Datamapper Timestamps

If you want your created_at, updated_at, created_on and updated_on fields automatically set in your Datamapper model, you need to require 'dm-timestamps' before.


require 'dm-timestamps'

class Asset
  include DataMapper::Resource

  property :id, Integer,  :serial => true
  property :created_at, DateTime
  property :updated_at, DateTime
end
