Weird uninitialized constant error (Rails)

Question

The following code

class Schedule < ActiveRecord::Base     
  def self.get  
     today = TZInfo::Timezone.get('America/New_York').utc_to_local(Time.now.utc).to_date
  end    
end

produces the following error:

uninitialized constant Schedule::TZInfo

but only when I'm not running it from script/console. Thoughts?

(Also, is there a better way to get the current date in a given time zone?)

Answer 1

Have you tried adding

require 'tzinfo'
