Active Model Time Type

Attribute type for time of day representation. It is registered under the :time key.

“‘ class Event

include ActiveModel::Attributes

attribute :start, :time

end “‘

String values are parsed using the ISO 8601 datetime format, but are normalized to have a date of 2000-01-01 and be in the UTC time zone.

“‘ event = Event.new event.start = “2004-10-25T01:23:45-06:00”

event.start.class # => Time event.start # => 2000-01-01 07:23:45 UTC “‘

Partial time-only formats are also accepted.

“‘ event.start = “00:01:02+03:00” event.start # => 1999-12-31 21:01:02 UTC “`

The degree of sub-second precision can be customized when declaring an attribute:

“‘ class Event

include ActiveModel::Attributes

attribute :start, :time, precision: 4

end “‘
