Question

I am trying to list dates of the month vertically, so far my table looks as followed:

I have today’s date however I need to list 18 days from today vertically. As well as generate the cells against these dates. From my index.html.erb I understand that I have the following @dates variable isn’t being set properly in my controller.

@dates variable isn’t being set properly, if you add the statement
<%= debug @dates %> to your view you can inspect what it’s being

Controller: Gist – Controller.rb

Index: Gist – Index.html.erb

Model: Gist – Model.rb

I understand that I will need to change my controller’s index action so it is able to list 18 days from today. I was thinking of doing something somewhat similar.. – Time.now+18.days However I am not sure if something like this would solve my problems? As I’m not fully sure how to implement this into my controller. What is the best possible solution?

Answer 1

t1 = Date.today
t2 = Date.today.end_of_month
@dates = (t1..t2).to_a 
# (t1..t2) is a Range object - .to_a call will change it to an array object with values in the range as elements
