Astrolabe
Date and time library for Rust. Feature rich, lightweight and easy-to-use.
## Overview
Astrolabe is a date and time library for Rust which aims to be feature rich, lightweight (zero dependencies) and easy-to-use. It implements formatting, parsing and manipulating functions for date and time values.
### Features
- **Formatting** and **parsing** with format strings based on [Unicode Date Field Symbols](https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#Date_Field_Symbol_Table)
- **RFC 3339** timestamp parsing and formatting
- **Manipulation** functions to add, subtract, set and clear date units
- **Cron** expression parser
- **Timezone** offset
- **Local** timezone on UNIX platforms
- **Zero** dependencies
- **Serde** serializing and deserializing (With feature flag `serde`)
- **sqlx** postgres encoding and decoding (With feature flag `sqlx-postgres`)
## Examples
### Basic
A basic example which demonstrates creating, formatting and manipulating a `DateTime` instance.
```rust
use astrolabe::{DateTime, TimeUtilities, Precision};
// Create a DateTime instance from year, month, and days (day of month)
let date_time = DateTime::from_ymd(2022, 5, 2).unwrap();
// Use the format function to freely format your DateTime instance
assert_eq!("2022/05/02", date_time.format("yyyy/MM/dd"));
// Create a new instance with a modified DateTime
// The previous instance is not modified and is still in scope
let modified_dt = date_time.add_hours(11).add_minutes(23);
assert_eq!("2022/05/02 11:23:00", modified_dt.format("yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss"));
assert_eq!("2022-05-02T11:23:00Z", modified_dt.format_rfc3339(Precision::Seconds));
```
To see all implementations for the `DateTime` struct, check out it's [documentation](https://docs.rs/astrolabe/latest/astrolabe/struct.DateTime.html).
### Local timezone (UNIX systems only)
Astrolabe can parse the timezone from `/etc/localtime` to get the local UTC offset. This only works on UNIX systems.
```rust
use astrolabe::{DateTime, Offset, OffsetUtilities, Precision};
// Equivalent to `DateTime::now().set_offset(Offset::Local)`
let now = DateTime::now_local();
// Prints for example:
// 2023-10-08T08:30:00+02:00
println!("{}", now.format_rfc3339(Precision::Seconds));
assert_eq!(Offset::Local, now.get_offset());
```
See [`Offset`](https://docs.rs/astrolabe/latest/astrolabe/enum.Offset.html)
### CRON parsing
```rust
use astrolabe::CronSchedule;
// Every 5 minutes
let schedule = CronSchedule::parse("*/5 * * * *").unwrap();
for date in schedule.take(3) {
println!("{}", date);
}
// Prints for example:
// 2022-05-02 16:15:00
// 2022-05-02 16:20:00
// 2022-05-02 16:25:00
// Every weekday at 10:00
let schedule = CronSchedule::parse("0 10 * * Mon-Fri").unwrap();
for date in schedule.take(3) {
println!("{}", date.format("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss eeee"));
}
// Prints for example:
// 2022-05-03 10:00:00 Tuesday
// 2022-05-04 10:00:00 Wednesday
// 2022-05-05 10:00:00 Thursday
```
