I’m pleased to announce the first release of Timedesc. Timedesc provides utilities to describe points of time, and properly handle calendar and time zone information.
You can find the tutorial and API doc here.
Features
- Timestamp and date time handling with platform independent time zone support
- Subset of the IANA time zone database is built into this library
- Supports Gregorian calendar date, ISO week date, and ISO ordinal date
- Supports nanosecond precision
- ISO8601 parsing and RFC3339 printing
Some context
This is a much more polished repackaging of the date time components from Timere. The separation and restructuring came from the growing size of the date time components, and very nice and extensive feedback on UX from @gasche at issue #25 and other issues branching from it (many thanks!).
And as usual, many thanks to @Drup for his advice.
