or use perl method:
print scalar localtime (time() - 86400 * n);

To get date seven days from now:
print scalar localtime (time() + 86400 * 7);
7 days before current date:
print scalar localtime (time() - 86400 * 7);

mason::plugin::dollardot
Mason::Plugin::DollarDot(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mason::Plugin::DollarDot(3pm)
NAME
Mason::Plugin::DollarDot - Allow $. as substitution for $self-> and in attribute names
SYNOPSIS
<%class>
has 'name';
has 'date';
</%class>
<%method greet>
Hello, <% $.name %>. Today is <% $.date %>.
</%method>
...
% $.greet();
<%init>
# Set the date
$.date(scalar(localtime));
# or, if combined with LvalueAttributes
$.date = scalar(localtime);
</%init>
DESCRIPTION
This plugin substitutes "$.identifier" for "$self->identifier" in all Perl code inside components, so that $. can be used when referring to
attributes and calling methods. The actual regex is
s/ $.([^Wd]w*) / $self->$1 /gx;
RATIONALE
In Mason 2, components have to write "$self->" a lot to refer to attributes that were simple scalars in Mason 1. This eases the transition
pain. $. was chosen because of its similar use in Perl 6.
This plugin falls under the heading of gratuitous source filtering, which the author generally agrees is Evil. That said, this is a very
limited filter, and seems unlikely to break any legitimate Perl syntax other than use of the $. special variable (input line number).
BUGS
Will not interpolate as expected inside double quotes:
"My name is $.name" # nope
instead you have to do
"My name is " . $.name
