How to check if today is monday?

To know the year, I use <%= Time.now.year %>.

So I can check the year using <% if Time.now.year == 2020 %>You are living the 2020!<% end %>.

But... how to check if today is Monday? Or Sunday?

You can use:

Time.now.wday
# => 3

# this means it's wednesday

wday stands for Week day. And 0 stands for sunday and 6 stands for saturday.

So for monday you can check: Time.now.wday == 1, for sunday you can check: Time.now.wday == 0

you can use .monday? on Date.today

https://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.6.1/libdoc/date/rdoc/Date.html#method-i-monday-3F

And you can use .year if you need to compare to 2020 :)
