NAME

Meerkat::DateTime - DateTime proxy for lazy inflation from an epoch value

VERSION

version 0.016

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
use Time::HiRes;
use Meerkat::DateTime;
my $mkdt = Meerkat::DateTime->new( epoch = time );
my $datetime = $mkdt->DateTime;
            
          

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a way to lazily inflate floating point epoch seconds into a DateTime object. It's conceptually similar to DateTime::Tiny, but without all the year, month, day, etc. fields.

The Meerkat::Types module provides Moose type support and coercions and MooseX::Storage type handling to simplify having Meerkat::DateTime attributes.

See the Meerkat::Cookbook for more on handling dates and times.

ATTRIBUTES

epoch (required)

Floating point epoch seconds

DateTime

A lazily-inflated DateTime object. It will not be serialized by MooseX::Storage.
