Public Class Methods

httpdate(date) click to toggle source

Parses date as HTTP-date defined by RFC 2616 and converts it to a Time object.

ArgumentError is raised if date is not compliant with RFC 2616 or Time class cannot represent specified date.

See httpdate for more information on this format.

iso8601(date) click to toggle source
Alias for: xmlschema
parse(date, now=Time.now) click to toggle source

Parses date using Date._parse and converts it to a Time object.

If a block is given, the year described in date is converted by the block. For example:

Time.parse(...) {|y| y < 100 ? (y >= 69 ? y + 1900 : y + 2000) : y}

If the upper components of the given time are broken or missing, they are supplied with those of now. For the lower components, the minimum values (1 or 0) are assumed if broken or missing. For example:

# Suppose it is "Thu Nov 29 14:33:20 GMT 2001" now and
# your timezone is GMT:
Time.parse("16:30")     #=> Thu Nov 29 16:30:00 GMT 2001
Time.parse("7/23")      #=> Mon Jul 23 00:00:00 GMT 2001
Time.parse("Aug 31")    #=> Fri Aug 31 00:00:00 GMT 2001

Since there are numerous conflicts among locally defined timezone abbreviations all over the world, this method is not made to understand all of them. For example, the abbreviation “CST” is used variously as:

-06:00 in America/Chicago,
-05:00 in America/Havana,
+08:00 in Asia/Harbin,
+09:30 in Australia/Darwin,
+10:30 in Australia/Adelaide,
etc.

Based on the fact, this method only understands the timezone abbreviations described in RFC 822 and the system timezone, in the order named. (i.e. a definition in RFC 822 overrides the system timezone definition.) The system timezone is taken from Time.local(year, 1, 1).zone and Time.local(year, 7, 1).zone. If the extracted timezone abbreviation does not match any of them, it is ignored and the given time is regarded as a local time.

ArgumentError is raised if Date._parse cannot extract information from date or Time class cannot represent specified date.

This method can be used as fail-safe for other parsing methods as:

Time.rfc2822(date) rescue Time.parse(date)
Time.httpdate(date) rescue Time.parse(date)
Time.xmlschema(date) rescue Time.parse(date)

A failure for ::parse should be checked, though.

rfc2822(date) click to toggle source

Parses date as date-time defined by RFC 2822 and converts it to a Time object. The format is identical to the date format defined by RFC 822 and updated by RFC 1123.

ArgumentError is raised if date is not compliant with RFC 2822 or Time class cannot represent specified date.

See rfc2822 for more information on this format.

Parses date as dateTime defined by XML Schema and converts it to a Time object. The format is restricted version of the format defined by ISO 8601.

ArgumentError is raised if date is not compliant with the format or Time class cannot represent specified date.

Public Instance Methods

httpdate() click to toggle source

Returns a string which represents the time as rfc1123-date of HTTP-date defined by RFC 2616:

day-of-week, DD month-name CCYY hh:mm:ss GMT

Note that the result is always UTC (GMT).

end

where zone is [+-]hhmm.

If self is a UTC time, -0000 is used as zone.
