Aion

Aion is a utility crate, inspired by rails, that allows you to write Duration and DateTime in a friendly way:

// Easily represent a chrono::Duration
let two_days = 2.days();
let attention_span = 1.seconds();

// Add or subtract durations from the current time (UTC)
let now = Utc::now();
let three_hours_from_now = now + 3.hours();
let two_hours_from_now = 2.hours().from_now();
let last_week = 7.days().ago(); // or 1.weeks().ago()

// More complex DateTimes can be represented using before() and after() methods
let christmas = Utc.ymd(2020, 12, 25).and_hms(0, 0, 0);
let two_weeks_before_christmas = 2.weeks().before(christmas);
let boxing_day = 1.days().after(christmas);

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml file:

[dependencies]
aion = "0.2"

Example

The example is located in example folder. You can run it by using

cargo run --example example

Limitations

Currently this crate only will return DateTime<Utc>.

Acknowledgement

This crate is using chrono. Thanks for this awesome crate.

You can’t perform that action at this time.
