How to write a query to compare current date to created_at timestamps in database?

问题

I would like to write a query to compare created_at timestamp with my current date in Ruby on Rails using ActiveRecord and I don't quite know how do it yet

Date is stored like this -> created_at: 2019-06-03 03:30:40

回答1:

Try this:

<% if @user.created_at > 5.days.ago.beginning_of_day %>
  <span>New User!</span>
<% end%>

Or you can use:

<%= time_ago_in_words(@user.created_at) %>
