CCTZ is a C++ library for translating between absolute and civil times using the rules of a time zone.
Install
You will need C++11 compatible compiler to build this binding. For most systems this will work:
$ npm install --save cctz
If you have Ubuntu 12.04, then install clang-3.4
and set-up environment:
$ sudo apt-get install clang-3.4
$ export CXX=clang++
$ export npm_config_clang=1
Usage
const {convert, format, CivilTime} = require('cctz');
const unix = convert(new CivilTime(2015, 9, 22, 9), 'America/Los_Angeles');
console.log(format('Talk starts at %T %z (%Z)', unix, 'America/New_York'));
// => Talk starts at 12:00:00 -0400 (EDT)
API
convert(time, timezone)
Converts CivilTime
to unix timestamp and vice versa.
time
Type: CivilTime
or number
If time
is CivilTime
, then method returns Unix timestamp (without fractional part).
Otherwise returns CivilTime
.
timezone
Type: TimeZone
or string
TimeZone objcet, that represents target timezone for converting.
format(format, unix, [timezone])
Returns formatted unix timestamp according to timezone.
format
Type: string
Format of output. See strftime documentation and Google CCTZ sources for syntax.
unix
Type: number
Unix timestamp in seconds (can have fractional part).
timezone
Type: TimeZone
or string
Default: local timezone
TimeZone objcet, that represents target timezone for formatting.
parse(format, input, [timezone])
Parses input
string according to format
string (assuming input
in timezone
).
Returns unix timestamp or undefined
if parsing failed.
format
Type: string
Format of input
argument. See strftime documentation and Google CCTZ sources for syntax.
input
Type: string
Input string to parse.
timezone
Type: TimeZone
or string
Default: Timezone from input
or local timezone
Timezone, that should be used in parse. Timezone can be part of input:
cctz.parse('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Ez', '2015-09-22 09:35:12+03:00');
tz(name)
Alias for
cctz.load_time_zone
Use this method instead new TimeZone
– because it caches TimeZone
objects inside.
Returns TimeZone
object.
name
Type: string
Timezone name, that should be loaded from /usr/share/zoneinfo
.
now()
Alias for
Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000)
Returns unix timestamp in seconds. All methods can accept timestamp with fractional milliseconds (if you need such accuracy).
CivilTime
Holder for cctz::civil_second
with getters and setters for properties.
CivilTime(year = 1970, month = 1, day = 1, hour = 0, minute = 0, second = 0)
Creates CivilTime object with next properties:
year
– getter and settermonth
– getter and setter [1:12]day
– getter and setter [1:31]hour
– getter and setter [0:23]minute
– getter and setter [0:59]second
– getter and setter [0:59]yearday
– only getter [1:356]weekday
– only getter [0:6]
Tip: Fastest way to add amount of time is to add number of seconds to unix timestamp.
CivilTime.startOfYear()
Returns new CivilTime object with start of year.
CivilTime.startOfMonth()
Returns new CivilTime object with start of month.
CivilTime.startOfDay()
Returns new CivilTime object with start of day.
CivilTime.startOfHour()
Returns new CivilTime object with start of hour.
CivilTime.clone()
Returns cloned CivilTime object.
TimeZone
Holder for cctz::time_zone
.
TimeZone(name)
Creates new object with TimeZone.
TimeZone.lookup(unix)
Returns cctz::absolute_lookup
object.
TimeZone.lookup(civiltime)
Returns cctz::civil_lookup
object.
TimeZone.name
Name of TimeZone.
