i'm try fullcalendar for my application with rails 3.2 and using postgresql for dbms. to the point,

on model event.rb

class Event < ActiveRecord::Base

  attr_accessible :all_day, :ends_at, :description, :name, :starts_end

  scope :between, lambda {|start_time, end_time|
    {:conditions => ["? < starts_at < ?", Event.format_date(start_time), Event.format_date(end_time)] }
  }

  # need to override the json view to return what full_calendar is expecting.
  # http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/docs/event_data/Event_Object/
  def as_json(options = {})
    {
      :id => self.id,
      :name => self.name,
      :description=> self.description || "",
      :start => starts_at.rfc822,
      :end => ends_at.rfc822,
      :allDay => self.all_day,
      :recurring => false,
      :url => Rails.application.routes.url_helpers.event_path(id),
      #:color => "red"
    }

  end

  def self.format_date(date_time)
    Time.at(date_time.to_i).to_formatted_s(:db)
  end

end

for starts_at and ends_at i'm using date type (not datetime)

on events.js.coffee

$(document).ready ->
  $('#calendar').fullCalendar
    editable: true,
    header:
      left: 'prev,next today',
      center: 'title',
      right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
    defaultView: 'month',
    height: 500,
    slotMinutes: 30,

    eventSources: [{
      url: '/admin'+'/events',
    }],

    timeFormat: 'h:mm t{ - h:mm t} ',
    dragOpacity: "0.5"

    eventDrop: (event, dayDelta, minuteDelta, allDay, revertFunc) ->
      updateEvent(event);

    eventResize: (event, dayDelta, minuteDelta, revertFunc) ->
      updateEvent(event);


updateEvent = (the_event) ->
  $.update "/events/" + the_event.id,
    event:
      name: the_event.name,
      starts_at: "" + the_event.start,
      ends_at: "" + the_event.end,
      description: the_event.description

on controller admin/events_controller.rb

def index
    @events = Event.scoped
    @events = Event.between(params['start'], params['end']) if (params['start'] && params['end'])

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html # index.html.erb
      format.json { render json: @events }
    end
  end

First, I insert an event and successfully and when run to localhost:3000/admin/events/ I get the following error such as

      Event Load (14.0ms)  SELECT "events".* FROM "events" WHERE ('2012-11-25 00:00:
    00' < starts_at < '2013-01-06 00:00:00')
    PG::Error: ERROR:  syntax error at or near "<"
    LINE 1: ...events"  WHERE ('2012-11-25 00:00:00' < starts_at < '2013-01...
                                                                 ^
    : SELECT "events".* FROM "events"  WHERE ('2012-11-25 00:00:00' < starts_at < '2
    013-01-06 00:00:00')
    Completed 500 Internal Server Error in 100ms

    ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid (PG::Error: ERROR:  syntax error at or near "<"
    LINE 1: ...events"  WHERE ('2012-11-25 00:00:00' < starts_at < '2013-01...
                                                                 ^
    : SELECT "events".* FROM "events"  WHERE ('2012-11-25 00:00:00' < starts_at < '2
    013-01-06 00:00:00')):

Update

change condition with

{:conditions => [
  "starts_at > ? and starts_at < ?",
  Event.format_date(start_time), Event.format_date(end_time)
] }

and on command promnt

 Event Load (2.0ms)  SELECT "events".* FROM "events" WHERE (starts_at > '2012-1
-25 00:00:00' and starts_at < '2013-01-06 00:00:00')
ompleted 200 OK in 31ms (Views: 15.0ms | ActiveRecord: 12.0ms)

but event not showing in calendar :(

You can't but something like:

a < starts_at < b

in a WHERE clause, that's just not valid SQL. You can, however, put:

starts_at > a AND starts_at < b

You probably want:

{:conditions => [
  "starts_at > ? and starts_at < ?",
  Event.format_date(start_time), Event.format_date(end_time)
] }

BTW, the recommended approach for scopes with arguments is to use a class method:

Using a class method is the preferred way to accept arguments for scopes.

So you probably want:

def self.between(start_time, end_time)
  where('starts_at > :lo and starts_at < :up',
    :lo => Event.format_date(start_time),
    :up => Event.format_date(end_time)
  )
end
