Module chrono::serde::ts_milliseconds

Available on crate feature serde only.

Ser/de to/from timestamps in milliseconds

Intended for use with serdes with attribute.

Example

use chrono::serde::ts_milliseconds;
#[derive(Deserialize, Serialize)]
struct S {
    #[serde(with = "ts_milliseconds")]
    time: DateTime<Utc>
}

let time = NaiveDate::from_ymd_opt(2018, 5, 17).unwrap().and_hms_milli_opt(02, 04, 59, 918).unwrap().and_local_timezone(Utc).unwrap();
let my_s = S {
    time: time.clone(),
};

let as_string = serde_json::to_string(&my_s)?;
assert_eq!(as_string, r#"{"time":1526522699918}"#);
let my_s: S = serde_json::from_str(&as_string)?;
assert_eq!(my_s.time, time);
