NAME

FS::rate_time_interval - Object methods for rate_time_interval records

SYNOPSIS

 use FS::rate_time_interval;

 $record = new FS::rate_time_interval \%hash;
 $record = new FS::rate_time_interval { 'column' => 'value' };

 $error = $record->insert;

 $error = $new_record->replace($old_record);

 $error = $record->delete;

 $error = $record->check;

DESCRIPTION

An FS::rate_time_interval object represents an interval of clock time during the week, such as "Monday, 7 AM to 8 PM". FS::rate_time_interval inherits from FS::Record. The following fields are currently supported:

intervalnum

primary key

stime

Start of the interval, in seconds from midnight on Sunday.

etime

End of the interval.

ratetimenum

A foreign key to an FS::rate_time object representing the set of intervals to which this belongs.

METHODS

new HASHREF

Creates a new example. To add the example to the database, see "insert".

Note that this stores the hash reference, not a distinct copy of the hash it points to. You can ask the object for a copy with the hash method.

insert

Adds this record to the database. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false.

delete

Delete this record from the database.

replace OLD_RECORD

Replaces the OLD_RECORD with this one in the database. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false.

check

Checks all fields to make sure this is a valid interval. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false. Called by the insert and replace methods.

rate_time

Returns the FS::rate_time comprising this interval.

description

Returns two strings containing stime and etime, formatted "Day HH:MM AM/PM". Example: "Mon 5:00 AM". Seconds are not displayed, so be careful.
