pub struct DateTime<Tz: TimeZone> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

ISO 8601 combined date and time with time zone.

There are some constructors implemented here (the from_* methods), but the general-purpose constructors are all via the methods on the TimeZone implementations.

Implementations

Makes a new DateTime with given UTC datetime and offset. The local datetime should be constructed via the TimeZone trait.

Example
use chrono::{DateTime, TimeZone, NaiveDateTime, Utc};

let dt = DateTime::<Utc>::from_utc(NaiveDateTime::from_timestamp(61, 0), Utc);
assert_eq!(Utc.timestamp(61, 0), dt);

Retrieves a date component.

Retrieves a time component. Unlike date, this is not associated to the time zone.

Returns the number of non-leap seconds since January 1, 1970 0:00:00 UTC (aka “UNIX timestamp”).

Returns the number of non-leap-milliseconds since January 1, 1970 UTC

Note that this does reduce the number of years that can be represented from ~584 Billion to ~584 Million. (If this is a problem, please file an issue to let me know what domain needs millisecond precision over billions of years, I’m curious.)

Example
use chrono::Utc;
use chrono::TimeZone;

let dt = Utc.ymd(1970, 1, 1).and_hms_milli(0, 0, 1, 444);
assert_eq!(dt.timestamp_millis(), 1_444);

let dt = Utc.ymd(2001, 9, 9).and_hms_milli(1, 46, 40, 555);
assert_eq!(dt.timestamp_millis(), 1_000_000_000_555);

Returns the number of non-leap-nanoseconds since January 1, 1970 UTC

Note that this does reduce the number of years that can be represented from ~584 Billion to ~584. (If this is a problem, please file an issue to let me know what domain needs nanosecond precision over millennia, I’m curious.)

Example
use chrono::Utc;
use chrono::TimeZone;

let dt = Utc.ymd(1970, 1, 1).and_hms_nano(0, 0, 1, 444);
assert_eq!(dt.timestamp_nanos(), 1_000_000_444);

let dt = Utc.ymd(2001, 9, 9).and_hms_nano(1, 46, 40, 555);
assert_eq!(dt.timestamp_nanos(), 1_000_000_000_000_000_555);

Returns the number of milliseconds since the last second boundary

warning: in event of a leap second, this may exceed 999

note: this is not the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970 0:00:00 UTC

Returns the number of microseconds since the last second boundary

warning: in event of a leap second, this may exceed 999_999

note: this is not the number of microseconds since January 1, 1970 0:00:00 UTC

Returns the number of nanoseconds since the last second boundary

warning: in event of a leap second, this may exceed 999_999_999

note: this is not the number of nanoseconds since January 1, 1970 0:00:00 UTC

Retrieves an associated offset from UTC.

Retrieves an associated time zone.

Changes the associated time zone. This does not change the actual DateTime (but will change the string representation).

Adds given Duration to the current date and time.

Returns None when it will result in overflow.

Subtracts given Duration from the current date and time.

Returns None when it will result in overflow.

Subtracts another DateTime from the current date and time. This does not overflow or underflow at all.

Returns a view to the naive UTC datetime.

Returns a view to the naive local datetime.

Parses an RFC 2822 date and time string such as Tue, 1 Jul 2003 10:52:37 +0200, then returns a new DateTime with a parsed FixedOffset.

RFC 2822 is the internet message standard that specifices the representation of times in HTTP and email headers.

assert_eq!(
    DateTime::parse_from_rfc2822("Wed, 18 Feb 2015 23:16:09 GMT").unwrap(),
    FixedOffset::east(0).ymd(2015, 2, 18).and_hms(23, 16, 9)
);

Parses an RFC 3339 and ISO 8601 date and time string such as 1996-12-19T16:39:57-08:00, then returns a new DateTime with a parsed FixedOffset.

Why isn’t this named parse_from_iso8601? That’s because ISO 8601 allows some freedom over the syntax and RFC 3339 exercises that freedom to rigidly define a fixed format.

Parses a string with the specified format string and returns a new DateTime with a parsed FixedOffset. See the format::strftime module on the supported escape sequences.

See also Offset::datetime_from_str which gives a local DateTime on specific time zone.

Note that this method requires a timezone in the string. See NaiveDateTime::parse_from_str for a version that does not require a timezone in the to-be-parsed str.

Example
use chrono::{DateTime, FixedOffset, TimeZone};

let dt = DateTime::parse_from_str(
    "1983 Apr 13 12:09:14.274 +0000", "%Y %b %d %H:%M:%S%.3f %z");
assert_eq!(dt, Ok(FixedOffset::east(0).ymd(1983, 4, 13).and_hms_milli(12, 9, 14, 274)));

Returns an RFC 2822 date and time string such as Tue, 1 Jul 2003 10:52:37 +0200.

Returns an RFC 3339 and ISO 8601 date and time string such as 1996-12-19T16:39:57-08:00.

Return an RFC 3339 and ISO 8601 date and time string with subseconds formatted as per a SecondsFormat. If passed use_z true and the timezone is UTC (offset 0), use ‘Z’, as per Fixed::TimezoneOffsetColonZ. If passed use_z false, use Fixed::TimezoneOffsetColon.

Examples
let dt = Utc.ymd(2018, 1, 26).and_hms_micro(18, 30, 9, 453_829);
assert_eq!(dt.to_rfc3339_opts(SecondsFormat::Millis, false),
           "2018-01-26T18:30:09.453+00:00");
assert_eq!(dt.to_rfc3339_opts(SecondsFormat::Millis, true),
           "2018-01-26T18:30:09.453Z");
assert_eq!(dt.to_rfc3339_opts(SecondsFormat::Secs, true),
           "2018-01-26T18:30:09Z");

let pst = FixedOffset::east(8 * 60 * 60);
let dt = pst.ymd(2018, 1, 26).and_hms_micro(10, 30, 9, 453_829);
assert_eq!(dt.to_rfc3339_opts(SecondsFormat::Secs, true),
           "2018-01-26T10:30:09+08:00");

Formats the combined date and time with the specified format string. See the format::strftime module on the supported escape sequences.
