github.com/wynshop-open-source/gomplate@v3.5.0+incompatible/docs-src/content/functions/time.yml (about) 1 ns: time 2 preamble: | 3 This namespace wraps Go's [`time` package](https://golang.org/pkg/time/), and a 4 few of the functions return a `time.Time` value. All of the 5 [`time.Time` functions](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time) can then be used to 6 convert, adjust, or format the time in your template. 7 8 ### Reference time 9 10 An important difference between this and many other time/date utilities is how 11 parsing and formatting is accomplished. Instead of relying solely on pre-defined 12 formats, or having a complex system of variables, formatting is accomplished by 13 declaring an example of the layout you wish to display. 14 15 This uses a _reference time_, which is: 16 17 ``` 18 Mon Jan 2 15:04:05 -0700 MST 2006 19 ``` 20 21 ### Constants 22 23 #### format layouts 24 25 Some pre-defined layouts have been provided for convenience: 26 27 | layout name | value | 28 |-------------|-------| 29 | `time.ANSIC` | `"Mon Jan _2 15:04:05 2006"` | 30 | `time.UnixDate` | `"Mon Jan _2 15:04:05 MST 2006"` | 31 | `time.RubyDate` | `"Mon Jan 02 15:04:05 -0700 2006"` | 32 | `time.RFC822` | `"02 Jan 06 15:04 MST"` | 33 | `time.RFC822Z` | `"02 Jan 06 15:04 -0700"` // RFC822 with numeric zone | 34 | `time.RFC850` | `"Monday, 02-Jan-06 15:04:05 MST"` | 35 | `time.RFC1123` | `"Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 MST"` | 36 | `time.RFC1123Z` | `"Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 -0700"` // RFC1123 with numeric zone | 37 | `time.RFC3339` | `"2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00"` | 38 | `time.RFC3339Nano` | `"2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999Z07:00"` | 39 | `time.Kitchen` | `"3:04PM"` | 40 | `time.Stamp` | `"Jan _2 15:04:05"` | 41 | `time.StampMilli` | `"Jan _2 15:04:05.000" `| 42 | `time.StampMicro` | `"Jan _2 15:04:05.000000"` | 43 | `time.StampNano` | `"Jan _2 15:04:05.000000000"` | 44 45 See below for examples of how these layouts can be used. 46 47 #### durations 48 49 Some operations (such as [`Time.Add`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.Add) and 50 [`Time.Round`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.Round)) require a 51 [`Duration`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Duration) value. These can be created 52 conveniently with the following functions: 53 54 - `time.Nanosecond` 55 - `time.Microsecond` 56 - `time.Millisecond` 57 - `time.Second` 58 - `time.Minute` 59 - `time.Hour` 60 61 For example: 62 63 ```console 64 $ gomplate -i '{{ (time.Now).Format time.Kitchen }} 65 {{ ((time.Now).Add (time.Hour 2)).Format time.Kitchen }}' 66 9:05AM 67 11:05AM 68 ``` 69 70 For other durations, such as `2h10m`, [`time.ParseDuration`](#time-parseduration) can be used. 71 funcs: 72 - name: time.Now 73 description: | 74 Returns the current local time, as a `time.Time`. This wraps [`time.Now`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Now). 75 76 Usually, further functions are called using the value returned by `Now`. 77 pipeline: false 78 rawExamples: 79 - | 80 Usage with [`UTC`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.UTC) and [`Format`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.Format): 81 ```console 82 $ gomplate -i '{{ (time.Now).UTC.Format "Day 2 of month 1 in year 2006 (timezone MST)" }}' 83 Day 14 of month 10 in year 2017 (timezone UTC) 84 ``` 85 - | 86 Usage with [`AddDate`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.AddDate): 87 ```console 88 $ date 89 Sat Oct 14 09:57:02 EDT 2017 90 $ gomplate -i '{{ ((time.Now).AddDate 0 1 0).Format "Mon Jan 2 15:04:05 MST 2006" }}' 91 Tue Nov 14 09:57:02 EST 2017 92 ``` 93 94 _(notice how the TZ adjusted for daylight savings!)_ 95 - name: time.Parse 96 description: | 97 Parses a timestamp defined by the given layout. This wraps [`time.Parse`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Parse). 98 99 A number of pre-defined layouts are provided as constants, defined 100 [here](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#pkg-constants). 101 102 Just like [`time.Now`](#time-now), this is usually used in conjunction with 103 other functions. 104 105 _Note: In the absence of a time zone indicator, `time.Parse` returns a time in UTC._ 106 pipeline: true 107 arguments: 108 - name: layout 109 required: true 110 description: The layout string to parse with 111 - name: timestamp 112 required: true 113 description: The timestamp to parse 114 rawExamples: 115 - | 116 Usage with [`Format`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.Format): 117 ```console 118 $ gomplate -i '{{ (time.Parse "2006-01-02" "1993-10-23").Format "Monday January 2, 2006 MST" }}' 119 Saturday October 23, 1993 UTC 120 ``` 121 - name: time.ParseDuration 122 description: | 123 Parses a duration string. This wraps [`time.ParseDuration`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseDuration). 124 125 A duration string is a possibly signed sequence of decimal numbers, each with 126 optional fraction and a unit suffix, such as `300ms`, `-1.5h` or `2h45m`. Valid 127 time units are `ns`, `us` (or `µs`), `ms`, `s`, `m`, `h`. 128 pipeline: true 129 arguments: 130 - name: duration 131 required: true 132 description: The duration string to parse 133 examples: 134 - | 135 $ gomplate -i '{{ (time.Now).Format time.Kitchen }} 136 {{ ((time.Now).Add (time.ParseDuration "2h30m")).Format time.Kitchen }}' 137 12:43AM 138 3:13AM 139 - name: time.ParseLocal 140 description: | 141 Same as [`time.Parse`](#time-parse), except that in the absence of a time zone 142 indicator, the timestamp wil be parsed in the local timezone. 143 pipeline: true 144 arguments: 145 - name: layout 146 required: true 147 description: The layout string to parse with 148 - name: timestamp 149 required: true 150 description: The timestamp to parse 151 rawExamples: 152 - | 153 Usage with [`Format`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.Format): 154 ```console 155 $ bin/gomplate -i '{{ (time.ParseLocal time.Kitchen "6:00AM").Format "15:04 MST" }}' 156 06:00 EST 157 ``` 158 - name: time.ParseInLocation 159 description: | 160 Same as [`time.Parse`](#time-parse), except that the time is parsed in the given location's time zone. 161 162 This wraps [`time.ParseInLocation`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseInLocation). 163 pipeline: true 164 arguments: 165 - name: layout 166 required: true 167 description: The layout string to parse with 168 - name: location 169 required: true 170 description: The location to parse in 171 - name: timestamp 172 required: true 173 description: The timestamp to parse 174 rawExamples: 175 - | 176 Usage with [`Format`](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.Format): 177 ```console 178 $ gomplate -i '{{ (time.ParseInLocation time.Kitchen "Africa/Luanda" "6:00AM").Format "15:04 MST" }}' 179 06:00 LMT 180 ``` 181 - name: time.Since 182 description: | 183 Returns the time elapsed since a given time.
