Overview

This file contains the OpenC3 specific additions to the Ruby Time class

Time is expressed in many different ways and with many different epochs. This file supports the following formats:

Julian Date (jd or julian)
Modified Julian Date (mjd)
yds (year, day, and seconds of day)
mdy (year, month, day, hour, minute, second, us of second)
ccsds (day, ms, us from Jan 1, 1958 midnight)
time (a ruby time object with unix epoch Jan 1, 1970 midnight)
sec (seconds since an arbitrary epoch)

JULIAN_DAYS_PER_CENTURY =

There are 365.25 days per year because of leap years. In the Gregorian calendar some centuries have 36524 days because of the divide by 400 rule while others have 36525 days. The Julian century is DEFINED as having 36525 days.

.init_epoch_delta(epoch) ⇒ Float

Ruby time objects cannot handle times before the Unix Epoch. Calculate a delta (in seconds) to be used when real epochs are before the Unix Epoch. Each received timestamp will be adjusted by this delta so a ruby time object can be used to parse the time.

Parameters:

    epoch is a string in the following format: "yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss"

Returns:

  • (Float)
