Date Time Group parser

Go module (package dtg) for parsing and printing time.Time in Allied Communication Publication (ACP) 121 NATO Date Time Group (DTG) format.

Usage

Work in progress, more to come...

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"time"

)

func main() {
	shortDTG := `151337`
	longDTG := `151337JAPR31`
	err := dtg.Validate(shortDTG)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	err = dtg.Validate(longDTG)
	if err != nil {

	}
	sd, err := dtg.Parse(shortDTG)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	fmt.Println("Short DTG", shortDTG, "is represented in full as", sd.String())
	fmt.Println("DTG", shortDTG, "time is", sd.Time.Format(time.UnixDate))

	ld, err := dtg.Parse(longDTG)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)

	newDtg := &dtg.DTG{}
	newDtg.Time = time.Now()
	fmt.Println("DTG now in your time zone is", newDtg, "or", newDtg.Time.Format(time.UnixDate))
