Serde Millis

Documentation | Github | Crate

A serde wrapper, that can be used to serialize timestamps and durations as milliseconds. It's often useful together with serde_json to communicate with Javascript.

Example

```rust

[macro_use]

extern crate serde_derive;

extern crate serde; extern crate serde_millis;

use std::time::{Duration, SystemTime, Instant};

[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]

struct Timestamps { #[serde(with = "serde_millis")] time: SystemTime,

#[serde(with = "serde_millis")]
latency: Duration,

// Instant is serialized relative to the current time, or in
// other words by formula (but works for future instants too):
//
//   ts = SystemTime::now() - (Instant::now() - target_instant)
//
#[serde(with = "serde_millis")]
timestamp: Instant,

} ```
