Convert the total seconds to time in rails

My total seconds is 125557

when i tried to convert the seconds into "H:M:S" by using 

Time.at(125557).utc.strftime("%H:%M:%S")

it gives like 10:52:37

but i want actually like 34:52:37 (adding one day to 10:52:37 )

Since Rails 6.1.0 you can do:

1.day.in_hours # => 24.0
3600.seconds.in_hours # => 1.0

Documentation: https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Duration.html#method-i-in_hours

I posted my answer here https://stackoverflow.com/a/62562658/2970582 ActiveSupport::Duration + inspect gives you valid results

You could try the ruby-duration gem if you want to deal with weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds more easily.

d = Duration.new(125557)
=> #<Duration:0x007f84180758e8 @days=1, @hours=10, @minutes=52, @negative=false, @seconds=37, @total=125557, @weeks=0>
d.total_hours
=> 34
d.total_minutes
=> 2092

Try this

total_seconds = 125557

seconds = total_seconds % 60
minutes = (total_seconds / 60) % 60
hours = total_seconds / (60 * 60)

format("%02d:%02d:%02d", hours, minutes, seconds)

Well, given that 34:52:37 is not a valid time string, it makes little sense to use time parsing/conversion libraries for this. Better to calculate it manually. div and mod are your best friends here. Take a look:

secs = 125557
secs_in_an_hour = 3600

hours, secs = secs.divmod(secs_in_an_hour)
hours # => 34
secs # => 3157 # This now contains only minutes and seconds, no full hours

It should be quite easy to evolve this to a full working solution.
