Astrolabe
Status
Astrolabe is currently in heavy development. Please do not use the crate in production yet.
Overview
Astrolabe is a date and time library for Rust which aims to be feature rich, lightweight (zero dependencies) and easy-to-use.
Features
At this stage of development, not all features have been fully implemented.
DateTime
, a wrapper aroundstd::time::SystemTime
which implements formatting and manipulation functions- Formatting
- RFC3339 timestamp
- Formatting with format strings based on Unicode Date Field Symbols. (Which allows formatting
SystemTime
into basically any string format)
- Manipulation
- Manipulation functions like
DateTime::add
orDateTime::sub
to create a new, modifiedDateTime
struct
- Manipulation functions like
- Timezone
- Specify a timezone offset which will be applied in any format function
- Zero dependencies
Example
A basic example which demonstrates creating, formatting and manipulating a DateTime
instance.
use astrolabe::{DateTime, Precision, Unit};
// 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").unwrap());
// 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(11, Unit::Hour).add(23, Unit::Min);
assert_eq!("2022/05/02 11:23:00", modified_dt.format("yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss").unwrap());
assert_eq!("2022-05-02T11:23:00Z", modified_dt.format_rfc3339(Precision::Seconds));

struct, check out it's documentation.
