Module Core.Time_nsSource

Time module.

Sourcemodule Span : sig ... end
Sourcemodule Ofday : sig ... end
Sourcetype t = private Int63.t
include Ppx_hash_lib.Hashable.S with type t := t
Sourceval hash_fold_t : Base.Hash.state -> t -> Base.Hash.state
include Typerep_lib.Typerepable.S with type t := t
Sourceval typename_of_t : t Typerep_lib.Typename.t
include Bin_prot.Binable.S with type t := t
include Bin_prot.Binable.S_only_functions with type t := t
Sourceval bin_size_t : t Bin_prot.Size.sizer
Sourceval bin_write_t : t Bin_prot.Write.writer
Sourceval bin_read_t : t Bin_prot.Read.reader
Sourceval __bin_read_t__ : (int -> t) Bin_prot.Read.reader

This function only needs implementation if t exposed to be a polymorphic variant. Despite what the type reads, this does *not* produce a function after reading; instead it takes the constructor tag (int) before reading and reads the rest of the variant t afterwards.

Sourceval bin_shape_t : Bin_prot.Shape.t
include Base.Comparisons.S with type t := t
include Base.Comparisons.Infix with type t := t
val (>=) : t -> t -> bool
val (<=) : t -> t -> bool
val (=) : t -> t -> bool
val (>) : t -> t -> bool
val (<) : t -> t -> bool
val (<>) : t -> t -> bool
Sourceval equal : t -> t -> bool
val compare : t -> t -> int

compare t1 t2 returns 0 if t1 is equal to t2, a negative integer if t1 is less than t2, and a positive integer if t1 is greater than t2.

Sourceval min : t -> t -> t
Sourceval max : t -> t -> t
Sourcemodule Alternate_sexp : sig ... end

Note that we expose a sexp format that is not the one exposed in Time_ns_unix. The sexp is a single atom rendered as with to_string_utc, except that all trailing zeros are trimmed, rather than trimming in groups of three.

Sourcemodule Option : sig ... end

Option.t is like t option, except that the value is immediate. This module should mainly be used to avoid allocations.

include Quickcheck.S_range with type t := t
include Quickcheck_intf.S with type t := t
Sourceval quickcheck_generator : t Base_quickcheck.Generator.t
Sourceval quickcheck_observer : t Base_quickcheck.Observer.t
Sourceval quickcheck_shrinker : t Base_quickcheck.Shrinker.t
Sourceval gen_incl : t -> t -> t Base_quickcheck.Generator.t

gen_incl lower_bound upper_bound produces values between lower_bound and upper_bound, inclusive. It uses an ad hoc distribution that stresses boundary conditions more often than a uniform distribution, while still able to produce any value in the range. Raises if lower_bound > upper_bound.

Sourceval gen_uniform_incl : t -> t -> t Base_quickcheck.Generator.t

gen_uniform_incl lower_bound upper_bound produces a generator for values uniformly distributed between lower_bound and upper_bound, inclusive. Raises if lower_bound > upper_bound.

Comparisons
Sourceval is_earlier : t -> than:t -> Base.Bool.t
Sourceval is_later : t -> than:t -> Base.Bool.t
Conversions
Sourceval of_date_ofday : zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Core__.Date0.t -> Ofday.t -> t
Sourceval of_date_ofday_precise : Core__.Date0.t -> Ofday.t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> [ `Once of t | `Twice of t * t | `Never of t ]

Because timezone offsets change throughout the year (clocks go forward or back) some local times can occur twice or not at all. In the case that they occur twice, this function gives `Twice with both occurrences in order; if they do not occur at all, this function gives `Never with the time at which the local clock skips over the desired time of day.

Note that this is really only intended to work with DST transitions and not unusual or dramatic changes, like the calendar change in 1752 (run "cal 9 1752" in a shell to see). In particular it makes the assumption that midnight of each day is unambiguous.

