There used to be multiple modules like `chrono::datetime` which only
provide a single type `DateTime`. In retrospect, this module structure
never reflected how people use those types; with the release of 0.3.0
`chrono::prelude` is a preferred way to glob-import types, and due to
reexports `chrono::DateTime` and likes are also common enough.
Therefore this commit removes those implementation modules and
flattens the module structure. Specifically:

All internal documentation links have been updated (phew!) and
verified with LinkChecker [1]. Probably we can automate this check
in the future.
[1] https://wummel.github.io/linkchecker/Closes#161. Compared to the original proposal, `chrono::naive` is
retained as we had `TsSeconds` types duplicated for `NaiveDateTime`
and `DateTime` (legitimately).
The intention was to add newer methods using `std::time::Duration`
to the older names, but it will break the API compatibility anyway.
Better to completely remove them right now.
This may sound strange, but the final type for the offset "value" was
originally `time::Duration` (returned by `Offset::local_minus_utc`).
This caused a lot of problems becaus adding `Duration` fully interacts
with leap seconds and `Duration` itself is somewhat deprecated.
This commit entirely replaces this role of `Duration` with
`FixedOffset`. So if we had `Offset` and `Duration` to represent
the "storage" offset type and the offset "value" in the past,
we now have `Offset` and `FixedOffset`. Storage-to-value conversion is
called to "fix" the offset---an apt term for the type.
The list of actual changes:
- The time zone offset is now restricted to UTC-23:59:59 through
UTC+23:59:59, and no subsecond value is allowed. As described above,
`FixedOffset` is now fully used for this purpose.
- One can now add and subtract `FixedOffset` to/from timelike values.
Replaces a temporary `chrono::offset::add_with_leapsecond` function.
Datelike & non-timelike values are never affected by the offset.
- UTC and local views to `Date<Tz>` are now identical. We keep
relevant methods for the consistency right now.
- `chrono::format::format` now receives `FixedOffset` in place of
`(Old)Duration`.
- `Offset` now has a `fix` method to resolve, or to "fix" the
"storage" offset (`Offset`) to the offset "value" (`FixedOffset`).
- `FixedOffset::{local_minus_utc, utc_minus_local}` methods are added.
They no longer depend on `Duration` as well.
- Rustc-serialize now uses the same serialization format as Serde.
This also means that the older format (naturally derived from
the internals) is no longer supported.
- Serialization support only existed for rustc-serialize has been
(temporarily) removed. This affects `Date<Tz>` and all individual
time zone types. This does *not* affect `DateTime<Tz>` as it has
individual support per `Tz`.
Please note that this is considered a temporary solution to avoid
stabilizing diverging implementations. Their implementations will
likely be reintroduced later.
Due to the backward compatibility we won't be going to remove support
for `time::Duration` in 0.3, and the initial 0.3.0 release won't have
proper `std::time::Duration` support (haven't finalized the logics).
However we will reserve proper names and signatures for the upcoming
`std::time::Duration` support---the "older" duration type will be
referred as "signed" in the names.
- Added a `chrono::prelude` module. This does not have the (old)
`Duration` type reexported, so the documentation has now correctly
replaced all occurrences of `chrono::Duration`. The existing
`chrono::Duration` reexport itself remains for the compatibility.
- Avoided using a plain `Duration` type in the signature, to avoid
any ambiguity.
- Renamed `checked_{add,sub}` to `checked_{add,sub}_signed`.
- Subtraction operator between two instants has been removed and
replaced with `signed_duration_since`. This follows the naming
chosen by `std::time::SystemTime` etc., and the version for newer
`std::time::Duration` will be named to `duration_since`.
For a while Chrono's serialization support was barely working,
i.e. usable but never been safe. While it wouldn't cause any memory
unsafety, attacker can fabricate an input that will make most users
confused (e.g. seemingly same Date which doesn't compare equally).
This commit will properly error for those cases.
It was also problematic that the generated rustc-serialize format is
very inefficient, especially for JSON. Due to the backward
compatibillity this commit does NOT fix them (likely to be in 0.3),
but this does try to define the exact format and define tons of
tests to detect any change to the serialization.
There are several remaining problems in the serialization format;
the serde implementation seems good, but it is unable to distinguish
some cases of leap seconds (practically won't matter, but still).
The rustc-serialize implementation would require a massive redesign.
For now, I postpone those issues to 0.3 (what a convenient excuse).
Fixes#42.
