Timestamp

Build Status

Install

In order to install, you can either use pypi with either

pip3 install timestamps

or

python3 -m pip install timestamps

Usage

The library has several types defined

Timestamp

Represents a timestamp with a 10^-7 precision (same as the time.time() of python 3) You can instanciate it in various ways, each time, you can provide a non-keyword value or a value with as keyword either _float, _hex or _datetime, or with the methods from_float, from_hex and from_datetime Timestamps objects can ONLY represent POSITIVE timestamps.

# From the current time
t = Timestamp.now()

# With a float
t = Timestamp(1.0)
t = Timestamp.from_float(1.0)
t = Timestamp(_float=1.0) # WARNING: Discouraged, use Timestamp.from_float instead

# With a datetime
t = Timestamp(datetime.datetime.now())
t = Timestamp.from_datetime(datetime.datetime.now())
t = Timestamp(_datetime=datetime.datetime.now()) # WARNING: Discouraged, use Timestamp.from_datetime instead 

# With an hex
t = Timestamp(_hex='f')  # WARNING: Discouraged, use Timestamp.from_hex instead
t = Timestamp('0xf0')
t = Timestamp.from_hex('#FF')

# With another timestamp
t = Timestamp(Timestamp.now())

You can compare them with anything that can fit in the Timestamp initializator, namely floats, datetimes, and hex values.

Timestamp.now() < Timestamp.now()
time.time() < Timestamp.now()
'0xff' < Timestamp(time.time())
