将字符串datetime转换为Ruby datetime

Question

如何将“ 2013-10-20 18:36:40”转换为Ruby日期时间？

我正在尝试以下操作，但不起作用：

"2013-10-20 18:36:40".to_datetime

做到这一点并浪费时间：

2013-10-20 00:00:00 UTC

Answer 1

使用DateTime::strptime ：

require 'date'
DateTime.strptime("2013-10-20 18:36:40", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
#<DateTime: 2013-10-20T18:36:40+00:00 ((2456586j,67000s,0n),+0s,2299161j)>

Answer 2

如果系统上安装了rails，则可以执行以下操作：-

require 'active_support/core_ext/string/conversions'

"2013-10-20 18:36:40".to_time



1.9.2p320 :001 > require 'active_support/core_ext/string/conversions'
 => true
1.9.2p320 :003 > "2013-10-20 18:36:40".to_time
 => 2013-10-20 18:36:40 UTC 

Answer 3

还有DateTime#parse方法：

2.1.0 :001 > require 'date'
 => true 
2.1.0 :002 > DateTime.parse('2013-10-20 18:36:40')
 => #<DateTime: 2013-10-20T18:36:40+00:00 ((2456586j,67000s,0n),+0s,2299161j)> 

如果您使用Rails，请考虑编写时区安全代码：

Time.zone.parse("2013-10-20 18:36:40")
