Today I learned about Rails' Time.days_in_month and Time.days_in_year. So handy!
Time.days_in_month(2) # defaults to current year # => 28 Time.days_in_month(2, 2024) # => 29 Time.days_in_year # defaults to current year # => 365 Time.days_in_year(2024) # => 366

Did you know that Rails 7.1 stops receiving security updates in 3 weeks? Wished that you had a tool that would inform you about this kind of stuff?

Well, end_of_life v0.5 was just released and it now supports Rails!

Check it out: github.com/MatheusRich/...

I forgot to share, but about a month ago I got my first commit into Crystal! You can use this if you're on Crystal >= 1.17
# Ensuring string suffix and prefix New convenience methods String#ensure_suffix and String#ensure_prefix for adding a specific prefix or suffix but only if not already there (#157822): ``` "foo" .ensure_suffix("/") # => "foo/" "foo/" .ensure_suffix("/") # => "foo/" "Foo" .ensure_prefix("::") # => "::Foo" "::Foo".ensure_prefix("::") # => "::Foo" ```

Hey, I'm on This Week in Rails

# Add relative time in words helper to ActionView This pull request introduces a relative_time_in_words helper: ``` relative_time_in_words(3.minutes.from_now) # => "in 3 minutes" relative_time_in_words(3.minutes.ago) # => "3 minutes ago" relative_time_in_words(10.seconds.ago, include_seconds: true) # => "less than 10 seconds ago" ```

If you're building a PWA with Rails don't forget to ensure that you're rendering valid JSON on routes like /manifest.json.

I've added a test for that:
require "test_helper" require "json" class ManifestJsonTest < ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest test "GET /manifest returns valid JSON" do get "/manifest.json" assert_response :success assert_nothing_raised do JSON.parse(@response.body) end end end
