Month view

Rails
1

Hey guys need some help, I have a model like this:
t.integer :company_id
t.string :truck
t.string :trailer
t.string :driver
t.string :from
t.date :load_on
t.decimal :price

and I want to be able to see the trips in a month view like on this
website: TV Calendar July 2023 - Prime Time TV Schedule & TV Episode Calendar: Track your favourite TV shows

I have no idea how to do it, any help would be greatly appreciated.

See: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/UnderstandingViews
You probably want to use tables.

HTH,

It’s not about the views it’s the controller I added something like
this:

start_of_month = Date.today #create a DateTime object that is at the beginning of the month you are displaying end_of_month = 31/03/2008 #create a DateTime object that is at the end of the month you are displaying @trips = Trip.find(:all, :conditions => ["load_on BETWEEN ? AND ?", start_of_month, end_of_month] @trip_days = @trips.group_by { |m| m.load_on.day }

and then in the view

@trip_days.sort.each do |day, trips|
       day
       for trip in trips
         trip.truck
       end

but this doesn’t really work, and I want it to automatically show the
current month.

and then in the view

 @trip_days.sort.each do |day, trips|
>        day
>        for trip in trips
>          trip.truck
>        end

but this doesn’t really work, and I want it to automatically show the
current month.

What does not work? Do you get an exception? No data on the page?

Assuming your view is rhtml, it should look more like:

<html>
   more markup blah, blah, blah
   <% @trip_days.sort.each do |day, trips| %>
     <%= day %>
     <% for trip in trips %>
       <%= trip.truck %>
     <% end %>
   <% end %>
   more markup
</html>
