Class: Inversion::Template::TimeDeltaTag

Inherits:
AttrTag show all
Defined in:
lib/inversion/template/timedeltatag.rb

Overview

Inversion time delta tag.

This tag is a derivative of the ‘attr’ tag that transforms the results of its method call to a Time object (if it isn’t already), and then generates an English description of the different between it and the current time.

Syntax

Updated <?timedelta entry.update_date ?>.
