DESCRIPTION
"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 "0001-01-01T00Z". In "Time:Moment" leap seconds are
ignored. It is assumed that there are exactly "86,400,000,000,000" nanoseconds per day.
"Time::Moment" can represent all epoch integers from "-62,135,596,800" to
"253,402,300,799"; 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
new
$tm = Time::Moment->new(
year => 2012,
month => 12,
day => 24,
hour => 15,
minute => 30,
second => 45,
nanosecond => 123456789,
offset => 0,
);
Constructs an instance of "Time::Moment" from the given components.
Parameters:
year
The year [1, 9999].
month
The month of the year [1, 12].
day The day of the month [1, 31]. The day must be valid for the year and month, otherwise
an exception is raised.
hour
The hour of the day [0, 23].
minute
The minute of the hour [0, 59].
second
The second of the minute [0, 59].
nanosecond
The nanosecond of the second [0, 999_999_999].
offset
The offset from UTC in minutes [-1080, 1080] (±18:00).
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);
$tm = Time::Moment->from_epoch($seconds [, nanosecond => 0] [, precision => 6]);
Constructs an instance of "Time::Moment" from the given seconds from the epoch of
1970-01-01T00Z. Fractional seconds is supported if the constructor is invoked with seconds
only, the default precision is 6 (microseconds).
Parameters:
nanosecond
$tm = Time::Moment->from_epoch($seconds, nanosecond => 0);
The optional parameter nanosecond [0, 999_999_999] specifies the nanosecond of the
second.
precision
$tm = Time::Moment->from_epoch($seconds, precision => 6);
The optional parameter precision [0, 9] specifies the precision of the fractional
seconds. The default precision is 6 (microseconds).
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 range and must have a time
zone or an offset from UTC, coercing from the 'floating' time zone is not supported.
Time::Piece
$tm = Time::Moment->from_object( scalar 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', scalar Time::Piece::localtime());
$tm = Params::Coerce::coerce('Time::Moment', DateTime->now);
"Time::Moment" also implements a coercion handler from "Time::Moment" to "DateTime" and
"Time::Piece":
$dt = Params::Coerce::coerce('DateTime', Time::Moment->now);
$tp = Params::Coerce::coerce('Time::Piece', Time::Moment->now);
from_string
$tm = Time::Moment->from_string($string);
$tm = Time::Moment->from_string($string [, lenient => false]);
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 zone designator. The time of
day may be reduced to hour of the day, the second of the minute may have a decimal
fraction. The decimal sign can be either the comma [,] or the full stop [.]. A decimal
fraction must have at least one digit and may have a total of nine digits, if the
fractional precision is greater than nine digits, the value will be truncated.
The following are examples of complete date and time of day representations:

The string representation may consist of a mixture of the basic format and the extended
format. The time designator [T] may be in lower case [t] or replaced with a single space.
A single space is also accepted between the time of day and the zone designator. The UTC
designator [Z] may also be in lower case [z]. The literal string GMT or UTC may be used as
a UTC designator and may have an offset. Usage of these string representations is strongly
discouraged as they do not conform to the ISO 8601 standard.

TIME ZONES
An instance of "Time::Moment" represents an unambiguous point in time, but it's not time
zone aware. When performing arithmetic on the local date/time or altering the components
of the local date/time it may be necessary to use a time zone to convert to the correct
representation.
"Time::Moment" is API compatible with DateTime::TimeZone and DateTime::TimeZone::Tzfile.
Converting from instant time to designated time zone
$tm = Time::Moment->new(
year => 2012,
month => 12,
day => 24,
hour => 15
);
$zone = DateTime::TimeZone->new(name => 'America/New_York');
$offset = $zone->offset_for_datetime($tm) / 60;
say $tm->with_offset_same_instant($offset); # 2012-12-24T10-05
Converting from local time to designated time zone
$tm = Time::Moment->new(
year => 2012,
month => 12,
day => 24,
hour => 15
);
$zone = DateTime::TimeZone->new(name => 'America/New_York');
$offset = $zone->offset_for_local_datetime($tm) / 60;
say $tm->with_offset_same_local($offset); # 2012-12-24T15-05
The Effect of Daylight Saving Time
The time zone Europe/Brussels has 01:00 UTC as standard time, and 02:00 UTC as daylight
savings time, with transition dates according to the European Summer Time
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summer_Time_in_Europe>.
$zone = DateTime::TimeZone->new(name => 'Europe/Brussels');
sub convert_from_instant {
my ($tm, $zone) = @_;
my $offset = $zone->offset_for_datetime($tm) / 60;
return $tm->with_offset_same_instant($offset);
}
sub convert_from_local {
my ($tm, $zone) = @_;
my $offset = $zone->offset_for_local_datetime($tm) / 60;
return $tm->with_offset_same_local($offset);
}
European Summer Time begins (clocks go forward) at 01:00 UTC on the last Sunday in March,
in 2014 the transition date was March 30.
$tm1 = Time::Moment->from_string('2014-03-29T12+01');
$tm2 = $tm1->plus_hours(24);
say convert_from_instant($tm2, $zone); # 2014-03-30T13+02
say convert_from_local($tm2, $zone); # 2014-03-30T12+02
During the transition from standard time to daylight savings time, the local time interval
between 02:00:00 and 02:59:59 does not exist. Local time values in that interval are
invalid. "DateTime::TimeZone" raises an exception when attempting to convert non-existing
local time.
$tm1 = Time::Moment->from_string('2014-03-29T22+01');
$tm2 = $tm1->plus_hours(4);
say convert_from_instant($tm2, $zone); # 2014-03-30T03+02
say convert_from_local($tm2, $zone); # raises an exception
European Summer Time ends (clocks go backward) at 01:00 UTC on the last Sunday in October,
in 2014 the transition date was October 26.
$tm1 = Time::Moment->from_string('2014-10-25T12+02');
$tm2 = $tm1->plus_hours(24);
say convert_from_instant($tm2, $zone); # 2014-10-26T11+01
say convert_from_local($tm2, $zone); # 2014-10-26T12+01
During the transition from daylight savings time to standard time, the local time interval
between 02:00:00 and 02:59:59 is repeated. Local time values in that interval are
ambiguous because they occur twice. When "DateTime::TimeZone" converts an ambiguous local
time it returns the numerically lowest offset (usually the standard one).
$tm1 = Time::Moment->from_string('2014-10-25T22+02');
$tm2 = $tm1->plus_hours(4);
say convert_from_instant($tm2, $zone); # 2014-10-26T02+02
say convert_from_local($tm2, $zone); # 2014-10-26T02+01
