Implementations

impl Epoch

pub fn to_gregorian_str(&self, time_scale: TimeScale) -> String

Converts the Epoch to Gregorian in the provided time scale and in the ISO8601 format with the time scale appended to the string

pub fn to_gregorian_utc(&self) -> (i32, u8, u8, u8, u8, u8, u32)

Converts the Epoch to the Gregorian UTC equivalent as (year, month, day, hour, minute, second, nanoseconds).

Example

use hifitime::Epoch;

let dt_tai = Epoch::from_tai_parts(1, 537582752000000000);

let dt_str = "2017-01-14T00:31:55 UTC";
let dt = Epoch::from_gregorian_str(dt_str).unwrap();

let (y, m, d, h, min, s, _) = dt_tai.to_gregorian_utc();
assert_eq!(y, 2017);
assert_eq!(m, 1);
assert_eq!(d, 14);
assert_eq!(h, 0);
assert_eq!(min, 31);
assert_eq!(s, 55);
#[cfg(feature = "std")]
{
assert_eq!("2017-01-14T00:31:55 UTC", format!("{dt_tai:?}"));
// dt_tai is initialized from TAI, so the default print is the Gregorian in that time system
assert_eq!("2017-01-14T00:32:32 TAI", format!("{dt_tai}"));
// But dt is initialized from UTC, so the default print and the debug print are both in UTC.
assert_eq!("2017-01-14T00:31:55 UTC", format!("{dt}"));
}

pub fn to_gregorian_tai(&self) -> (i32, u8, u8, u8, u8, u8, u32)

pub fn from_gregorian_str(s_in: &str) -> Result<Epoch, HifitimeError>

Converts a Gregorian date time in ISO8601 or RFC3339 format into an Epoch, accounting for the time zone designator and the time scale.

Definition

1. Time Zone Designator: this is either a Z (lower or upper case) to specify UTC, or an offset in hours and minutes off of UTC, such as +01:00 for UTC plus one hour and zero minutes.
2. Time system (or time “scale”): UTC, TT, TAI, TDB, ET, etc.

Converts an ISO8601 or RFC3339 datetime representation to an Epoch. If no time scale is specified, then UTC is assumed. A time scale may be specified in addition to the format unless The T which separates the date from the time can be replaced with a single whitespace character (\W). The offset is also optional, cf. the examples below.

Example

use hifitime::Epoch;
let dt = Epoch::from_gregorian_utc(2017, 1, 14, 0, 31, 55, 0);
assert_eq!(
    dt,
    Epoch::from_gregorian_str("2017-01-14T00:31:55 UTC").unwrap()
);

    dt,
    Epoch::from_gregorian_str("2017-01-14T00:31:55.0000 UTC").unwrap()
);
assert_eq!(
    dt,
    Epoch::from_gregorian_str("2017-01-14T00:31:55").unwrap()
);
assert_eq!(
    dt,
    Epoch::from_gregorian_str("2017-01-14 00:31:55").unwrap()
);
// Regression test for #90

    Epoch::from_gregorian_str("2017-01-14 00:31:55.8112 UTC").unwrap()
);
// Example from https://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime

pub fn from_et_duration(duration_since_j2000: Duration) -> Epoch

Initializes an Epoch from the duration between J2000 and the current epoch as per NAIF SPICE.

Limitation

This method uses a Newton Raphson iteration to find the appropriate TAI duration. This method is only accuracy to a few nanoseconds. Hence, when calling as_et_duration() and re-initializing it with from_et_duration you may have a few nanoseconds of difference (expect less than 10 ns).

Warning

The et2utc function of NAIF SPICE will assume that there are 9 leap seconds before 01 JAN 1972, as this date introduces 10 leap seconds. At the time of writing, this does not seem to be in line with IERS and the documentation in the leap seconds list.

In order to match SPICE, the as_et_duration() function will manually get rid of that difference.

pub fn from_tdb_seconds(seconds_j2000: f64) -> Epoch

Note that this constructor relies on 128 bit integer math and may be slow on embedded devices.

pub fn from_time_of_week_utc(week: u32, nanoseconds: u64) -> Epoch

Builds an Epoch from the provided year, days in the year, and a time scale.

Limitations

In the TDB or ET time scales, there may be an error of up to 750 nanoseconds when initializing an Epoch this way. This is because we first initialize the epoch in Gregorian scale and then apply the TDB/ET offset, but that offset actually depends on the precise time.

Day couting behavior

The day counter starts at 01, in other words, 01 January is day 1 of the counter, as per the GPS specificiations.

pub fn precise_timescale_conversion( &self, forward: bool, reference_epoch: Epoch, polynomial: Polynomial, target: TimeScale, ) -> Result<Epoch, HifitimeError>

Converts this Epoch into targeted TimeScale using provided Polynomial.

Input

• forward: whether this is forward or backward conversion. For example, using GPST-UTC Polynomial
  • GPST->UTC is the forward conversion
  • UTC->GPST is the backward conversion
• reference_epoch: any reference Epoch for the provided Polynomial.

While we support any time difference, it should remain short in pratice (a day at most, for precise applications).

