Scoping date attribute for this week?

Question

I am trying to scope all of my Products for this week, so it should show all the products leading up to whichever day of the week.

class Product < ActiveR         


        

Answer 1

at_beginning_of_week has been removed in Rails 3. You should use beginning_of_week but, be careful, it's an instance method. So you have to do something like:

Date.today.beginning_of_week

Furthermore, you can use a range and make your query very nice to read:

where(:purchase_date => Date.today.beginning_of_week..Date.today.end_of_week)
