The API is still subject to change. "Time::Moment" is an immutable object representing a date and time of day with an offset from UTC in the ISO 8601 calendar system. Time is measured in nanoseconds since "1970-01-01Z". In "Time:Moment" leap seconds are ignored. It is assumed that there are exactly "86,400,000,000" nanoseconds per day. "Time::Moment" can represent all epoch integers from "-62,135,596,800" to "2,534,02,300,799"; this range suffices to measure times to nanosecond precision for any instant that is within "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z" to "9999-12-31T23:59:59Z". CONSTRUCTORS now $tm = Time::Moment->now; Constructs an instance of "Time::Moment" that is set to the current date and time from the system clock in the system time zone, with the offset set to the system's time zone offset from UTC. now_utc $tm = Time::Moment->now_utc; Constructs an instance of "Time::Moment" that is set to the current date and time from the system clock in the UTC time zone. from_epoch $tm = Time::Moment->from_epoch($seconds); $tm = Time::Moment->from_epoch($seconds, $nanosecond); Constructs an instance of "Time::Moment" from the given *seconds* from the epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z. The optional parameter *nanosecond* specifies the nanosecond of the second [0, 999_999_999]. Fractional seconds is supported if the constructor is invoked with *seconds* only: $tm = Time::Moment->from_epoch(0.123456); # 1970-01-01T00:00:00.123456Z from_object $tm = Time::Moment->from_object($object); Constructs an instance of "Time::Moment" from the given *object*. If the given object is an instance of "Time::Moment" it's returned otherwise an attempt is made to coerce the given object to an instance of "Time::Moment". "Time::Moment" implements coercion handlers for the following object types: DateTime $tm = Time::Moment->from_object( DateTime->now ); The given "DateTime" object must be within the supported date range and must have a time zone or a time zone offset from UTC, coercing from the 'floating' time zone is not supported. Time::Piece $tm = Time::Moment->from_object( Time::Piece::localtime() ); The given "Time::Piece" object must be within the supported date range. The coercion scheme is extensible and implemented as documented in Params::Coerce: $tm = Params::Coerce::coerce('Time::Moment', Time::Piece::localtime()); $tm = Params::Coerce::coerce('Time::Moment', DateTime->now); "Time::Moment" also implements a coercion handler from "Time::Moment" to "DateTime": $dt = Params::Coerce::coerce('DateTime', Time::Moment->now); from_string $tm = Time::Moment->from_string($string); Constructs an instance of "Time::Moment" from the given *string*. The string must consist of a complete date representation and time of day followed by a time zone designator. The second part of the time of day may be omitted or have a decimal fraction. The following are examples of complete date representations and time of day representations: Basic format: Example: YYYYMMDDThhmmssZ 20121224T121530Z YYYYMMDDThhmmss±hhmm 20121224T121530+0100 YYYYMMDDThhmmss±hh 20121224T121530+01 YYYYMMDDThhmmss.ssZ 20121224T121530.500Z YYYYMMDDThhmmss.ss±hhmm 20121224T121530.500+0100 YYYYMMDDThhmmss.ss±hh 20121224T121530.500+01 YYYYMMDDThhmmZ 20121224T1215Z (reduced accuracy) YYYYMMDDThhmm±hhmm 20121224T1215+0100 (reduced accuracy) YYYYMMDDThhmm±hh 20121224T1215+01 (reduced accuracy) Extended format: Example: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ 2012-12-24T12:15:30Z YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss±hh:mm 2012-12-24T12:15:30+01:00 YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss±hh 2012-12-24T12:15:30+01 YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.ssZ 2012-12-24T12:15:30.500Z YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.ss±hh:mm 2012-12-24T12:15:30.500+01:00 YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.ss±hh 2012-12-24T12:15:30.500+01 YYYY-MM-DDThh:mmZ 2012-12-24T12:15Z (reduced accuracy) YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm±hh:mm 2012-12-24T12:15+01:00 (reduced accuracy) YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm±hh 2012-12-24T12:15+01 (reduced accuracy) Where representations using calendar dates are shown, ordinal dates or week dates may be substituted.

