Data.Thyme
Description
Thyme is a rewrite of the fine time library, with a particular focus
on performance for applications that make heavy use of timestamps. For
example, UTCTime is represented with μs precision as an Int64, which gives a usable range from -290419-11-07
19:59:05.224192 UTC to 294135-11-26 04:00:54.775807 UTC in the future.
Conversions are provided as Iso's from the lens
package, while AdditiveGroup,
VectorSpace and AffineSpace from
vector-space allow for more principled calculations instead of Num,
Fractional & al. Check each module for usage examples, and see
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/lens or
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/vector-space for further details.
Thyme uses strict and unpacked tuples throughout, e.g. YearMonthDay or
WeekDate. Descriptive Int synonyms such
as Year and DayOfMonth are also provided.
On platforms where Int is 64-bits wide, types with an Enum instance
can be used as Keys for IntMap, preferably
via the EnumMap wrapper provided by
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/enummapset-th. In any case the Ord
instances are much faster, if you must use Map.
Data.Thyme.Time is a drop-in compatibility module for existing code.
