NAME

DateTime::DST - make localtime[8] available as is-dst()

SYNOPSIS

use DateTime::DST;

my $non-dst = DateTime.new(:2016year, :1month, :15day, :0hour, :0minute, :0second);
my $dst     = DateTime.new(:2016year, :6month, :15day, :0hour, :0minute, :0second);

say is-dst($non-dst);         # False
say is-dst($non-dst.Instant); # False
say is-dst($non-dst.posix);   # False

say is-dst($dst);             # True
say is-dst($dst.Instant);     # True
say is-dst($dst.posix);       # True

DESCRIPTION

This is nothing too fancy, just exports a function named is-dst which can be used to test for Daylight Savings Time from a DateTime object, an Int (expecting seconds since the start of the POSIX time_t epoch), or an Instant.

FUNCTIONS

is-dst

multi is-dst(Instant $time) returns Bool
multi is-dst(DateTime $time) returns Bool
multi is-dst(Int $time) returns Bool

Returns True if the C-standard library localtime function returns a true value for the DST flag or False otherwise. This is basically the same as localtime($time)[8] in Perl 5.
