faketime
Provides a method unix_time
which returns elapsed time since UNIX EPOCH.
The returned time can be faked in each thread separately.
Quick Start
Add faketime as dependency and use faketime::unix_time
or
faketime::unix_time_as_millis
to get current time.
To fake time in test:
- Use
faketime::millis_tempfile
to create a temp timestamp file. - Enable faketime via
faketime::enable
in current thread.
To fake time in child threads:
- Use
faketime::millis_tempfile
to create a temp timestamp file. - Set child thread name to
FAKETIME=PATH
, where PATH is the path to the timestamp file.
To fake time of the generated binary, set the environment variable
echo 123456 > /tmp/faketime
FAKETIME=/tmp/faketime path/to/binary
