Rails ActiveRecord::Base missing find_all_by_date_range

Posted on Friday, February 6, 2009 in Just for fun, Ruby on Rails, Software, Web Design Tools, Web Tools, Work

Hello everyone,
A current project I am working on required finding records within a certain date range. Many other projects I have worked on also required something similar. So, I decided to create a Rails gem to handle this. The gem is available on GitHub. http://github.com/timmatheson/find-all-by-date-range/tree/master

Install

Usage:

I hope this helps anyone else needing this feature of ActiveRecord::Base.

Best regards,

Tim Matheson
