NthDay

A bite-size gem for finding the next occurrence of the *n*th *week*day of the month. For example, you can use it to find the next "2nd Monday" that will occur.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'nth_day'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install nth_day

Usage

Find the next occurrence of the nth day specified:

NthDay.next_occurrence("1st Tuesday")

You can also pass in a custom value for the date to start from if you don't want to find the next date from today:

NthDay.next_occurrence("1st Tuesday", Date.today - 1)

NthDay can handle abbreviated weekday names, and is case-insensitive. As long as your name has the first two characters of the name, NthDay will recognize it:

NthDay.next_occurrence("1st Tu")

Testing

NthDay uses RSpec for testing. To run the tests:

$ bundle exec rspec
