tzif

A parser for Time Zone Information Format (TZif) files.

Also includes a parser for POSIX time-zone strings, which is used by the TZif parser, but also available separately.

Resources to generate TZif files are provided by the IANA database. TZif files are also included in some operating systems.

Examples

Parse TZif Files

use combine::{Parser, stream};
use std::fs::File;
use tzif::tzif;

let file = File::open("path_to_file").unwrap();
let stream = stream::buffered::Stream::new(
    stream::position::Stream::new(stream::read::Stream::new(file)),
    0, /* lookahead */
);
let data = tzif().parse(stream).unwrap();

Parse POSIX time-zone strings

use combine::Parser;
use tzif::posix_tz_string;

let data = posix_tz_string()
    .parse(b"WGT3WGST,M3.5.0/-2,M10.5.0/-1".as_slice())
    .unwrap();