Example: Mon, Tue, ..., Sun. %A Replaced by the C locale's full day of the week name. Example: Monday, Tuesday, ..., Sunday. %b Replaced by the C locale's abbreviated month name. Example: Jan, Feb, ..., Dec. %B Replaced by the C locale's full month name. Example: January, February, ..., December. %c Replaced by the C locale's date and time representation.

This conversion specification permits use of an optional maximum field width [0, 9] where the default field width of 0 will use the shortest representation. Example: %f or %0f is replaced by one of the following if fractional seconds are present (shortest representation): .fff (millisecond) .ffffff (microsecond) .fffffffff (nanosecond) %4f is replaced by decimal point and exactly four fractional digits (zero-padded on the right or truncated if needed) if fractional seconds are present: .ffff *This conversion specification is an extension to the "IEEE Std 1003.1" *. %F Equivalent to "%Y-%m-%d". %g Replaced by the last 2 digits of the year of the week as a decimal number [00, 99]. %G Replaced by the week-based year as a decimal number [0001, 9999]. %h Equivalent to %b. %H Replaced by the hour of day (24-hour clock) as a decimal number [00, 23]. %I Replaced by the hour of day (12-hour clock) as a decimal number [01, 12]. %j Replaced by the day of the year as a decimal number [001, 366]. %k Replaced by the hour of day (24-hour clock) as a decimal number [1, 23]; a single digit is preceded by a space. *This conversion specification is an extension to the "IEEE Std 1003.1" *. %l Replaced by the hour of day (12-hour clock) as a decimal number [1, 12]; a single digit is preceded by a space. *This conversion specification is an extension to the "IEEE Std 1003.1" *. %m Replaced by the month of the year as a decimal number [01, 12]. %M Replaced by the minute of hour as a decimal number [00, 59]. %n Replaced by a character. %N Replaced by the fractional second as a decimal number.

Both January 4th and the first Thursday of January are always in week 1. %W Replaced by the week number of the year as a decimal number [00, 53]. The first Monday of January is the first day of week 1; days in the new year before this are in week 0. %x Replaced by the C locale's date representation.

OVERLOADED OPERATORS stringification $string = "$tm"; The $string will be in one of the following representations: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.fff YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.ffffff YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.fffffffff Followed by a zone designator in one of the following representations: Z ±hh:mm The shortest representation will be used where the omitted parts are implied to be zero. This representation is conformant with ISO 8601 profiles, such as: * RFC 3339 Date and Time on the Internet: Timestamps * RFC 4287 The Atom Syndication Format * W3C Date and Time Formats * HTML5 * XML Schema The "to_string" method or the "strftime" format string "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%f%Z" produces an equivalent string representation: "$tm" eq $tm->to_string; "$tm" eq $tm->strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%f%Z"); The total length of the string representation will be between 20 and 35 characters (inclusive). comparison $integer = $tm1 <=> $tm2; $boolean = $tm1 == $tm2; $boolean = $tm1 != $tm2; $boolean = $tm1 < $tm2; $boolean = $tm1 > $tm2; $boolean = $tm1 <= $tm2; $boolean = $tm1 >= $tm2; SERIALIZATION Storable The serialized representation of a "Time::Moment" is a string of 16 bytes that contains MAGIC (2 bytes), time zone offset from UTC (2 bytes), the number of days from Rata Die (4 bytes), second of the day (4 bytes) and nanosecond of the second (4 bytes). The total size of the serialized "Time::Moment" instance using "nfreeze" is 30 bytes. JSON "Time::Moment" implements a "TO_JSON" method that returns the stringified representation of the instance. CBOR "Time::Moment" implements a "TO_CBOR" method that stores the stringified representation of the instance as a *standard date/time string* using tag 0. See CBOR::XS, RFC 7049 Section 2.4.1 and "eg/cbor.pl" for an example how to roundtrip instances of "Time::Moment".
