Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'timestamp_as_boolean'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install timestamp_as_boolean
Usage
- Include
TimestampAsBoolean
in the model eg:
class SampleClass < ActiveRecord::Base
include TimestampAsBoolean
end
- Now, assuming your model has a field named
accepted_at
, addtimestamp_as_boolean :accepted
to create a pseudo boolean field that will set or unset the timestamp when the boolean field was first turned to true.
class SampleClass < ActiveRecord::Base
include TimestampAsBoolean
timestamp_as_boolean :accepted
end
accepted
can now be used like any other ruby boolean attribute.
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
