I would like to count the number of users created each day. The problem arises that on some days no users a created so there are gaps in my array of users created by day. E.g.
[ ['14 Jan', 2], ['15 Jan', 4], ['17 Jan', 2] ] # [day, users created] I've written the following code which successfully works but I'm wondering if it can be done better as I am also wanting to sort users by month. So first: can it be written better Second(if you've got time) : how would you write to get users created in a month ------ data=[] start_date = Date.today-1month end_date = Date.today results = User.find(:all,:select => 'created_at', conditions = {:created_at => start_date..end_date}).group_by{|u| u.created_at.to_date}.sort #go through each date between start and end date and add 0 for missing days start_date.upto(end_date) do |date| result = results.find{|r| r[0]==date} users_count = result.nil? ? 0 : result[1].count data << [date.strftime("%d %b"), users_count] end ----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
