 # TypeCast
 
-Type casting of attributes defined in superclass or realized through method_missing. Works only for string attributes.

+Converts string attributes with parser object (object that respond_to? :parse)<br />

+## History :)
+
+Gem was originally created to use with ActiveRecourse, because next stuff don't work
+
+```ruby
+class User < ActiveResource::Base
+  attribute 'created_at', :time # doesn't work
+  attribute 'created_at', :datetime # doesn't work
+
+  # doesn't work
+  schema do
+    datetime :created_at
+  end
+
+  # doesn't work
+  schema do
+    time :created_at
+  end
+end
+```
+
+Next solution works but has some issue
+
+```ruby
+# It check all atributes and parses to DateTime all that matches datetime regexp.
+ActiveSupport::JSON::Encoding.use_standard_json_time_format = true
+ActiveSupport.parse_json_times = true
+```
+
+But ruby's [DateTime.strftime](http://apidock.com/ruby/DateTime/strftime) method has minor bug: `DateTime.strftime('%Z')` [output is incorrect format](https://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/4349831)
+
+```ruby
+Time.now.strftime('%Z') # => "EEST"
+DateTime.now.strftime('%Z') # => "+03:00"
+```
+
+You can monkey patch `ActiveSupport` to use `Time.parse` insted of `DateTime.parse` to avoid this issue, but it still be slower
+
+```ruby
+module ActiveSupport
+  module JSON
+    class << self
+    private
+      def convert_dates_from(data)
+        case data
+        when nil
+          nil
+        when DATE_REGEX
+          begin
+            Time.parse(data)
+          rescue ArgumentError
+            data
+          end
+        when Array
+          data.map! { |d| convert_dates_from(d) }
+        when Hash
+          data.each do |key, value|
+            data[key] = convert_dates_from(value)
+          end
+        else
+          data
+        end
+      end
+    end
+  end
+end
+```
+
+Among cons of the proposed solution is that you'll need add type casting to all models.<br/>
+Or perhaps `type_cast` common attributes in `ActiveResource::Base`
+
+```ruby
+class ActiveResource::Base
+  include TypeCast
+  type_cast :created_at, :updated_at, Time
+end
+```