This is due to somewhat ambiguous semantics of `Date`. It cannot
really constructed without an intermediate `DateTime` much like
the removed `Time`, but it is much more useful than `Time` so
we need some reasonable meaning to it. This commit clarifies
that meaning and corrects some problems around it:
- The date itself is timezone-agnostic unless the timezone itself
has an offset equal to or greater than one day. In all current
time zones, the date conversion should be a no-op.
- The date may be attached some offset; that offset should have
been occurred within the corresponding day in either the local
time or the UTC.
- `TimeZone` is free to assign the offset within this constraint.
For convenience, the current `Local` time zone assumes the local
midnight or the UTC midnight.
- `DateTime<Tz>` and `Date<Tz>` is now `Copy`/`Send` when
`Tz::Offset` is `Copy`/`Send`. The implementations for them were
mistakenly omitted. Fixes#25.
- `Local::from_utc_datetime` didn't set a correct offset.
The tests for `Local` were lacking. Fixes#26.
`Time` with an associated time zone is in principle possible, but
in practice it can only meaningfully constructed from an existing
`DateTime`. this makes it hard to implement other operations
natural to `NaiveTime` for `Time` (e.g. `with_*` methods), so
we simply let it go.
migration path: if you *do* happen to use `Time`, don't panic!
every operation possible to `Time` is much more possible to
`NaiveTime`. if you have to deal with a local time, first combine
it with a `NaiveDate`, convert it via `TimeZone::from_local_datetime`
then extract `Time` part again.
- We have splitted `Offset` into `Offset` and `OffsetState` (name
changes in consideration). The former is used to construct and convert
local or UTC date, and the latter is used to store the UTC offset
inside constructed values. Some offsets are their own states as well.
- This uses lots of associated types which implementation is still in
flux. Currently it crashes with debuginfo enabled. We've temporarily
disabled debuginfo from `Cargo.toml`.
- This technically allows a conversion to the local time, but not yet
tested.
- Format string is internally represented as a series of formatting
items. Items can be directly given to now-public `format::format`
function as well.
- Format string parser is separated to `format::strftime` module.
This is to allow for potentional alternative formatting syntaxes.
- `DelayedFormat` now receives an iterator for formatting items.
- Every type modulo `LocalResult` and `Offset` now implements
`std::fmt::String`, so `.to_string()` can be used.
The exact format has been changed for better looking output.
- `std::fmt::Show` are intended for "stricter" output,
which mostly means the strict ISO 8601 format.
`DelayedFormat` also implements this, but only for inspection.
- `Offset` should implement `Show` but can omit `String`.
The old `name` method is merged into `String` implementations.
- Feature flags used are all accepted.
- Orphan check workaround is no longer required.
- Impl reachability rules prevent the addition of `Duration + others`,
as `Duration` is not implemented in this crate. Removed the impl;
use `others + Duration` as a workaround.
Added 'use' statements for cmd::Ordering, ops::{Add, Sub}, borrow::IntoCow, num::ToPrimitive
Changed deriving -> derive. Changed [x, ..N] -> [x; N].
Made format(f: &fmt::Formatter) return fmt::Result instead of
IoResult. Had to raise generic errors in a couple of cases where
IoResult's fields were being set (but these errors were being thrown
out anyway).
Temporarily set #![feature(old_orphan_check)] because
Thanks for @eddyb for explaining the format() situation.
- `Date/Time - Duration` is now supported. (duh!)
- `with_offset` methods have been added.
- `LocalResult` now implements common traits.
- `LocalResult` has several methods to propagate errors.
this makes the initialization from untrusted sources easier
(`off.ymd_opt(y,m,d).and_hms_opt(h,n,s).single()`).
- `num` dependency is gone. It was only used for floored division
and it is not hard to copy only that portion from num.
- `Duration + Date` (or so) was blocked by rust-lang/rust#7590,
which has been subsequently fixed.
- Removed unused `unsafe` checks.
`Duration` now has a `to_tuple` method which corresponds to
the original `(dur.ndays(), dur.nseconds(), dur.nnanoseconds())`.
new `num_*s()` methods in `Duration` always return the integral
number of specified units in the duration.
cf. rust-lang/rust#15934
the minimum and maximum for `DateZ` and `Duration` is now provided via
dedicated constants `{date,duration}::{MIN,MAX}`, much like built-in
`std::int` and others. they also now implements `std::num::Bounded`.
cf. rust-lang/rust#15934
- added a new example.
- reexported all public APIs in the crate root.
- made all constructors fail on the invalid arguments by default;
`*_opt()` variants have been added for the original behavior.
- same for `DateZ::{succ,pred}`.
- fixed a missing overflow check from `TimeZ::from_hms_{milli,micro}`.
