ElapsedTime

Add support for converting an English representation of elapsed time into seconds and back (with validation).

Example

"1 day, 10 hours, 17 minutes and 36 seconds".parse_elapsed_time
=> 123456

123456.to_elapsed_time
=> "1 day, 10 hours, 17 minutes and 36 seconds"

class Job < ActiveRecord::Base
  elapsed_time :estimate
  validates_elapsed_time_of :estimate, :allow_nil => true
end
