+# DateParity
+
+Consistent date formatting per request; creating parity between date.to\_s and
+ string.to\_date.
+
+Provides a Date.format syntax and usage, similiar to Time.zone in rails. Can be 
+set per request (i.e. per user).
+
+## Installation
+
+Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
+
+    gem 'date_parity'
+
+And then execute:
+
+    $ bundle
+
+Or install it yourself as:
+
+    $ gem install date_parity
+
+## Usage
+
+In Rails controller before\_filter:
+Date.format = '%m/%d/%Y'
+or
+Date.format = current\_user.date\_format 
+
+In any view assuming @resourc\_created\_on is a date::
+@resource.start\_on  
+will render: 12/31/2012 
+
+And then you get parity when a form with this field is posted. 
+Rails will attempt to convert the posted string value of "12/31/2012"
+using "12/31/2012".to\_date in the respective model before validation. 
+Under normal circumstances, @resource.start\_on will end up being nil 
+because "12/31/2012".to\_date is invalid for Ruby Date.\_parse. 
+
+When date\_parity is required, Date will use the format string stored on Date.formt
+to correctly parse "12/31/2012". This is accomplished by overriding String.to\_date 
+to use : Date.strptime(self, Date.format).to\_s(:db)
+
