Module `Netdate`Source

Support for common date/time parsing and formatting. * Many routines refer to the epoch, which for Unix is * 00:00:00 UTC, January 1, 1970. Timestamps given as * "seconds since the epoch" ignore leap seconds.

Sourceval localzone : int

The offset in minutes for the local time zone from the UTC. This is the zone from the time when the program was started. For long-running programs, it is possible that the zone changes when daylight savings become effective or non-effective.

Sourceval localzone_nodst : int

Returns the offset for the local time zone for the case that daylight savings are not effective.

Sourceval get_localzone : unit -> int

Retrieves the current offset for the local time zone, taking daylight savings into account.

Sourceval create : ?localzone:bool -> ?zone:int -> ?nanos:int -> float -> t

Convert the time (seconds since the epoch) to a date/time record

The nanos are added to the float as nanoseconds.

If zone is set this zone is taken. Otherwise, if localzone is set, the local timezone is used that is valid at the requested time. Otherwise, UTC is used.

Note that create ~localzone:true t is different from create ~zone:(get_localzone()) t because the latter assumes the timezone that is in effect when the function is called, and not the timezone at the time t.

Sourcetype compiled_localization

Sourceval posix_l9n : localization

The standard POSIX localization (English names)

Sourceval l9n_from_locale : string -> localization

Retrieves the localization from the passed locale (use "" for the standard locale). Timezone names are not provided by the locale

This function is not available on Windows (the POSIX localization is always returned).

Sourceval compile_l9n : localization -> compiled_localization

Preprocess the localization data for faster parsing and printing

Source

val parse : 
  ?localzone:bool ->
  ?zone:int ->
  ?l9n:compiled_localization ->
  string ->
  t

Parse a string and return a date/time record.

The following particles are recognized (by example):

Date: 1971/06/22
Date: 06/22/1971
Date: 1971-06-22
Date: 22-June-1971
Date: 22.06.1971
Date: June 22, 1971
Date: 22 June 1971
Date (2 digit year): 06/22/71
Date (2 digit year): 22.06.71
Date (2 digit year): 71-06-22
Date (2 digit year): 22-June-71
Month names (June, Jun)
Weekday names (Monday, Mon)
Time: 14:55
Time: 14:55:28
Time: 14:55:28.6754 (the fractional part is not returned)
Time may be preceded by T
Time zone: identifiers like UTC, CET, or Z
Time zone: +01:00, -01:00, only following time
Time zone: +0100, -0100, only following time

Years must have 2 or 4 digits. 2-digit years >= 70 are interpreted as 1900+x. 2-digit years < 70 are interpreted as 2000+x. Support for 2-digit years will be removed in a future version of Ocamlnet. (Support for 3-digit years is already removed in Ocamlnet 3.0.)

The names of months and weekdays are recognized that are configured with the l9n argument. By default, English names are recognized.

A date must be given. Time, time zones, and weekdays are optional. A missing time is reported as "00:00:00". A missing weekday is reported by setting week_day=(-1). A missing time zone is reported by setting zone to the passed default (which is determined from the zone and localzone arguments as for create).

It is not checked whether the parsed numbers make sense (e.g. whether months are between 1 and 12).

Date/time strings as defined in RFC 3339 are supported since Ocamlnet 3.0.

Sourceval since_epoch : t -> float

Convert a date/time record into the time (seconds since the epoch), rounded down to the next integral number.

Sourceval since_epoch_timespec : t -> float * int

Returns the seconds since the epoch as pair (seconds,nanos)

Sourceval since_epoch_approx : t -> float

Same, but the nanos are added to the seconds. The precision of floats is not sufficient to represent this precisely, so the result is only an approximation.

Sourceval week_day : t -> int

Returns the week day. If the week_day field is (-1) the week day is computed.

Sourceval year_day : t -> int

Returns the year day (range 0 to 365)

Sourceval iso8601_week_pair : t -> int * int

Returns (week_number, year) for the ISO-8601 definition of weeks. The week starts with Monday, and has numbers 1-53. A week is considered to be part of the year into which four or more days fall.

Format a date/time record according to the format string and outputs * the resulting string to the channel. * * The format string consists of zero or more conversion specifications * and ordinary characters. All ordinary characters are output directly * to the channel. A conversion specification consists of the '%' * character and one other character. * * The conversion specifications are: * * - %A: full weekday name. * - %a: abbreviated weekday name. * - %B: full month name. * - %b: abbreviated month name. * - %C: (year / 100) as an integer; single digits are preceded by a zero. * - %c: the preferred date+time representation of l9n * - %D: equivalent to "%m/%d/%y". * - %d: day of the month as an integer (01-31); single digits are * preceded by a zero. * - %e: day of the month as an integer (1-31). * - %F: equivalent to "%Y-%m-%d" (ISO 8601) * - %G: the year of the week according to the ISO-8601 week definition * - %g: same as %G but uses a two-digit year * - %H: hour (24-hour clock) as an integer (00-23). * - %h: the same as %b. * - %I: hour (12-hour clock) as an integer (01-12). * - %j: day of the year as an integer (001-366). * - %k: hour (24-hour clock) as an integer (0-23); * single digits are preceded by a blank. * - %l: hour (12-hour clock) as an integer (1-12); * single digits are preceded by a blank. * - %M: minute as an integer (00-59). * - %m: month as an integer (01-12). * - %n: a newline. * - %p: "AM" or "PM" as defined in l9n, in uppercase * - %P: "am" or "pm" as defined in l9n, in lowercase * - %R: equivalent to "%H:%M". * - %r: the time in am/pm notation according to l9n * - %S: second as an integer (00-60). This format accepts a precision argument, e.g. %.3S to print the second with three digits after the dot. * - %s: number of seconds since the epoch * - %T: equivalent to "%H:%M:%S". * - %t: a tab. * - %U: week number of the year (Sunday as the first day * of the week) as an integer (00-53). * - %u weekday (Monday as the first day of the week) as * an integer (1-7). * - %V: week number of the year (ISO-8601 definition, use together with * %G or %g * - %W: week number of the year (Monday as the first day * of the week) as an integer (00-53). * - %w: weekday (Sunday as the first day of the week) as * an integer (0-6). * - %X: representation of the time according to l9n * - %x: representation of the date according to l9n * - %Y: year with century as an integer. * - %y: year without century as an integer (00-99). * - %z: time zone offset from UTC; a leading plus sign * stands for east of UTC, a minus sign for west of UTC, hours and * minutes follow with two digits each and no delimiter between them * (common form for RFC 822 date headers). * - %Z: same as %z * - %:z: time zone with colon, e.g. +05:00 (new since Ocamlnet 3) * - %%: a `%' character. * * If l9n is not passed, the default is the POSIX localization * (English names).
