Class: Remi::Transform::ParseDate

Inherits:
Remi::Transform show all
Defined in:
lib/remi/transform.rb

Overview

Public: Parses a string and converts it to a date. This transform is metadata aware and will use :in_format metadata from the source

in_format - The date format to use to convert the string (default: uses :in_format

from the source metadata.  If that is not defined, use '%Y-%m-%d').

if_blank - Value to use if the the incoming value is blank (default: uses :if_blank

from the source metadata.  If that is not defined, use nil).  If set to
:high, then use the largest date, if set to :ow, use the lowest date.

Examples:

ParseDate.new(in_format: '%m/%d/%Y').to_proc.call('02/22/2013') # => Date.new(2013,2,22)

tform = ParseDate.new
tform.source_metadata = { in_format: '%m/%d/%Y' }
tform.to_proc.call('02/22/2013') # => Date.new(2013,2,22)
