Constructor Details

#initialize(spec, since: nil, offset: nil, format: nil, calendar: "standard", tz: nil) ⇒ TimeStep

Constructs the object.

The argument spec specifies the time step definition, which has the form,

"<INTERVAL> since <TIME>"

For example,

* "second since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +00:00" 
* "hour since 2001-01-01 00:00:00 JST" 
* "3 days since 2001-01-01 00:00:00 +00:00" 
* "10 years since 1901-01-01 00:00:00 +00:00"

The symbol for time unit symbols should be one of

* ayears, ayear (astronomical year: 365.242198781 day)
* years, year
* months, month
* days, day, d
* hours, hour, hrs, hr, h
* minutes, minute, mins, min
* seconds, second, secs, sec, s
* milliseconds, millisecond, msecs, msec, ms
* microseconds, microsecond

If you have already origin time object or general date string, you can use since option,

TimeStep.new("3 hours", since: time)
TimeStep.new("3 hours", since: "2001010121", format: '%Y%m%d%H')

When origin time is specified in both ‘spec’ and ‘since’ option, the origin time in ‘spec’ has priority. If origin time is not specified in neither ‘spec’ and ‘since’ option, the default value is set to the origin time (“0000-01-01 00:00:00” for date and “1970-01-01 00:00:00” for time). The time offset from UTC can be set by ‘offset’ option. The option calendar specifies the name of calendar for datetime calculation,

* "standard", "gregorian"      -> DateTime with Date::ITALY as start
* "proleptic_gregorian"        -> DateTime with Date::GREGORIAN as start
* "proleptic_julian", "julian" -> DateTime with Date::JULIAN as start
* "noleap", "365_day"          -> DateTimeNoLeap
* "allleap", "366_day"         -> DateTimeAllLeap
* "360_day"                    -> DateTimeFixed360Day

Parameters:

  • spec (String) —

    timestep specification

  • since (DateTime, String) (defaults to: nil)
  • offset (Numeric, String) (defaults to: nil) —

    offset in origin time

  • format (String) (defaults to: nil) —

    template string for strptime for parsing time

  • calendar (String, TimeStep::Calendar) (defaults to: "standard")

Examples:

ts = TimeStep.new("days since 2001-01-01 00:00:00")
ts.time_at(0)
# => #<DateTime: 2001-01-01T00:00:00+00:00 ...>
ts.time_at(14)
# => #<DateTime: 2001-01-15T00:00:00+00:00 ...>

Parameters:

  • indices (Array<Numeric>)

#to(other) ⇒ TimeStep::Pair

Creates new timestep pair object which refers other from self

Examples:

days = TimeStep.new("days since 2001-01-01 00:00:00")
hours = TimeStep.new("hours since 2001-01-01 00:00:00")
pair = days.to(hours)
pair.forward(1)
# => 24

Parameters:

Returns:

def to (other)
  return Pair.new(self, other)
end

#truncate(time) ⇒ DateTime

Truncate the given datetime to the unit of the object.

Examples:

hours = TimeStep.new("hours since 2001-01-01 00:00:00")
hours.truncate("2001-01-15 12:35:00")
# => #<DateTime: 2001-01-15T12:00:00+00:00 ...>

days = TimeStep.new("days since 2001-01-01 00:00:00")
days.truncate("2001-01-15 12:00:00")
# => #<DateTime: 2001-01-15T00:00:00+00:00 ...>

months = TimeStep.new("months since 2001-01-01 00:00:00")
months.truncate("2001-05-15 12:00:00")
# => #<DateTime: 2001-05-01T00:00:00+00:00 ...>
