HI Folks,
How to find current month?
and
How to collect current month data from our database?
Please advice.
Thank You.
I'm not trying to be a dick, but these are fundamental tasks that you should have learned first.
[1] pry(main)> Time.new.strftime("%B") #=> "January" [2] pry(main)> Time.new.strftime("%b") #=> "Jan" [3] pry(main)> Time.new.month #=> 1
As for the latter, that's a hard question to ask, because I would not query by date the Rails way, I would opt to use PG functions to format the date and query that way so without knowing a database I cannot help there but it's not hard to use where("created_at >= ?", 5.days.ago) though I don't even know if that's a good way to do it in Rails because again I would never do date queries directly in Rails.
