[tick "0.3.5"]Liking cljdoc? Tell your friends :D
tick
A Clojure library for dealing with time.
Status
The latest master branch of tick is still a work-in-progress and is moving towards a stable alpha soon.
Install
Add to your lein or boot dependencies:
Development
with Clojure
REPL with nREPL server
clj -Adev
Port is written to .nrepl-port.
Run tests with:
clj -Atest -e deprecated
with ClojureScript
From the Clojure REPL type (node).
For testing, we are still using Leiningen:
lein doo node test
Discussion
The 'flow of time' complicates our systems and we can simplify them if we separate the concept of a timeline from the 'flow' of time we perceive.
For more information, see the author’s talk at ClojuTRE-2016 on The Universe As A Value where he argues that time is a perception.
Acknowledgements
Tick is based on the same original idea as Chime. The motivation is to be able to view timelines of remaining times while the schedule is running. Thanks to James Henderson for his work on Chime.
In particular, special credit to Eric Evans for discovering Allen’s interval algebra and pointing out its potential usefulness, demonstrating a working implementation of Allen’s ideas in his Clojure library.
Thanks also to my esteemed colleagues Patrik Kårlin for his redesign of the interval constructor function, and Henry Widd for porting to cljc.
