std.time
Duration struct
pub struct Duration
A distance between two instants, in whole milliseconds. May be negative: a.since(b) with
b later than a says so rather than hiding it.
millis: int
The distance in milliseconds; the sign is the direction.
pub static fn ofMillis(value: int): Duration
A duration of whole milliseconds.
pub static fn ofSeconds(value: int): Duration
A duration of whole seconds.
pub static fn ofMinutes(value: int): Duration
A duration of whole minutes.
pub fn totalMillis(): int
The whole distance in milliseconds.
pub fn totalSeconds(): int
The whole distance in seconds, truncated towards zero.
pub fn plus(other: Duration): Duration
The two added.
pub fn minus(other: Duration): Duration
The other subtracted from this one.
stdlib/std/time.lyr:25
Instant struct
pub struct Instant
A point on the wall clock: milliseconds since 1970-01-01 UTC.
millis: int
Milliseconds since the epoch; negative is before 1970.
pub static fn now(): Instant
The wall clock, now.
pub static fn ofEpochMillis(value: int): Instant
The instant at these epoch milliseconds — for stored timestamps and for tests, which want a clock that stands still.
pub fn epochMillis(): int
Milliseconds since the epoch — the raw number back, for storing.
pub fn since(earlier: Instant): Duration
The distance from earlier to this instant. Negative when earlier is actually later.
pub fn plus(d: Duration): Instant
This instant moved by a duration; a negative one moves backwards.
pub fn iso(): string
ISO 8601 in UTC, millisecond precision: 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z.
divFloor/modFloor rather than / and %, so an instant BEFORE the epoch lands in
the right day — truncation would round the day towards 1970 and hand the rest a negative
time.