• polynomial: that must be valid for this reference Epoch, used in the equation a0 + a1*dt + a2*dt² = GPST-UTC for example.
• target: targetted TimeScale we will transition to.

Example:

use hifitime::{Epoch, TimeScale, Polynomial, Unit};

// random GPST Epoch for forward conversion to UTC
let t_gpst = Epoch::from_gregorian(2020, 01, 01, 0, 0, 0, 0, TimeScale::GPST);

// Let's say we know the GPST-UTC polynomials for that day,
// They allow precise forward transition from GPST to UTC,
// and precise backward transition from UTC to GPST.
let gpst_utc_polynomials = Polynomial::from_constant_offset_nanoseconds(1.0);

// This is the reference [Epoch] attached to the publication of these polynomials.
// You should use polynomials that remain valid and were provided recently (usually one day at most).
// Example: polynomials were published 1 hour ago.
let gpst_reference = t_gpst - 1.0 * Unit::Hour;

// Forward conversion (to UTC) GPST - a0 + a1 *dt + a2*dt² = UTC
let t_utc = t_gpst.precise_timescale_conversion(true, gpst_reference, gpst_utc_polynomials, TimeScale::UTC)
    .unwrap();

// Verify we did transition to UTC
assert_eq!(t_utc.time_scale, TimeScale::UTC);

// Verify the resulting [Epoch] is the coarse GPST->UTC transition + fine correction
let reversed = t_utc.to_time_scale(TimeScale::GPST) + 1.0 * Unit::Nanosecond;
assert_eq!(reversed, t_gpst);

// Apply the backward transition, from t_utc back to t_gpst.
// The timescale conversion works both ways: (from UTC) GPST = UTC + a0 + a1 *dt + a2*dt²
let backwards = t_utc.precise_timescale_conversion(false, gpst_reference, gpst_utc_polynomials, TimeScale::GPST)
    .unwrap();

assert_eq!(backwards, t_gpst);

// It is important to understand that your reference point does not have to be in the past.
// The only logic that should prevail is to always minimize interpolation gap.
// In other words, if you can access future interpolation information that would minimize the data gap, they should prevail.

where L: LeapSecondProvider,

Get the accumulated number of leap seconds up to this Epoch from the provided LeapSecondProvider. Returns None if the epoch is before 1960, year at which UTC was defined.

Why does this function return an Option when the other returns a value

This is to match the iauDat function of SOFA (src/dat.c). That function will return a warning and give up if the start date is before 1960.

pub const fn from_duration(duration: Duration, ts: TimeScale) -> Epoch

Creates an epoch from given duration expressed in given timescale, i.e. since the given time scale’s reference epoch.

For example, if the duration is 1 day and the time scale is Ephemeris Time, then this will create an epoch of 2000-01-02 at midnight ET. If the duration is 1 day and the time scale is TAI, this will create an epoch of 1900-01-02 at noon, because the TAI reference epoch in Hifitime is chosen to be the J1900 epoch. In case of ET, TDB Timescales, a duration since J2000 is expected.

pub fn to_tdb_duration(&self) -> Duration

Returns the Dynamics Barycentric Time (TDB) as a high precision Duration since J2000

Algorithm

Given the embedded sine functions in the equation to compute the difference between TDB and TAI from the number of TDB seconds past J2000, one cannot solve the revert the operation analytically. Instead, we iterate until the value no longer changes.

1. Assume that the TAI duration is in fact the TDB seconds from J2000.
2. Offset to J2000 because Epoch stores everything in the J1900 but the TDB duration is in J2000.
3. Compute the offset g due to the TDB computation with the current value of the TDB seconds (defined in step 1).
4. Subtract that offset to the latest TDB seconds and store this as a new candidate for the true TDB seconds value.
5. Compute the difference between this candidate and the previous one. If the difference is less than one nanosecond, stop iteration.
6. Set the new candidate as the TDB seconds since J2000 and loop until step 5 breaks the loop, or we’ve done five iterations.
7. At this stage, we have a good approximation of the TDB seconds since J2000.
8. Reverse the algorithm given that approximation: compute the g offset, compute the difference between TDB and TAI, add the TT offset (32.184 s), and offset by the difference between J1900 and J2000.

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Restrict a value to a certain interval.

impl PartialEq for Epoch

Equality only checks the duration since J1900 match in TAI, because this is how all of the epochs are referenced.

fn eq(&self, other: &Epoch) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl PartialOrd for Epoch

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &Epoch) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

fn lt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

fn le(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

fn gt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

fn ge(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the >= operator.

impl Pointer for Epoch

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Prints the Epoch in UNIX

impl Serialize for Epoch

fn serialize<S>( &self, serializer: S, ) -> Result<<S as Serializer>::Ok, <S as Serializer>::Error>

where S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl Sub<Duration> for Epoch

type Output = Epoch

impl TryFrom<Epoch> for Timestamp

Conversion fails if the resulting timestamp would not fit into a u64.

fn try_from(value: Epoch) -> Result<Self, Self::Error>

Conversion fails if the resulting timestamp would not fit into a u64.

type Error = <i128 as TryInto<u64>>::Error

The type returned in the event of a conversion error.

impl UpperExp for Epoch

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Prints the Epoch in ET

impl UpperHex for Epoch

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>
