Duration of a second
Code | Description | Return type |
---|---|---|
(seconds 1) | Duration of a second | java.time.Duration |
(seconds 10) | Duration of 10 seconds | java.time.Duration |
(nanos 1200) | Duration of 1200 nanoseconds | java.time.Duration |
(days 100) | Duration of 100 days | java.time.Duration |
(period 100 :days) | Period of 100 days | java.time.Period |
(months 2) | Period of 2 months | java.time.Period |
Instances of other java.time
types are readily constructed with tick.
Example | Description | Return type |
---|---|---|
(day "mon") | Monday | java.time.DayOfWeek |
(month "August") | August | java.time.Month |
(month 12) | December | java.time.Month |
(year-month "2012-12") | December 2012 | java.time.YearMonth |
(year 1999) | The year 1999 | java.time.Year |
Add durations to durations
TBD |
TODO Don’t forget you can create zone-offsets from durations! |
TODO Don’t forget you can create instants from durations - this is often needed when you get Unix times (e.g. JWT OAuth2 tokens) |
The problem with numeric times is that there are cases where the units
are in seconds and cases where milliseconds are used. If tick were
to convert numbers to times, it would be a source of confusion and
bugs if the units were not clear. For this reason, you cannot convert
numbers to times. However, you can first create the duration from the
number, specifying the units explicitly, and then convert the duration
to an instant
(or inst
).
(instant (new-duration 1531467976048 :millis))
(inst (new-duration 1531468976 :seconds))
