Timelib for Rust

Timelib for Rust is a small Rust wrapper around the timelib library that is used to power PHP and MongoDB.

Installation

Prerequisites:

timelib depends on re2c to be built. You can install it easily on all major platforms:

1. Linux: apt-get install re2c
2. Mac: brew install re2c
3. Windows: choco install re2c
4. From source: re2c.org

Now you can install with:

bash cargo add timelib

Usage

rust timelib::strtotime("tomorrow".into(), None, None); timelib::strtotime("next tuesday".into(), Some(1654318823), Some("America/Chicago".into()));

Building

Make sure to check out all submodules.

Initial clone:

bash git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/westy92/timelib-rust

Post-clone:

bash git submodule init && git submodule update

Make sure to install re2c as described above.

You should now be able to run cargo build and cargo test.

Updating the submodule version

bash git submodule update --remote

Publishing

Remove --dry-run to publish for real.

bash cargo publish --dry-run
