tempus

An implementation of some Moment.js features for parsing, manipulates and displaying dates in Dart.

Usage

A simple usage example:

import 'package:tempus/tempus.dart';

main() {
    Duration secondsToAdd = new Duration(seconds: 10);
    DateTime dateForComparison = new DateTime.now().add(secondsToAdd);
    Tempus tempus = new Tempus();

    // Will print "in a few seconds"
    print(tempus.from(Tempus.fromDate(dateForComparison)));

    // Will generate a list with 35 DateTimes, perfect for creating
    // calendar grids. By default starts on Sunday, can be Monday.
    DateTime randomDate = new DateTime(2018, 10);
    List<DateTime> dateGrid = Tempus.daysInMonth(randomDate, startOnMonday: true);
}

Locales

Set the locale for all usages of `Tempus`:

Tempus.globalLocale(new LocaleDE());

Set the locale only for the current instance of `Tempus`:

Tempus tempus = new Tempus.now().locale(new LocaleDE());

Adding your own locale:

Just create a class that implements ILocale and assign that to your Tempus instance or set it globally.

Overwriting existing locales:

class ShortLocaleEn extends LocaleEN {
  String get seconds => '%is';

  String get aMinute => '%im';
  String get minutes => '%im';

  String get anHour => '%ih';
  String get hours => '%ih';

  String get aDay => '%id';
  String get days => '%id';
}
