Date/time library

Examples

```Rust use chrono::{TimeZone, Utc}; use dtg_lib::{tz, Dtg, Format};

let epoch = 1658448142; let nanoseconds = 936196858; let rfc3339 = "2022-07-22T00:02:22Z"; let defaultutc = "Fri 22 Jul 2022 00:02:22 UTC"; let defaultmt = "Thu 21 Jul 2022 18:02:22 MDT"; let x = "Xg6L02M"; let autc = format!("{epoch}.000000000\n{rfc3339}\n{defaultutc}\n{defaultutc}"); let amt = format!("{epoch}.000000000\n{rfc3339}\n{defaultutc}\n{defaultmt}"); let dayofweekutc = "Friday"; let dayofweekmt = "Thursday"; let tzutc = tz("UTC").ok(); let tzmt = tz("MST7MDT").ok(); let defaultfmt = Some(Format::default()); let dayofweek_fmt = Some(Format::custom("%A"));

// Create Dtg

let dtg1str = format!("{}", epoch);

let dtg1ts = Dtg::from(&dtg1str).unwrap(); let dtg1dt = Dtg::fromdt(&Utc.timestamp(epoch, 0)); let dtg1x = Dtg::fromx(x).unwrap();

asserteq!(dtg1ts, dtg1dt); asserteq!(dtg1dt, dtg1x); asserteq!(dtg1x, dtg1_ts);

// Create Dtg with nanoseconds

let dtg2str = format!("{}.{}", epoch, nanoseconds);

let dtg2ts = Dtg::from(&dtg2str).unwrap(); let dtg2dt = Dtg::from_dt(&Utc.timestamp(epoch, nanoseconds));

asserteq!(dtg2ts, dtg2_dt);

// Default format

asserteq!(dtg1ts.default(&None), defaultutc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.default(&tzutc), defaultutc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.default(&tzmt), defaultmt);

asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&defaultfmt, &None), defaultutc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&defaultfmt, &tzutc), defaultutc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&defaultfmt, &tzmt), default_mt);

// RFC 3339 format

asserteq!(dtg1ts.rfc3339(), rfc3339); asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&None, &None), rfc_3339);

// "x" format

asserteq!(dtg1ts.xformat(), x); asserteq!(dtg1_ts.format(&Some(Format::X), &None), x);

// "a" format

asserteq!(dtg1ts.aformat(&None), autc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.aformat(&tzutc), autc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.aformat(&tzmt), a_mt);

asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&Some(Format::A), &None), autc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&Some(Format::A), &tzutc), autc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&Some(Format::A), &tzmt), amt);

// Custom format

asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&dayofweekfmt, &None), dayofweekutc); asserteq!(dtg1ts.format(&dayofweekfmt, &tzmt), dayofweek_mt); ```

Formats

The following information originates from the [chrono documentation], which [dtg] and [dtg-lib] use internally.

Date specifiers

Spec. | Example | Description ------|---------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------- %Y | 2001 | The full proleptic Gregorian year, zero-padded to 4 digits. %C | 20 | The proleptic Gregorian year divided by 100, zero-padded to 2 digits. %y | 01 | The proleptic Gregorian year modulo 100, zero-padded to 2 digits. %m | 07 | Month number (01--12), zero-padded to 2 digits. %b | Jul | Abbreviated month name. Always 3 letters. %B | July | Full month name. Also accepts corresponding abbreviation in parsing. %h | Jul | Same as %b. %d | 08 | Day number (01--31), zero-padded to 2 digits. %e | 8 | Same as %d but space-padded. Same as %_d. %a | Sun | Abbreviated weekday name. Always 3 letters. %A | Sunday | Full weekday name. Also accepts corresponding abbreviation in parsing. %w | 0 | Sunday = 0, Monday = 1, ..., Saturday = 6. %u | 7 | Monday = 1, Tuesday = 2, ..., Sunday = 7. (ISO 8601) %U | 28 | Week number starting with Sunday (00--53), zero-padded to 2 digits. %W | 27 | Same as %U, but week 1 starts with the first Monday in that year instead. %G | 2001 | Same as %Y but uses the year number in ISO 8601 week date. %g | 01 | Same as %y but uses the year number in ISO 8601 week date. %V | 27 | Same as %U but uses the week number in ISO 8601 week date (01--53). %j | 189 | Day of the year (001--366), zero-padded to 3 digits. %D | 07/08/01 | Month-day-year format. Same as %m/%d/%y. %x | 07/08/01 | Locale's date representation (e.g., 12/31/99). %F | 2001-07-08 | Year-month-day format (ISO 8601). Same as %Y-%m-%d. %v | 8-Jul-2001 | Day-month-year format. Same as %e-%b-%Y.

Time specifiers

Spec. | Example | Description -------|---------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------- %H | 00 | Hour number (00--23), zero-padded to 2 digits. %k | 0 | Same as %H but space-padded. Same as %_H. %I | 12 | Hour number in 12-hour clocks (01--12), zero-padded to 2 digits. %l | 12 | Same as %I but space-padded. Same as %_I. %P | am | am or pm in 12-hour clocks. %p | AM | AM or PM in 12-hour clocks. %M | 34 | Minute number (00--59), zero-padded to 2 digits. %S | 60 | Second number (00--60), zero-padded to 2 digits. %f | 026490000 | The fractional seconds (in nanoseconds) since last whole second. %.f | .026490 | Similar to .%f but left-aligned. These all consume the leading dot. %.3f | .026 | Similar to .%f but left-aligned but fixed to a length of 3. %.6f | .026490 | Similar to .%f but left-aligned but fixed to a length of 6. %.9f | .026490000 | Similar to .%f but left-aligned but fixed to a length of 9. %3f | 026 | Similar to %.3f but without the leading dot. %6f | 026490 | Similar to %.6f but without the leading dot. %9f | 026490000 | Similar to %.9f but without the leading dot. %R | 00:34 | Hour-minute format. Same as %H:%M. %T | 00:34:60 | Hour-minute-second format. Same as %H:%M:%S. %X | 00:34:60 | Locale's time representation (e.g., 23:13:48). %r | 12:34:60 AM | Hour-minute-second format in 12-hour clocks. Same as %I:%M:%S %p.

Time zone specifiers

Spec. | Example | Description ------|----------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- %Z | ACST | Local time zone name. Skips all non-whitespace characters during parsing. %z | +0930 | Offset from the local time to UTC (with UTC being +0000). %:z | +09:30 | Same as %z but with a colon. %#z | +09 | Parsing only: Same as %z but allows minutes to be missing or present.

Date & time specifiers

Spec. | Example | Description ------|------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------ %c | Sun Jul 8 00:34:60 2001 | Locale's date and time (e.g., Thu Mar 3 23:05:25 2005). %+ | 2001-07-08T00:34:60.026490+09:30 | ISO 8601 / RFC 3339 date & time format. %s | 994518299 | UNIX timestamp, the number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00 UTC.

Special specifiers

Spec. | Description ------|------------------------ %t | Literal tab (\t). %n | Literal newline (\n). %% | Literal percent sign.
