Public Instance methods

after(time = ::Time.now)

Calculates time after a given time. Default time is now. Reads best with argument: 10.minutes.after(time)

ago(time = ::Time.now)

Alias for before

before(time = ::Time.now)

Calculates time before a given time. Default time is now. Reads best with arguments: 10.days.before( Time.now - 1.day )

bits_to_bytes()

Converts bits to bytes.

byte()

Alias for bytes

bytes()

Enables the use of byte calculations and declarations, like 45.bytes + 2.6.megabytes. The base unit for all of these Numeric bytes methods is bytes. (One might expect it to be bits, but that doesn’t seem to be the general consensus.)

day()

Alias for days

days()

Converts days into seconds.

fortnight()

Alias for fortnights

fortnights()

Converts fortnights into seconds. (A fortnight is 2 weeks)

from_now(time = ::Time.now)

Alias for after

gb()

Alias for gigabytes

gigabyte()

Alias for gigabytes

gigabytes()

Converts gigabytes to bytes.

hour()

Alias for hours

hours()

Converts hours into seconds.

kb()

Alias for kilobytes

kilobyte()

Alias for kilobytes

kilobytes()

Converts kilobytes to bytes.

later(time = ::Time.now)

Alias for after

mb()

Alias for megabytes

megabyte()

Alias for megabytes

megabytes()

Converts megabytes to bytes.

microsecond()

Alias for microseconds

microseconds()

Converts microseconds into a fraction of seconds.

millisecond()

Alias for milliseconds

milliseconds()

Converts milliseconds into a fraction of seconds.

minute()

Alias for minutes

minutes()

Converts months into seconds. WARNING: This is not exact as it assumes 30 days to a month.

second()

Alias for seconds

seconds()

since(time = ::Time.now)

Alias for after

tb()

Alias for terabytes

terabyte()

Alias for terabytes

terabytes()

Converts terabytes to bytes.

until(time = ::Time.now)

Alias for before

week()

Alias for weeks

weeks()
