NAME

MooseX::Types::ISO8601 - ISO8601 date and duration string type constraints and coercions for Moose

SYNOPSIS

use MooseX::Types::ISO8601 qw/
    ISO8601TimeDurationStr
/;

has duration => (
    isa => ISO8601TimeDurationStr,
    is => 'ro',
    coerce => 1,
);

Class->new( duration => 60 ); # 60s => PT00H01M00S
Class->new( duration => DateTime::Duration->new(%args) )

DESCRIPTION

This module packages several TypeConstraints with coercions for working with ISO8601 date strings and the DateTime suite of objects.

DATE CONSTRAINTS

ISO8601DateStr

An ISO8601 date string. E.g. 2009-06-11

ISO8601TimeStr

An ISO8601 time string. E.g. 12:06:34Z

ISO8601DateTimeStr

An ISO8601 combined datetime string. E.g. 2009-06-11T12:06:34Z

COERCIONS

The date types will coerce from:

Num

The number is treated as a time in seconds since the unix epoch

DateTime

The duration represented as a DateTime object.

DURATION CONSTRAINTS

ISO8601DateDurationStr

An ISO8601 date duration string. E.g. P01Y01M01D

ISO8601TimeDurationStr

An ISO8601 time duration string. E.g. PT01H01M01S

ISO8601DateTimeDurationStr

An ISO8601 comboined date and time duration string. E.g. P01Y01M01DT01H01M01S

COERCIONS

The duration types will coerce from:

Num

The number is treated as a time in seconds

DateTime::Duration

The duration represented as a DateTime::Duration object.

The duration types will coerce to:

Duration

A DateTime::Duration, i.e. the Duration constraint from MooseX::Types::DateTime.

Specifically missing features:

No timezone support - all times are assumed UTC

No week number type

Tests are rubbish.
