Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(method, *args) ⇒ Object

Intercept calls to .weeks, .days, .hours, .minutes and .seconds because Rails defines its own methods, so I'd like to prevent any redefining of Rails' methods.

Example

140.seconds
=> #<Duration: 2 minutes and 20 seconds>



351
352

# File 'lib/duration.rb', line 351

def method_missing(method, *args)
  if [:weeks, :days, :hours, :minutes, :seconds].include? method
    Duration.new(method => self)
  else
    __numeric_old_method_missing(method, *args)
  end
end
