telling the views that a field has changed..
