Now

Now is a time toolkit for golang

Why the project named Now?

now.BeginningOfDay()

now is quite readable, aha?

But now is so common I can't search the project with my favorite search engine

• Star it in github https://github.com/jinzhu/now
• Search it with http://godoc.org

Usage

import "github.com/jinzhu/now"

time.Now() // 2013-11-18 17:51:49.123456789 Mon

// Use another time
t := time.Date(2013, 02, 18, 17, 51, 49, 123456789, time.Now().Location())
now.New(t).EndOfMonth()   // 2013-02-28 23:59:59.999999999 Thu


// Don't want be bothered with the First Day setting, Use Monday, Sunday
now.Monday()              // 2013-11-18 00:00:00 Mon
now.Sunday()              // 2013-11-24 00:00:00 Sun (Next Sunday)
now.EndOfSunday()         // 2013-11-24 23:59:59.999999999 Sun (End of next Sunday)

t := time.Date(2013, 11, 24, 17, 51, 49, 123456789, time.Now().Location()) // 2013-11-24 17:51:49.123456789 Sun
now.New(t).Monday()       // 2013-11-18 00:00:00 Sun (Last Monday if today is Sunday)
now.New(t).Sunday()       // 2013-11-24 00:00:00 Sun (Beginning Of Today if today is Sunday)
now.New(t).EndOfSunday()  // 2013-11-24 23:59:59.999999999 Sun (End of Today if today is Sunday)

Parse String

time.Now() // 2013-11-18 17:51:49.123456789 Mon

// Parse(string) (time.Time, error)
t, err := now.Parse("12:20")            // 2013-11-18 12:20:00, nil
t, err := now.Parse("1999-12-12 12:20") // 1999-12-12 12:20:00, nil
t, err := now.Parse("99:99")            // 2013-11-18 12:20:00, Can't parse string as time: 99:99

// MustParse(string) time.Time
now.MustParse("2013-01-13")             // 2013-01-13 00:00:00
now.MustParse("02-17")                  // 2013-02-17 00:00:00
now.MustParse("2-17")                   // 2013-02-17 00:00:00
now.MustParse("8")                      // 2013-11-18 08:00:00
now.MustParse("2002-10-12 22:14")       // 2002-10-12 22:14:00
now.MustParse("99:99")                  // panic: Can't parse string as time: 99:99

Extend now to support more formats is quite easy, just update TimeFormats variable with time.Format like time layout

now.TimeFormats = append(now.TimeFormats, "02 Jan 2006 15:04")

Please send me pull requests if you want a format to be supported officially
