Expand description

Representation for chrono objects in human languages

Quick Start

HumanTime objects are created from chrono objects, such as chrono::DateTime and chrono::Duration

Examples

Convert current time taken as Local::now() to HumanTime

let dt = chrono::Local::now();
let ht = chrono_humanize::HumanTime::from(dt);

assert_eq!("now", format!("{}", ht));
let dt = chrono::Local::now() - chrono::Duration::minutes(58);
let ht = chrono_humanize::HumanTime::from(dt);

assert_eq!("an hour ago", format!("{}", ht));

For full control over the text representation use HumanTime::to_text_en()

use chrono::Duration;
use chrono_humanize::{Accuracy, HumanTime, Tense};

let dt = Duration::days(45);
let ht = HumanTime::from(dt);

assert_eq!("a month", ht.to_text_en(Accuracy::Rough, Tense::Present));
assert_eq!("1 month, 2 weeks and 1 day", ht.to_text_en(Accuracy::Precise, Tense::Present));

Structs

  • Duration wrapper that helps expressing the duration in human languages

Enums

  • The accuracy of the representation
  • Indicates the time of the period in relation to the time of the utterance

Traits

  • Present the object in human friendly text form