Most callers should use of_date_ofday rather than this function. In the `Twice and `Never cases, of_date_ofday will return reasonable times for most uses.

Sourceval to_date_ofday : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Core__.Date0.t * Ofday.t
Sourceval to_date_ofday_precise : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Core__.Date0.t * Ofday.t * [ `Only | `Also_at of t | `Also_skipped of Core__.Date0.t * Ofday.t ]

Always returns the Date.t * Ofday.t that to_date_ofday would have returned, and in addition returns a variant indicating whether the time is associated with a time zone transition.

- `Only         -> there is a one-to-one mapping between [t]'s and
                   [Date.t * Ofday.t] pairs
- `Also_at      -> there is another [t] that maps to the same [Date.t * Ofday.t]
                   (this date/time pair happened twice because the clock fell back)
- `Also_skipped -> there is another [Date.t * Ofday.t] pair that never happened (due
                   to a jump forward) that [of_date_ofday] would map to the same
                   [t].
Sourceval to_date : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Core__.Date0.t
Sourceval to_ofday : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Ofday.t
Sourceval reset_date_cache : Base.Unit.t -> Base.Unit.t

For performance testing only; reset_date_cache () resets an internal cache used to speed up to_date and related functions when called repeatedly on times that fall within the same day.

Unlike Time_ns, this module purposely omits max_value and min_value: 1. They produce unintuitive corner cases because most people's mental models of time do not include +/- infinity as concrete values 2. In practice, when people ask for these values, it is for questionable uses, e.g., as null values to use in place of explicit options.

Sourceval convert : from_tz:Core__.Zone.t -> to_tz:Core__.Zone.t -> Core__.Date0.t -> Ofday.t -> Core__.Date0.t * Ofday.t

It's unspecified what happens if the given date/ofday/zone correspond to more than one date/ofday pair in the other zone.

Sourceval utc_offset : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Span.t
Other string conversions

The {to,of}_string functions in Time convert to UTC time, because a local time zone is not necessarily available. They are generous in what they will read in.

include Interfaces.Stringable with type t := t
Sourceval to_filename_string : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t

to_filename_string t ~zone converts t to string with format YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.mmm which is suitable for using in filenames.

Sourceval of_filename_string : Base.String.t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> t

of_filename_string s ~zone converts s that has format YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.mmm into time.

Sourceval to_string_abs : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t

to_string_abs ~zone t is the same as to_string t except that it uses the given time zone.

Sourceval to_string_abs_trimmed : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t

to_string_abs_trimmed is the same as to_string_abs, but drops trailing seconds and milliseconds if they are 0.

Sourceval to_string_abs_parts : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t Base.List.t
Sourceval to_string_trimmed : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t

Same as to_string_abs_trimmed, except it leaves off the timezone, so won't reliably round trip.

Sourceval to_sec_string : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t

Same as to_string_abs, but without milliseconds and the timezone. May raise if zone offsets move the apparent value beyond min_value_representable and max_value_representable.

Sourceval to_sec_string_with_zone : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t

Same as to_sec_string but includes timezone

Sourceval of_localized_string : zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t -> t

of_localized_string ~zone str read in the given string assuming that it represents a time in zone and return the appropriate Time.t

Sourceval of_string_gen : default_zone:(Base.Unit.t -> Core__.Zone.t) -> find_zone:(Base.String.t -> Core__.Zone.t) -> Base.String.t -> t

of_string_gen ~default_zone ~find_zone s attempts to parse s as a t, calling out to default_zone and find_zone as needed.

Sourceval to_string_iso8601_basic : t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> Base.String.t

to_string_iso8601_basic return a string representation of the following form: %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%s%Z e.g. to_string_iso8601_basic ~zone:Time.Zone.utc epoch = "1970-01-01T00:00:00.000000Z"

Sourceval occurrence : [ `First_after_or_at | `Last_before_or_at ] -> t -> ofday:Ofday.t -> zone:Core__.Zone.t -> t

occurrence side time ~ofday ~zone returns a Time.t that is the occurrence of ofday (in the given zone) that is the latest occurrence (<=) time or the earliest occurrence (>=) time, according to side.

