# strtotime
Golang implementation of `strtotime`, a very popular PHP function for converting English text to a timestamp. This is an exercise inspired on [this](https://github.com/kvz/locutus/blob/master/src/php/datetime/strtotime.js) Javascript implementation.
## Installation
`strtotime` uses Go modules and is compatible with Go 1.12 upwards. Install using `go get`.
```
go get github.com/carmo-evan/strtotime
```
After importing it, the `strtotime` package will expose only one method: `Parse`. It takes two arguments - an English string describing some point in time; and a unix timestamp that should represent the current time, or another referencial point in time you want to use.
Try it on [the playground](https://play.golang.org/p/k3RqaQy7CB-).
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/carmo-evan/strtotime"
"time"
)
func main() {
//Now is Nov 17, 2019
u, err := strtotime.Parse("next Friday 3pm", time.Now().Unix())
if err != nil {
// crash and burn
}
t := time.Unix(u,0)
fmt.Println(t)
//output: 2019-11-22 15:00:00 +0000 UTC
}
```
