janko / as-duration Goto Github PK

I was looking into optionally using AS::Duration instead of ActiveSupport::Duration for Sequel's pg_interval extension, but I found the constructors for the two classes are different, so it is not possible to simply swap ActiveSupport::Duration for AS::Duration. This difference isn't mentioned in the README, and it probably should be, since the README gives the impression that the 'AS::Duration` is compatible except in cases listed explicitly.

Alternatively, you may want to support ActiveSupport::Duration's constructor API. That would increase compatibility.

When using with irb I get this message:

2.1.5 :001 > require 'as-duration'
 => true 
2.1.5 :002 > 1.hour.ago
NoMethodError: undefined method `to_date' for 2015-04-27 16:04:20 +0200:Time

I know that requiring 'time' fixes that, but I think this should be required by the gem itself.
