class Time

Returns a new Time object based on the given arguments.

Required argument time may be either of:

• A Time object, whose value is the basis for the returned time; also influenced by optional keyword argument in: (see below).

• A numeric number of Epoch seconds for the returned time.

Examples:

t = Time.new(2000, 12, 31, 23, 59, 59) # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59 -0600
secs = t.to_i                          # => 978328799
Time.at(secs)                          # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59 -0600
Time.at(secs + 0.5)                    # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 -0600
Time.at(1000000000)                    # => 2001-09-08 20:46:40 -0500
Time.at(0)                             # => 1969-12-31 18:00:00 -0600
Time.at(-1000000000)                   # => 1938-04-24 17:13:20 -0500

Optional numeric argument subsec and optional symbol argument units work together to specify subseconds for the returned time; argument units specifies the units for subsec:

• :millisecond: subsec in milliseconds:

  Time.at(secs, 0, :millisecond)     # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59 -0600
  Time.at(secs, 500, :millisecond)   # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 -0600
  Time.at(secs, 1000, :millisecond)  # => 2001-01-01 00:00:00 -0600
  Time.at(secs, -1000, :millisecond) # => 2000-12-31 23:59:58 -0600
  

• :microsecond or :usec: subsec in microseconds:

  Time.at(secs, 0, :microsecond)        # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59 -0600
  Time.at(secs, 500000, :microsecond)   # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 -0600
  Time.at(secs, 1000000, :microsecond)  # => 2001-01-01 00:00:00 -0600
  Time.at(secs, -1000000, :microsecond) # => 2000-12-31 23:59:58 -0600
  

• :nanosecond or :nsec: subsec in nanoseconds:

  Time.at(secs, 0, :nanosecond)           # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59 -0600
  Time.at(secs, 500000000, :nanosecond)   # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 -0600
  Time.at(secs, 1000000000, :nanosecond)  # => 2001-01-01 00:00:00 -0600
  Time.at(secs, -1000000000, :nanosecond) # => 2000-12-31 23:59:58 -0600
  

Optional keyword argument +in: zone specifies the timezone for the returned time:

Time.at(secs, in: '+12:00') # => 2001-01-01 17:59:59 +1200
Time.at(secs, in: '-12:00') # => 2000-12-31 17:59:59 -1200

For the forms of argument zone, see Timezone Specifiers.

# File ruby_3_3_0_preview2/timev.rb, line 282
def self.at(time, subsec = false, unit = :microsecond, in: nil)
  if Primitive.mandatory_only?
    Primitive.time_s_at1(time)
  else
    Primitive.time_s_at(time, subsec, unit, Primitive.arg!(:in))
  end
end

Like Time.utc, except that the returned Time object has the local timezone, not the UTC timezone:

# With seven arguments.
Time.local(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
# => 0000-01-02 03:04:05.000006 -0600
# With exactly ten arguments.
Time.local(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
# => 0005-04-03 02:01:00 -0600

static VALUE
time_s_mktime(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE klass)
{
    struct vtm vtm;

    time_arg(argc, argv, &vtm);
    return time_localtime(time_new_timew(klass, timelocalw(&vtm)));
}

Returns a new Time object based on the given arguments, by default in the local timezone.

With no positional arguments, returns the value of Time.now:

Time.new # => 2021-04-24 17:27:46.0512465 -0500

With one string argument that represents a time, returns a new Time object based on the given argument, in the local timezone.

Time.new('2000-12-31 23:59:59.5')              # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 -0600
Time.new('2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 +0900')        # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 +0900
Time.new('2000-12-31 23:59:59.5', in: '+0900') # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 +0900
Time.new('2000-12-31 23:59:59.5')              # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.5 -0600
Time.new('2000-12-31 23:59:59.56789', precision: 3) # => 2000-12-31 23:59:59.567 -0600

With one to six arguments, returns a new Time object based on the given arguments, in the local timezone.

Time.new(2000, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) # => 2000-01-02 03:04:05 -0600

For the positional arguments (other than zone):

• year: Year, with no range limits:

  Time.new(999999999)  # => 999999999-01-01 00:00:00 -0600

# => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 +1200
Time.new(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, in: '-12:00')
# => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 -1200
Time.new(in: '-12:00')
# => 2022-08-23 08:49:26.1941467 -1200

• precision: maximum effective digits in sub-second part, default is 9. More digits will be truncated, as other operations of Time. Ignored unless the first argument is a string.

# File ruby_3_3_0_preview2/timev.rb, line 384
def initialize(year = (now = true), mon = (str = year; nil), mday = nil, hour = nil, min = nil, sec = nil, zone = nil,
               in: nil, precision: 9)
  if zone
    if Primitive.arg!(:in)
      raise ArgumentError, "timezone argument given as positional and keyword arguments"
    end
  else
    zone = Primitive.arg!(:in)
  end

  if now
    return Primitive.time_init_now(zone)
  end

  if str and Primitive.time_init_parse(str, zone, precision)
    return self
  end

  Primitive.time_init_args(year, mon, mday, hour, min, sec, zone)
end

Creates a new Time object from the current system time. This is the same as Time.new without arguments.

