- Serde 0.8 is now supported. (#86)
- The deserialization implementation for rustc-serialize now properly
verifies the input. Also tons of tests have been added. (#42)
- The main documentation (`src/lib.rs` AND `README.md`) now properly
link to other types when rendered.
- The role of `TimeZone` trait is explained more thoroughly.
(Hopefully) fixes#82.
- Added `%.3f`, `%.6f` and `%.9f` specifier for formatting fractional seconds
up to 3, 6 or 9 decimal digits. This is a natural extension to the existing `%f`.
Note that this is (not yet) generic, no other value of precision is supported. (#45)
- Forbade unsized types from implementing `Datelike` and `Timelike`.
This does not make a big harm as any type implementing them should be already sized
to be practical, but this change still can break highly generic codes. (#46)
- Fixed a broken link in the `README.md`. (#41)
- Tons of supporting examples for the documentation have been added. More to come.
Basically, this should close#12 when officially released.
- Formatting syntax is now refactored out of the rendering logic.
The main syntax is available in the `format::strftime` module,
which also serves as a documentation for the syntax.
- A parser (modelled after `strptime(3)`) has been implemented.
See the individual commits for the detailed implementation.
- There are two ways to get a timezone-aware value from a string:
`Offset` or `DateTime<FixedOffset>`. The former should be used
when the offset is known in advance (e.g. assume the local date)
while the latter should be used when the offset is unknown.
Naive types have a simple `from_str` method.
- There are some known problems with the parser (even after
tons of tests), which will be sorted out in 0.2. Known issues:
- This does not exactly handle RFC 2822 and RFC 3339, which
subtly differs from the current implementation in
case-sensitivity, whitespace handling and legacy syntax.
I'd like to integrate #24 for this cause.
- Time zone names are not recognized at all. There is even
no means to get a name itself, not sure about the resolution.
- `Parsed` does *not* constrain `year` to be non-negative,
so manually prepared `Parsed` may give a negative year.
But the current verification pass may break such cases.
- I absolutely don't know about the parser's performance!
- `AUTHORS.txt` has been added, for what it's worth.
