usec

Converts anything* to microseconds and back.

Tired of implementing the same timestamp conversion functions in different projects under different names? I was, hence this tiny library.

Types

megaseconds()   :: non_neg_integer()
seconds()       :: non_neg_integer()
milliseconds()  :: non_neg_integer()
microseconds()  :: non_neg_integer()
now_timestamp() :: {megaseconds(), seconds(), microseconds()}

API

usec:from_msec/1  % Convert milliseconds() to microseconds().
usec:to_msec/1    % Convert microseconds() to milliseconds().

usec:from_now/1   % Convert now_timestamp() to microseconds().
usec:to_now/1     % Convert microseconds() to now_timestamp().

usec:from_sec/1   % Convert seconds() to microseconds().
usec:to_sec/1     % Convert microseconds() to seconds().

Other Info

This project uses rebar and the awesome universal erlang makefile by erlware.

• make compile compiles the library
• make dialyzer type-checks the code
• make doc builds the beautiful edoc documentation
• make test runs the unit tests, writes coverage report to .eunit/index.html
