``Period`` types represent discrete, human representations of time.
.. type:: CompoundPeriod .. Docstring generated from Julia source A ``CompoundPeriod`` is useful for expressing time periods that are not a fixed multiple of smaller periods. For example, "a year and a day" is not a fixed number of days, but can be expressed using a ``CompoundPeriod``\ . In fact, a ``CompoundPeriod`` is automatically generated by addition of different period types, e.g. ``Year(1) + Day(1)`` produces a ``CompoundPeriod`` result.
.. data:: Instant ``Instant`` types represent integer-based, machine representations of time as continuous timelines starting from an epoch.
.. data:: UTInstant{T}
The ``UTInstant`` represents a machine timeline based on UT time (1 day = one revolution of the earth). The ``T`` is a ``Period`` parameter that indicates the resolution or precision of the instant.
.. data:: TimeType ``TimeType`` types wrap ``Instant`` machine instances to provide human representations of the machine instant. Both ``DateTime`` and ``Date`` are subtypes of ``TimeType``.
.. data:: DateTime
``DateTime`` wraps a ``UTInstant{Millisecond}`` and interprets it according to the proleptic Gregorian calendar.
.. data:: Date
``Date`` wraps a ``UTInstant{Day}`` and interprets it according to the proleptic Gregorian calendar.
All Dates functions are defined in the Dates module; note that only the Date, DateTime, and now functions are exported;
to use all other Dates functions, you'll need to prefix each function call with an explicit Dates., e.g. Dates.dayofweek(dt).
Alternatively, you can write using Base.Dates to bring all exported functions into Main to be used without the Dates. prefix.
.. function:: DateTime(y, [m, d, h, mi, s, ms]) -> DateTime .. Docstring generated from Julia source Construct a ``DateTime`` type by parts. Arguments must be convertible to ``Int64``\ .
.. function:: DateTime(periods::Period...) -> DateTime .. Docstring generated from Julia source Construct a ``DateTime`` type by ``Period`` type parts. Arguments may be in any order. DateTime parts not provided will default to the value of ``Dates.default(period)``\ .
.. function:: DateTime(f::Function, y[, m, d, h, mi, s]; step=Day(1), negate=false, limit=10000) -> DateTime .. Docstring generated from Julia source Create a ``DateTime`` through the adjuster API. The starting point will be constructed from the provided ``y, m, d...`` arguments, and will be adjusted until ``f::Function`` returns ``true``\ . The step size in adjusting can be provided manually through the ``step`` keyword. If ``negate=true``\ , then the adjusting will stop when ``f::Function`` returns ``false`` instead of ``true``\ . ``limit`` provides a limit to the max number of iterations the adjustment API will pursue before throwing an error (in the case that ``f::Function`` is never satisfied).
.. function:: DateTime(dt::Date) -> DateTime .. Docstring generated from Julia source Converts a ``Date`` to a ``DateTime``\ . The hour, minute, second, and millisecond parts of the new ``DateTime`` are assumed to be zero.
.. function:: DateTime(dt::AbstractString, format::AbstractString; locale="english") -> DateTime .. Docstring generated from Julia source Construct a ``DateTime`` by parsing the ``dt`` date string following the pattern given in the ``format`` string. The following character codes can be used to construct the ``format`` string: +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Code | Matches | Comment | +==============+===========+================================================================+ | ``y`` | 1996, 96 | Returns year of 1996, 0096 | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``Y`` | 1996, 96 | Returns year of 1996, 0096. Equivalent to ``y`` | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``m`` | 1, 01 | Matches 1 or 2-digit months | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``u`` | Jan | Matches abbreviated months according to the ``locale`` keyword | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``U`` | January | Matches full month names according to the ``locale`` keyword | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``d`` | 1, 01 | Matches 1 or 2-digit days | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``H`` | 00 | Matches hours | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``M`` | 00 | Matches minutes | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``S`` | 00 | Matches seconds | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``s`` | .500 | Matches milliseconds | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``e`` | Mon, Tues | Matches abbreviated days of the week | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``E`` | Monday | Matches full name days of the week | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``yyyymmdd`` | 19960101 | Matches fixed-width year, month, and day | +--------------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------------------+ Characters not listed above are normally treated as delimiters between date and time slots. For example a ``dt`` string of "1996-01-15T00:00:00.0" would have a ``format`` string like "y-m-dTH:M:S.s". If you need to use a code character as a delimiter you can escape it using backslash. The date "1995y01m" would have the format "y\\ym\\m".
.. function:: format(dt::TimeType, format::AbstractString; locale="english") -> AbstractString .. Docstring generated from Julia source Construct a string by using a ``TimeType`` object and applying the provided ``format``\ . The following character codes can be used to construct the ``format`` string: +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | Code | Examples | Comment | +=======+==========+=============================================================+ | ``y`` | 6 | Numeric year with a fixed width | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``Y`` | 1996 | Numeric year with a minimum width | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``m`` | 1, 12 | Numeric month with a minimum width | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``u`` | Jan | Month name shortened to 3-chars according to the ``locale`` | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``U`` | January | Full month name according to the ``locale`` keyword | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``d`` | 1, 31 | Day of the month with a minimum width | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``H`` | 0, 23 | Hour (24-hour clock) with a minimum width | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``M`` | 0, 59 | Minute with a minimum width | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``S`` | 0, 59 | Second with a minimum width | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``s`` | 000, 500 | Millisecond with a minimum width of 3 | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``e`` | Mon, Tue | Abbreviated days of the week | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``E`` | Monday | Full day of week name | +-------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ The number of sequential code characters indicate the width of the code. A format of ``yyyy-mm`` specifies that the code ``y`` should have a width of four while ``m`` a width of two. Codes that yield numeric digits have an associated mode: fixed-width or minimum-width. The fixed-width mode left-pads the value with zeros when it is shorter than the specified width and truncates the value when longer. Minimum-width mode works the same as fixed-width except that it does not truncate values longer than the width. When creating a ``format`` you can use any non-code characters as a separator. For example to generate the string "1996-01-15T00:00:00" you could use ``format``\ : "yyyy-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS". Note that if you need to use a code character as a literal you can use the escape character backslash. The string "1996y01m" can be produced with the format "yyyy\\ymm\\m".
.. function:: DateFormat(format::AbstractString, locale::AbstractString="english") -> DateFormat .. Docstring generated from Julia source Construct a date formatting object that can be used for parsing date strings or formatting a date object as a string.

