Simple and easy to use date & time-related utility functions
Project description
Chronos
Simple and easy to use time-related utility functions.
These are simple routines we caught ourselves constantly in need when developing projects in Hackt. They're all a combination of native Python libraries that we wanted to standardize in a standlone library.
Usage
Install from PyPI:
pip install python_chronos
Import in your project(s):
import chronos
Get current UTC timestamp (datetime
type)
chronos.utc_now()
# datetime.datetime(2021, 2, 2, 3, 59, 11, 856368)
UTC timestamp (integer
type)
chronos.utc_timestamp()
# 1612238428
Past/Future UTC (datetime
type)
The following function adds 10 minutes to the current UTC datetime:
chronos.future_utc_datetime(minutes=10)
# datetime.datetime(2021, 2, 2, 4, 14, 3, 573054)
Similarly, the past_utc_datetime
function does exactly what you have in mind:
chronos.past_utc_datetime(minutes=10)
# datetime.datetime(2021, 2, 2, 3, 54, 3, 573054)
Any keyword arguments you would pass to datetime.timedelta
will work with future_utc_datetime
and past_utc_datetime
.
Past/Future UTC in UNIX timestamp (integer
type)
chronos.future_utc_timestamp(hours=2)
# 1612246043
Analogously, the past_utc_timestamp
function will do exactly what you expect:
chronos.past_utc_timestamp(hours=2)
# 1612238843
Again, any keyword arguments you would pass to datetime.timedelta
will work with future_utc_timestamp
and past_utc_timestamp
.
