ActsAsWorkingDays¶ ↑

acts_as_working_days is a Rails plugin to add working days to your models

# app/models/company.rb
class Company < ActiveRecord::Base
  acts_as_working_days
end

kwik_e_mart = Company.new(:name => 'Kwik-E-Mart')

# Verifies if kwik_e_mart is opened now (Time.now)
kwik_e_mart.working_day? 

# Verifies if kwik_e_mart is opened on Sundays
kwik_e_mart.working_day?(:week_day => 0)

# Verifies if kwik_e_mart is opened on Mondays 21h30
kwik_e_mart.working_day?(:week_day => 1, :hour => 21, :min => 30)

week_day is an integer representing the day of the week, 0..6, with Sunday == 0. (See www.ruby-doc.org/core-2.1.1/Time.html#method-i-wday)

kwik_e_mart = Company.new(:name => 'Kwik-E-Mart')

# Set kwik_e_mart is opened on Mondays from 8h30 to 18h45
kwik_e_mart.working_days.build(:week_day => 1, :start_hour => 8, :start_min => 30, :end_hour => 18, :end_min => 45)

# Set kwik_e_mart is opened on Saturdays from 10h00 to 16h00
kwik_e_mart.working_days.build(:week_day => 6, :start_hour => 10, :start_min => 0, :end_hour => 16, :end_min => 0)

# retuns true
kwik_e_mart.working_day?(:week_day => 1)

# returns true
kwik_e_mart.working_day?(:week_day => 1, :hour => 18)

# return true
kwik_e_mart.working_day?(:week_day => 1, :hour => 12, :min => 30)

# return false
