Kinx Library --DateTime

DateTime

Introduction

** "looks JavaScript, brain (contents) Ruby, (stability is AC / DC)" ** Scripting language Kinx ). The library is the life of the language. So how to use the library.

This time it's DateTime. I made it available in Range.

How to use

using DateTime

The DateTime library is not built-in, so use the using directive to load it explicitly.

using DateTime;

Instantiation

Instantiation is basically done by creating a new DateTime object.

• new DateTime () ... instantiated at the current time
• new DateTime (dateString) ... Parsing and instantiating a string
• new DateTime (Unixtime) ... Instantiated from UNIX epoch time
• new DateTime (year, month, day [, hour, minute, second]) ... Instantiate by specifying date and time information individually

However, you can also do the following (just return it as new internally). Please use the one you like.

• DateTime.parse(...)
• DateTime(...)

In addition, dateString interprets the following format.

• "2020-01-01"、"2020-1-1"
• "2020/01/01"、"2020/1/1"
• "2020-01-01T10:00:05"、"2020-1-01T10:0:5"
• "2020/01/01 10:00:05"、"2020/1/01 10:0:5"

Method

The DateTime object has the following methods.

End of month

If you move a month with << or >> and the same day does not exist in the corresponding month, the last day of that month is used instead.

using DateTime;
System.println(DateTime("2001-3-28") << 1);  // 2001/02/28 00:00:00
System.println(DateTime("2001-3-31") << 1);  // 2001/02/28 00:00:00

This may behave unexpectedly (along with Ruby), as follows:

using DateTime;
System.println(DateTime("2001-1-31") >> 2);        // 2001/03/31 00:00:00
System.println(DateTime("2001-1-31") >> 1 >> 1);   // 2001/03/28 00:00:00
System.println(DateTime("2001-1-31") >> 1 >> -1);  // 2001/01/28 00:00:00

Range

To use it in Range, you should define the next method and the<=>method. So the DateTime object can be used in Range.

using DateTime;
(DateTime(2020,1,1)..DateTime(2020,1,10))
    .each(&(d) => System.println(d));

Since it is .., the last day is included. In the case of ..., the last day is not included.

2020/01/01 00:00:00
2020/01/02 00:00:00
2020/01/03 00:00:00
2020/01/04 00:00:00
2020/01/05 00:00:00
2020/01/06 00:00:00
2020/01/07 00:00:00
2020/01/08 00:00:00
2020/01/09 00:00:00
2020/01/10 00:00:00

Since it can be used in Range, it can be used as it is in for-in.

using DateTime;
for (var d in DateTime(2020,1,1)...DateTime(2020,1,10)) {
    System.println(d);
}

A loop that does not include the last day.

2020/01/01 00:00:00
2020/01/02 00:00:00
2020/01/03 00:00:00
2020/01/04 00:00:00
2020/01/05 00:00:00
2020/01/06 00:00:00
2020/01/07 00:00:00
2020/01/08 00:00:00
2020/01/09 00:00:00

in conclusion

It's been about half a year since I started making it. You can do various things. Isn't your next goal to be able to enrich the library and create some kind of app? You may be able to find a place somewhere if you can quickly create apps for niche applications.

See you next time.