Time.now               # => 2009-06-24 12:39:54 +0900
Time.now(in: '+04:00') # => 2009-06-24 07:39:54 +0400

For forms of argument zone, see Timezone Specifiers.

# File ruby_3_3_0_preview2/timev.rb, line 223
def self.now(in: nil)
  Primitive.time_s_now(Primitive.arg!(:in))
end

Returns a new Time object based the on given arguments, in the UTC timezone.

With one to seven arguments given, the arguments are interpreted as in the first calling sequence above:

Time.utc(year, month = 1, mday = 1, hour = 0, min = 0, sec = 0, usec = 0)

Examples:

Time.utc(2000)  # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
Time.utc(-2000) # => -2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC

There are no minimum and maximum values for the required argument year.

For the optional arguments:

• month: Month in range (1..12), or case-insensitive 3-letter month name:

  Time.utc(2000, 1)     # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 12)    # => 2000-12-01 00:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 'jan') # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 'JAN') # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  

• mday: Month day in range(1..31):

  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1)  # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 1, 31) # => 2000-01-31 00:00:00 UTC
  

• hour: Hour in range (0..23), or 24 if min, sec, and usec are zero:

  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 0)  # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 23) # => 2000-01-01 23:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 24) # => 2000-01-02 00:00:00 UTC
  

• min: Minute in range (0..59):

  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0)  # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 0, 59) # => 2000-01-01 00:59:00 UTC
  

• sec: Second in range (0..59), or 60 if usec is zero:

  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0)  # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0, 59) # => 2000-01-01 00:00:59 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0, 60) # => 2000-01-01 00:01:00 UTC
  

• usec: Microsecond in range (0..999999):

  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0)      # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  Time.utc(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 999999) # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00.999999 UTC
  

The values may be:

• Integers, as above.

• Numerics convertible to integers:

  Time.utc(Float(0.0), Rational(1, 1), 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0)
  # => 0000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  

• String integers:

  a = %w[0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0]
  # => ["0", "1", "1", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0"]
  Time.utc(*a) # => 0000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
  

When exactly ten arguments are given, the arguments are interpreted as in the second calling sequence above:

Time.utc(sec, min, hour, mday, month, year, dummy, dummy, dummy, dummy)

where the dummy arguments are ignored:

a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
# => [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
Time.utc(*a) # => 0005-04-03 02:01:00 UTC

This form is useful for creating a Time object from a 10-element array returned by Time.to_a:

t = Time.new(2000, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) # => 2000-01-02 03:04:05 +000006
a = t.to_a   # => [5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 2000, 0, 2, false, nil]
Time.utc(*a) # => 2000-01-02 03:04:05 UTC

The two forms have their first six arguments in common, though in different orders; the ranges of these common arguments are the same for both forms; see above.

Raises an exception if the number of arguments is eight, nine, or greater than ten.

{
    struct vtm vtm;

    time_arg(argc, argv, &vtm);
    return time_gmtime(time_new_timew(klass, timegmw(&vtm)));
}

Returns a new Time object whose value is the sum of the numeric value of self and the given numeric:

t = Time.new(2000) # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 -0600
t + (60 * 60 * 24) # => 2000-01-02 00:00:00 -0600

    }
    return time_add(tobj, time1, time2, 1);
}

When numeric is given, returns a new Time object whose value is the difference of the numeric value of self and numeric:

t = Time.new(2000) # => 2000-01-01 00:00:00 -0600
t - (60 * 60 * 24) # => 1999-12-31 00:00:00 -0600
t - 0.5            # => 1999-12-31 23:59:59.5 -0600

    }
    return time_add(tobj, time1, time2, -1);
}

Compares self with other_time; returns:

• -1, if self is less than other_time.

• 0, if self is equal to other_time.

• 1, if self is greater then other_time.

• nil, if self and other_time are incomparable.

Returns a hash of the name/value pairs, to use in pattern matching. Possible keys are: :year, :month, :day, :yday, :wday, :hour, :min, :sec, :subsec, :dst, :zone.

Possible usages:

t = Time.utc(2022, 10, 5, 21, 25, 30)

if t in wday: 3, day: ..7  # uses deconstruct_keys underneath
  puts "first Wednesday of the month"
end
#=> prints "first Wednesday of the month"

case t
in year: ...2022
  puts "too old"
in month: ..9
  puts "quarter 1-3"
in wday: 1..5, month:
  puts "working day in month #{month}"
end
#=> prints "working day in month 10"

Note that deconstruction by pattern can also be combined with class check:

if t in Time(wday: 3, day: ..7)
  puts "first Wednesday of the month"
end
