# Freeze Time.now, DateTime.now and Date.today to the given Time | |
# This method operates only in the context of a provided block. | |
# | |
# Example Usage: | |
# | |
# Time.be(:utc, 2007, 5, 2) do | |
# puts Time.now | |
# end | |
# # => 2007-05-02 00:00:00 UTC | |
# | |
# Time.be(:local, 2007, 5, 2, 17, 31, 2) do | |
# puts Time.now | |
# end | |
# # => 2007-05-02 17:31:02 +1000 | |
# | |
# It works with DateTime.now too: | |
# | |
# Time.be(Time.utc(2012, 1, 1)) do | |
# puts DateTime.now | |
# end | |
# # => 2012-01-01T00:00:00+00:00 | |
# | |
# And also with Date.today: | |
# | |
# Time.be(:utc, 2000, 2, 14) do | |
# puts Date.today | |
# end | |
# # => 2000-02-14 | |
# | |
# Blocks can be nested together: | |
# | |
# Time.be(:utc, 2007, 5, 2) do | |
# Time.be(:local, 2007, 5, 2, 17, 31, 2) do | |
# puts Time.now | |
# end | |
# puts Time.now | |
# end | |
# # => 2007-05-02 17:31:02 +1000 | |
# # => 2007-05-02 00:00:00 UTC | |
# | |
# And lastly, you can take advantage of ActiveSupport's Numeric helpers: | |
# | |
# Time.be(:utc, 2000, 1, 1) do | |
# Time.be(4.days.from_now.utc) do | |
# puts Time.now | |
# Time.be(3.minutes.ago.utc) do | |
# puts Time.now | |
# end | |
# end | |
# end | |
# # => 2000-01-05 00:00:00 UTC | |
# # => 2000-01-04 23:57:00 UTC | |
# | |

Comment no longer makes sense. Should have really used a new gist. Meh.
