time:atom() and , time:compare(), and time predicates have not yet been ported to the new pico engine. |
...
The default time zone is determined by the operating system running Node and is used if an invalid time zone is provided. The list of valid time zones is updated periodically — for example, version 0.3540.0 of the core engine used IANA TZDB 2017b.
...
time:new() - returns a new RFC 3339 datetime string () from a string formatted as described in ISO8601 (v2000). It assumes UTC unless otherwise specified.

Unrecognized time units are ignored. The exact rules can get complicated considering leap years, different month lengths, and adding (or subtracting) multiple units at once versus one after another. See http://momentjs.com/docs/#/manipulating/add/ (the time module uses a version above 2.18.0). UTC does not have daylight savings time.
...
time:strftime() - returns a datetime string in a specified format following POSIX strftime conventions. It assumes the default time zone of the operating system running Node.
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
time:strftime(xTime, "%F %T") # 2010-10-06 18:15:24 time:strftime(xTime, "%F") # 2010-10-06 time:strftime(xTime, "%T") # 18:19:29 time:strftime(xTime, "%A %d %b %Y") # Wednesday 06 Oct 2010 time:strftime(xTime, "%c") # Oct 6, 2010 6:25:55 PM time:strftime(xTime, "%s") # 1286388924 -- seconds since epoch |
Valid format arguments to strftime follow the POSIX strftime conventions. If the format string is invalid, the format string is returned as is.
