Welcome to EmojiClock!
This is a cute little gem that will display the current time in (the nearest) emoji clock format.
Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:
$ bundle add emoji_clock
If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:
$ gem install emoji_clock
You can get the nearest emoji clock by calling the EmojiClock.now method.
EmojiClock.now
# => "🕧"
You can also get the emoji clock for a specific time by calling the EmojiClock.at method.
time = Time.new(2021, 1, 1, 12, 30)
EmojiClock.at(time)
# => "🕧"
Since there are no clock emojis for times other than 00 minutes and 30 minutes, EmojiClock will return the nearest emoji clock for such times.
time = Time.new(2021, 1, 1, 12, 10)
EmojiClock.at(time)
# => "🕛"
time = Time.new(2021, 1, 1, 12, 50)
EmojiClock.at(time)
# => "🕐"
If you want to get emoji only when the time is exactly on the hour or half hour, you can pass :exact as an option.
EmojiClock will return nil if the time is not exactly on the hour or half hour.
time = Time.new(2021, 1, 1, 12, 10)
EmojiClock.at(time, exact: true)
# => nil
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