.. function:: Date(period::Period...) -> Date .. Docstring generated from Julia source Construct a ``Date`` type by ``Period`` type parts. Arguments may be in any order. ``Date`` parts not provided will default to the value of ``Dates.default(period)``\ .
.. function:: Date(f::Function, y[, m, d]; step=Day(1), negate=false, limit=10000) -> Date .. Docstring generated from Julia source Create a ``Date`` through the adjuster API. The starting point will be constructed from the provided ``y, m, d`` arguments, and will be adjusted until ``f::Function`` returns ``true``\ . The step size in adjusting can be provided manually through the ``step`` keyword. If ``negate=true``\ , then the adjusting will stop when ``f::Function`` returns ``false`` instead of ``true``\ . ``limit`` provides a limit to the max number of iterations the adjustment API will pursue before throwing an error (given that ``f::Function`` is never satisfied).
.. function:: Date(dt::DateTime) -> Date .. Docstring generated from Julia source Converts a ``DateTime`` to a ``Date``\ . The hour, minute, second, and millisecond parts of the ``DateTime`` are truncated, so only the year, month and day parts are used in construction.

Docstring generated from Julia source Adjusts ``dt`` to the next day of week corresponding to ``dow`` with ``1 = Monday, 2 = Tuesday, etc``\ . Setting ``same=true`` allows the current ``dt`` to be considered as the next ``dow``\ , allowing for no adjustment to occur.
.. function:: toprev(dt::TimeType,dow::Int;same::Bool=false) -> TimeType .. Docstring generated from Julia source Adjusts ``dt`` to the previous day of week corresponding to ``dow`` with ``1 = Monday, 2 = Tuesday, etc``\ .

.. function:: toprev(func::Function,dt::TimeType;step=Day(-1),negate=false,limit=10000,same=false) -> TimeType .. Docstring generated from Julia source Adjusts ``dt`` by iterating at most ``limit`` iterations by ``step`` increments until ``func`` returns ``true``\ . ``func`` must take a single ``TimeType`` argument and return a ``Bool``\ . ``same`` allows ``dt`` to be considered in satisfying ``func``\ . ``negate`` will make the adjustment process terminate when ``func`` returns ``false`` instead of ``true``\ .

