NOTICE

This package is private to the Astro::App::Satpass2 package. The author reserves the right to revoke it or change it without notice.

DESCRIPTION

This package provides common functionality for strftime-based time formatters. Since the actual implementation may vary, what we really have here is a repository for common formats. These are implemented as manifest constants (i.e. use constant), but are documented below as methods.

MANIFEST CONSTANTS

This class supports the following manifest constants, which are all exported by default:

DATE_FORMAT

This manifest constant returns a date format designed to produce a numeric date in the format year-month-day. Since this format is intended to be used with strftime(), it is '%Y-%m-%d'.

FORMAT_TYPE

This manifest constant returns the type of format expected by the formatter. This class returns 'strftime'.

ISO_8601_FORMAT

This manifest constant returns a date format designed to produce a date and time in ISO 8601 format, in the Universal/GMT time zone. Since this format is intended to be used with strftime(), it is '%Y%m%dT%H%M%SZ'.

TIME_FORMAT

This manifest constant returns a date format designed to produce a time in the format hour:minute:second. Since this format is intended to be used with strftime(), it is '%H:%M:%S'.

SUPPORT

Support is by the author. Please file bug reports at http://rt.cpan.org, or in electronic mail to the author.