NOTE: If the given time converted to wall clock time in the given zone is equal to ofday then the t returned will be equal to the t given.

Sourceval of_string : Base.String.t -> t
  • deprecated [since 2021-04] Use [of_string_with_utc_offset] or [Time_ns_unix.of_string]
Sourceval of_string_with_utc_offset : Base.String.t -> t

of_string_with_utc_offset requires its input to have an explicit UTC offset, e.g. 2000-01-01 12:34:56.789012-23, or use the UTC zone, "Z", e.g. 2000-01-01 12:34:56.789012Z.

Sourceval to_string : t -> Base.String.t
  • deprecated [since 2021-04] Use [to_string_utc] or [Time_ns_unix.to_string]
Sourceval to_string_utc : t -> Base.String.t

to_string_utc generates a time string with the UTC zone, "Z", e.g. 2000-01-01 12:34:56.789012Z.

Sourceval epoch : t

The minimum time that rounds to a Time.t with microsecond precision.

Sourceval max_value_for_1us_rounding : t

The maximum time that rounds to a Time.t with microsecond precision.

Sourceval min_value : t

An alias for min_value_for_1us_rounding.

  • deprecated [since 2019-02] use [min_value_representable] or [min_value_for_1us_rounding] instead
Sourceval max_value : t

An alias for max_value_for_1us_rounding.

  • deprecated [since 2019-02] use [max_value_representable] or [max_value_for_1us_rounding] instead
Sourceval now : Base.Unit.t -> t

The current time.

Sourceval add : t -> Span.t -> t

overflows silently

Sourceval add_saturating : t -> Span.t -> t

As add; rather than over/underflowing, clamps the result to the closed interval between min_value_representable and max_value_representable.

Sourceval sub_saturating : t -> Span.t -> t

As sub; rather than over/underflowing, clamps the result to the closed interval between min_value_representable and max_value_representable.

Sourceval sub : t -> Span.t -> t

Sourceval to_span_since_epoch : t -> Span.t
Sourceval of_span_since_epoch : Span.t -> t
Sourceval to_int63_ns_since_epoch : t -> Int63.t
Sourceval of_int63_ns_since_epoch : Int63.t -> t
Sourceval to_int_ns_since_epoch : t -> Base.Int.t

Will raise on 32-bit platforms. Consider to_int63_ns_since_epoch instead.

Sourceval of_int_ns_since_epoch : Base.Int.t -> t
Sourceval next_multiple : ?can_equal_after:Base.Bool.t -> base:t -> after:t -> interval:Span.t -> Base.Unit.t -> t

next_multiple ~base ~after ~interval returns the smallest time of the form:

  time = base + k * interval

where k >= 0 and time > after. It is an error if interval <= 0.

Supplying ~can_equal_after:true allows the result to satisfy time >= after.

This function is useful for finding linear time intervals, like every 30 minutes or every 24 hours. This is different from rounding to apparent clock-face internvals, like "every hour at :00 and :30" or "every day at noon", because time zone and daylight savings transitions may cause linear intervals and apparent clock-face intervals to differ.

Time zone offsets (in the tzdata time zone database, at least) are expressed in seconds, so rounding to units of seconds or smaller is not affected by time zones. The round* functions below provide some straightforward cases. For other small units that evenly divide into a second, call with base = epoch, after as the time to round, and interval as the unit span you are rounding to.

Sourceval prev_multiple : ?can_equal_before:Base.Bool.t -> base:t -> before:t -> interval:Span.t -> Base.Unit.t -> t

prev_multiple ~base ~before ~interval returns the largest time of the form:

  time = base + k * interval

where k >= 0 and time < before. It is an error if interval <= 0.

Supplying ~can_equal_before:true allows the result to satisfy time <= before.
