looking for a method that will show tomorrow's date in ruby

require 'date'

tomorrow = Date.today + 1

tomorrow is a date object. You can print it in the format you want.

Try:

Time.now + 24*60*60

(Edited: xaxxon is right. My earlier version used Rails' functionality)

Similar to Stu Gla:

today = Time.now
tomorrow = today + (60 * 60 * 24)

you can then use the .strftime method to format... example:

puts tomorrow.strftime("%F")
# => 2014-08-07
