tsx

Time Stamp eXtensions for Python

Why tsx? tsa was created as a response to the known Python datetime standard library flaw that violates ISO 8601. ( Example )

It properly handles the Daylight Saving Time (summer time), and provides functionality for creating, manipulating, and formatting timestamps in various formats and precisions.

Under the hood, it uses external dateparser library that's fully compatible with ISO 8601, and it simplifies working with date & time stamps.

Installation

pip pinstall tsx

Usage:

The library is pretty simple, its central class is TS, which inhertis Python builtin float, so every timestamp in fact is a float representing number of seconds since Epoch.

The TSMsec is the same TS with only difference that it's constructor by default expects msec precision, i.e. number of msecs since epoch, but internally it will store the same float as number of seconds since Epoch.

TS(ts: Union[int, float, str], prec: Literal["s", "ms"] = "s")`

TSMsec(ts: Union[int, float, str], prec: Literal["s", "ms"] = "ms")
  • prec - is precision of the ts argument.
    • If prec=="s" - the ts argument will be interpreted as nr of seconds since epoch,
    • If prec=="ms" - the ts argument will be interpreted as nr of milliseconds since epoch

Example:

ts = TS(ts="1519855200.123856", prec="s")

ts == 1519855200.123856
ts.as_iso == '2018-02-28T22:00:00.123856Z'
ts.as_iso_tz(pytz.timezone("Europe/Bucharest")) == '2018-03-01T00:00:00.123856+02:00'

TS("2018-02-28T22:00:00.123Z")
TS("2018-02-28T22:00:00.123")

TS("2018-02-28T22:00:00.123+00:00")
ts = TS.now()

ts.as_sec == 1234567890.123
ts.as_ms == 1234567890123
ts.as_file_date == '20090213'
ts.as_file_ts == '20090213-233130'

TSMsec

The TSMsec class, a subclass of float, and it's used as a factory class to instantiate TS from milliseconds precision.

After instantiation, the TSMsec instance is identical to TS instance, and it includes all the same methods and properties.

iTS

  • The iTS class, a subclass of int, represents Unix timestamps in seconds. It includes additional methods for timestamp manipulation and formatting.
  • It inherits from BaseTS and int classes, so it exposes all the methods TS has, as well as it supports all the arithmetic operations int supports.
  • It's identical to TS class, but all the methods that return TS will return iTS instead, excepting the timestamp(), which returns TS.

Key Methods and Properties

  • The same as TS class, but all the methods that return TS will return iTS instead.

iTSms

  • The iTSms class, a subclass of int, represents Unix timestamps in milliseconds. It includes additional methods for timestamp manipulation and formatting.
  • It inherits from BaseTS and int classes, so it exposes all the methods TS has, as well as it supports all the arithmetic operations int supports.
  • It's identical to TSMsec class, but all the methods that return TS will return iTSms instead, excepting the timestamp(), which returns TS.

iTSus

  • The iTSus class, a subclass of int, represents Unix timestamps in microseconds. It includes additional methods for timestamp manipulation and formatting.
  • It inherits from BaseTS and int classes, so it exposes all the methods TS has, as well as it supports all the arithmetic operations int supports.
  • It's identical to TS class, but all the methods that are expected to return TS will return iTSus instead, excepting the timestamp(), which returns TS.

iTSns

  • The iTSns class, a subclass of int, represents Unix timestamps in nanoseconds. It includes additional methods for timestamp manipulation and formatting.
  • It inherits from BaseTS and int classes, so it exposes all the methods TS has, as well as it supports all the arithmetic operations int supports.
  • It's identical to TS class, but all the methods that are expected to return TS will return iTSns instead, excepting the timestamp(), which returns TS.
  • Note: The iTSns class is only available for Python >= 3.8, and it support ns level now precision by using time.time_ns() instead of time.time().
