I am faced with an issue in Ruby on Rails. I am looking to convert a string of format Tue, 10 Aug 2010 01:20:19 -0400 (EDT) to a date object.

Is there anyway i could do this.

Here is what I've looked and tried at the following with no luck:

  1. Date.strptime(updated,"%a, %d %m %Y %H:%M:%S %Z")
  2. Chronic Parser
  3. Ruby: convert string to date
  4. Parsing date from text using Ruby

Please help me out with this.
