# Go String To Duration (go-str2duration)

This package allows to get a time.Duration from a string. The string can be a string retorned for time.Duration or a similar string with weeks or days too!.

Go Report Card
go.dev

## Download

```bash
go get github.com/xhit/go-str2duration/v2
```

## Features

Go String To Duration supports this strings conversions to duration:
- All strings returned in time.Duration String.
- A string more readable like 1w2d6h3ns (1 week 2 days 6 hours and 3 nanoseconds).
- `µs` and `us` are microsecond.

It's the same `time.ParseDuration` standard function in Go, but with days and week support.

**Note**: a day is 24 hour.

If you don't need days and weeks, use [`time.ParseDuration`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseDuration).

## Usage

```go
package main

import (
"fmt"
str2duration "github.com/xhit/go-str2duration/v2"
"os"
"time"
)

func main() {

for i, tt := range []struct {
dur string
expected time.Duration
}{
//This times are returned with time.Duration string
{"1h", time.Duration(time.Hour)},
{"1m", time.Duration(time.Minute)},
{"1s", time.Duration(time.Second)},
{"1ms", time.Duration(time.Millisecond)},
{"1µs", time.Duration(time.Microsecond)},
{"1us", time.Duration(time.Microsecond)},
{"1ns", time.Duration(time.Nanosecond)},
{"4.000000001s", time.Duration(4*time.Second + time.Nanosecond)},
{"1h0m4.000000001s", time.Duration(time.Hour + 4*time.Second + time.Nanosecond)},
{"1h1m0.01s", time.Duration(61*time.Minute + 10*time.Millisecond)},
{"1h1m0.123456789s", time.Duration(61*time.Minute + 123456789*time.Nanosecond)},
{"1.00002ms", time.Duration(time.Millisecond + 20*time.Nanosecond)},
{"1.00000002s", time.Duration(time.Second + 20*time.Nanosecond)},
{"693ns", time.Duration(693 * time.Nanosecond)},

//This times aren't returned with time.Duration string, but are easily readable and can be parsed too!
{"1ms1ns", time.Duration(time.Millisecond + 1*time.Nanosecond)},
{"1s20ns", time.Duration(time.Second + 20*time.Nanosecond)},
{"60h8ms", time.Duration(60*time.Hour + 8*time.Millisecond)},
{"96h63s", time.Duration(96*time.Hour + 63*time.Second)},

//And works with days and weeks!
{"2d3s96ns", time.Duration(48*time.Hour + 3*time.Second + 96*time.Nanosecond)},
{"1w2d3s96ns", time.Duration(168*time.Hour + 48*time.Hour + 3*time.Second + 96*time.Nanosecond)},

{"10s1us693ns", time.Duration(10*time.Second + time.Microsecond + 693*time.Nanosecond)},

} {
durationFromString, err := str2duration.ParseDuration(tt.dur)
if err != nil {
panic(err)

//Check if expected time is the time returned by the parser
} else if tt.expected != durationFromString {
fmt.Println(fmt.Sprintf("index %d -> in: %s returned: %s\tnot equal to %s", i, tt.dur, durationFromString.String(), tt.expected.String()))
}else{
fmt.Println(fmt.Sprintf("index %d -> in: %s parsed succesfully", i, tt.dur))
}
}
}
```

Also, you can convert to string the duration using `String(t time.Duration)` function. This support weeks and days and not return the ugly decimals from golang standard `t.String()` function. Units with 0 values aren't returned. For example: `1d1ms` means 1 day 1 millisecond.