``func`` takes a single TimeType argument and returns a ``Bool`` indicating whether the input should be "included" in the final set. ``recur`` applies ``func`` over each element in the range of ``dr``\ , including those elements for which ``func`` returns ``true`` in the resulting Array, unless ``negate=true``\ , then only elements where ``func`` returns ``false`` are included.
.. data:: Year(v)
Month(v)
Week(v)
Day(v)
Hour(v)
Minute(v)
Second(v)
Millisecond(v)
Construct a ``Period`` type with the given ``v`` value. Input must be losslessly convertible to an ``Int64``\ .
.. function:: CompoundPeriod(periods) -> CompoundPeriod
.. Docstring generated from Julia source
Construct a ``CompoundPeriod`` from a ``Vector`` of ``Period``\ s. The constructor will automatically simplify the periods into a canonical form according to the following rules:
* All ``Period``\ s of the same type will be added together
* Any ``Period`` large enough be partially representable by a coarser ``Period`` will be broken into multiple ``Period``\ s (eg. ``Hour(30)`` becomes ``Day(1) + Hour(6)``\ )
* ``Period``\ s with opposite signs will be combined when possible (eg. ``Hour(1) - Day(1)`` becomes ``-Hour(23)``\ )
Due to the canonicalization, ``CompoundPeriod`` is also useful for converting time periods into more human-comprehensible forms.
**Examples**
.. code-block:: julia
julia> Dates.CompoundPeriod([Dates.Hour(12), Dates.Hour(13)])
1 day, 1 hour
julia> Dates.CompoundPeriod([Dates.Hour(-1), Dates.Minute(1)])
-59 minutes
julia> Dates.CompoundPeriod([Dates.Month(1), Dates.Week(-2)])
1 month, -2 weeks
julia> Dates.CompoundPeriod(Dates.Minute(50000)))
4 weeks, 6 days, 17 hours, 20 minutes
.. function:: default(p::Period) -> Period .. Docstring generated from Julia source Returns a sensible "default" value for the input Period by returning ``one(p)`` for Year, Month, and Day, and ``zero(p)`` for Hour, Minute, Second, and Millisecond.
Date and DateTime values can be rounded to a specified resolution (e.g., 1 month
or 15 minutes) with floor, ceil, or round.
.. function:: floor(dt::TimeType, p::Period) -> TimeType
.. Docstring generated from Julia source
Returns the nearest ``Date`` or ``DateTime`` less than or equal to ``dt`` at resolution ``p``\ .
For convenience, ``p`` may be a type instead of a value: ``floor(dt, Dates.Hour)`` is a shortcut for ``floor(dt, Dates.Hour(1))``\ .
.. doctest::
julia> floor(Date(1985, 8, 16), Dates.Month)
1985-08-01
julia> floor(DateTime(2013, 2, 13, 0, 31, 20), Dates.Minute(15))

2016-08-06T00:00:00
.. function:: ceil(dt::TimeType, p::Period) -> TimeType
.. Docstring generated from Julia source
Returns the nearest ``Date`` or ``DateTime`` greater than or equal to ``dt`` at resolution ``p``\ .

.. doctest::
julia> ceil(Date(1985, 8, 16), Dates.Month)
1985-09-01
julia> ceil(DateTime(2013, 2, 13, 0, 31, 20), Dates.Minute(15))
2013-02-13T00:45:00
julia> ceil(DateTime(2016, 8, 6, 12, 0, 0), Dates.Day)
2016-08-07T00:00:00
.. function:: round(dt::TimeType, p::Period, [r::RoundingMode]) -> TimeType
.. Docstring generated from Julia source
Returns the ``Date`` or ``DateTime`` nearest to ``dt`` at resolution ``p``\ . By default (``RoundNearestTiesUp``\ ), ties (e.g., rounding 9:30 to the nearest hour) will be rounded up.
For convenience, ``p`` may be a type instead of a value: ``round(dt, Dates.Hour)`` is a shortcut for ``round(dt, Dates.Hour(1))``\ .
.. doctest::
julia> round(Date(1985, 8, 16), Dates.Month)
1985-08-01
julia> round(DateTime(2013, 2, 13, 0, 31, 20), Dates.Minute(15))
2013-02-13T00:30:00
julia> round(DateTime(2016, 8, 6, 12, 0, 0), Dates.Day)
2016-08-07T00:00:00
