Time Ranges Go Reference Go codecov

Package trn introduces a Range type with useful methods to perform complex operations over time ranges.

Install and update

go get -u github.com/cappuccinotm/trn

Usage

rng := trn.New(time.Now(), 3 * time.Hour, trn.In(time.UTC))

betweenRng := trn.Between(time.Now(), time.Now().Add(3 * time.Hour), trn.In(time.UTC))

For more examples see test file.

Todo

  • Make UTC and opts tests work in UTC location

Methods

  • func New(start time.Time, duration time.Duration, opts ...Option) Range

    Creates a new Range with start at the given time and with the given duration.

  • func Between(start, end time.Time, opts ...Option) (Range, error)

    Creates a new Range within the given time range. Between uses the location of the start time for the range. Returns ErrStartAfterEnd if the start time is later than the end.

  • func (r Range) Stratify(duration time.Duration, interval time.Duration) ([]Range, error)

    Slices the range into smaller ones with fixed duration and fixed interval between their starts. In case if the last interval doesn't fit into the given duration, Stratify won't return it. Returns ErrZeroDurationInterval if the provided duration or interval is less or equal to zero.

  • func (r Range) Split(duration time.Duration, interval time.Duration) ([]Range, error)

    Slices the range into smaller ones with fixed duration and fixed interval between the end of the one range and start of next range. In case if the last interval doesn't fit into the given duration, Split won't return it. Returns ErrZeroDurationInterval if the provided duration is less or equal to zero.

  • func (r Range) Truncate(bounds Range) Range

    Cuts the start and the end of the range to fit the given bounds.

  • MergeOverlappingRanges(ranges []Range) []Range

  • func (r Range) Flip(ranges []Range) []Range

    Flips the given ranges within the given period (r).

    The boundaries of the given ranges are considered to be inclusive, which means that the flipped ranges will start or end at the exact nanosecond where the boundary from the input starts or ends.

    Note: for the sake of safety, ranges are being merged before flip to ensure the correct working of method.

  • func Intersection(ranges []Range) Range

    Returns the range, which is common for all the given ranges.

There are some other non-algorithmic methods, which you can see in the reference.

Details

String method formats the range in format [start time, end time], where the times are formatted with the next template:

const defaultRangeFmt = "2006-01-02 15:04:05.999999999 -0700 MST"

Status

The code was extracted from existing project and still under development. Until v1.x released the API may change.
