Description

Basic times units and types.

While pratically some units could hold infinite values, for practical and efficient purpose they are limited to int64 types for seconds and int types for years.

Most units use the unix epoch referential, but by no means reduce portability. the unix referential works under the Windows platform or any other platforms.

Synopsis

Time units

newtype Seconds Source

Number of seconds without a referential.

Can hold a number between [-2^63,2^63-1], which should be good for some billions of years.

However, because of limitation in the calendar conversion currently used, seconds should be in the range [-2^55,2^55-1], which is good for only 1 billion of year.

Constructors

Seconds Int64 

newtype Hours Source

Number of hours without a referential.

Constructors

Hours Int64 

Time enumeration

data WeekDay Source

Day of the week

the enumeration starts on Sunday.

Timezone

newtype TimezoneOffset Source

Offset against UTC in minutes

  • a positive number represent a location East of UTC.
  • a negative number represent a location West of UTC.

LocalTime t (-300) = t represent a time at UTC-5 LocalTime t (+480) = t represent a time at UTC+8

should be between -11H and +14H

Constructors

TimezoneOffset 

Fields

timezoneOffsetToMinutes :: Int

return the number of minutes

timezoneOffsetToSeconds :: TimezoneOffset -> SecondsSource

Return the number of seconds associated with a timezone

timezone_UTC :: TimezoneOffsetSource

The UTC timezone. offset of 0

Computer friendly format

Unix elapsed

newtype Elapsed Source

A number of seconds elapsed since the unix epoch.

Constructors

Elapsed Seconds 

data ElapsedP Source

A number of seconds and nanoseconds elapsed since the unix epoch.

Constructors

ElapsedP !Elapsed !NanoSeconds 

Human friendly format

Calendar time

data Date Source

human date representation using common calendar

Constructors

Date 

Fields

dateYear :: !Int

Constructors
