Types

type Date

type Date time.Time

Date is a custom type that implements the MarshalJSON interface that applies date only formatting to the time.Time fields in order to avoid common time and timezone pitfalls when working with Times.

Examples:

"2019-01-01" -> time.Time{2019-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 UTC}
"2019-01-01T21:10:30Z" -> time.Time{2019-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 UTC}
"2019-01-01T21:10:30+01:00" -> time.Time{2019-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 UTC}

func DateFromString

func DateFromString(s string) Date

DateFromString returns a Date type from a string by parsing the string into a time.Time type and then stripping the time and timezone information.

Errors are ignored and an empty Date is returned.

func DateFromTime

func DateFromTime(t time.Time) Date

DateFromTime returns a Date type from a time.Time type by stripping the time and timezone information.

func (Date) MarshalJSON

func (d Date) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

func (Date) String

func (d Date) String() string

func (Date) Time

func (d Date) Time() time.Time

func (*Date) UnmarshalJSON

func (d *Date) UnmarshalJSON(data []byte) (err error)
