Overview

Time is an abstraction of dates and times. Time is stored internally as the number of seconds with subsecond since the Epoch, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC.

The Time class treats GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) and UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) as equivalent. GMT is the older way of referring to these baseline times but persists in the names of calls on POSIX systems.

Note: A Time object uses the resolution available on your system clock.

All times may have subsecond. Be aware of this fact when comparing times with each other – times that are apparently equal when displayed may be different when compared. (Since Ruby 2.7.0, #inspect shows subsecond but #to_s still doesn’t show subsecond.)

Examples

All of these examples were done using the EST timezone which is GMT-5.

Creating a New Time Instance

You can create a new instance of Time with .new. This will use the current system time. .now is an alias for this. You can also pass parts of the time to .new such as year, month, minute, etc. When you want to construct a time this way you must pass at least a year. If you pass the year with nothing else time will default to January 1 of that year at 00:00:00 with the current system timezone. Here are some examples:

Time.new(2002)         #=> 2002-01-01 00:00:00 -0500
Time.new(2002, 10)     #=> 2002-10-01 00:00:00 -0500
Time.new(2002, 10, 31) #=> 2002-10-31 00:00:00 -0500

You can pass a UTC offset:

Time.new(2002, 10, 31, 2, 2, 2, "+02:00") #=> 2002-10-31 02:02:02 +0200

Or a timezone object:

zone = timezone("Europe/Athens")      # Eastern European Time, UTC+2
Time.new(2002, 10, 31, 2, 2, 2, zone) #=> 2002-10-31 02:02:02 +0200

You can also use .local and .utc to infer local and UTC timezones instead of using the current system setting.

You can also create a new time using .at which takes the number of seconds (with subsecond) since the Unix Epoch.

Time.at(628232400) #=> 1989-11-28 00:00:00 -0500

Working with an Instance of Time

Once you have an instance of Time there is a multitude of things you can do with it. Below are some examples. For all of the following examples, we will work on the assumption that you have done the following:

t = Time.new(1993, 02, 24, 12, 0, 0, "+09:00")

Was that a monday?

t.monday? #=> false

What year was that again?

t.year #=> 1993

Was it daylight savings at the time?

t.dst? #=> false

What’s the day a year later?

t + (60*60*24*365) #=> 1994-02-24 12:00:00 +0900

How many seconds was that since the Unix Epoch?

t.to_i #=> 730522800

You can also do standard functions like compare two times.

t1 = Time.new(2010)
t2 = Time.new(2011)

t1 == t2 #=> false
t1 == t1 #=> true
t1 <  t2 #=> true
t1 >  t2 #=> false

Time.new(2010,10,31).between?(t1, t2) #=> true

What’s Here

First, what’s elsewhere. Class Time:

  • Inherits from [class Object](Object.html#class-Object-label-What-27s+Here).

  • Includes [module Comparable](Comparable.html#module-Comparable-label-What-27s+Here).

Here, class Time provides methods that are useful for:

Methods for Creating

  • .new: Returns a new time from specified arguments (year, month, etc.), including an optional timezone value.

  • .local (aliased as .mktime): Same as .new, except the timezone is the local timezone.

  • .utc (aliased as .gm): Same as .new, except the timezone is UTC.

  • .at: Returns a new time based on seconds since epoch.

  • .now: Returns a new time based on the current system time.

  • #+ (plus): Returns a new time increased by the given number of seconds.

  • - (minus): Returns a new time

    decreased by the given number of seconds.

Methods for Fetching

  • #year: Returns the year of the time.

  • #month (aliased as #mon): Returns the month of the time.

  • #mday (aliased as #day): Returns the day of the month.

  • #hour: Returns the hours value for the time.

  • #min: Returns the minutes value for the time.

  • #sec: Returns the seconds value for the time.

  • #usec (aliased as #tv_usec): Returns the number of microseconds in the subseconds value of the time.

  • #nsec (aliased as #tv_nsec: Returns the number of nanoseconds in the subsecond part of the time.

  • #subsec: Returns the subseconds value for the time.

  • #wday: Returns the integer weekday value of the time (0 == Sunday).

  • #yday: Returns the integer yearday value of the time (1 == January 1).

  • #hash: Returns the integer hash value for the time.

  • #utc_offset (aliased as #gmt_offset and #gmtoff): Returns the offset in seconds between time and UTC.

  • #to_f: Returns the float number of seconds since epoch for the time.

  • #to_i (aliased as #tv_sec): Returns the integer number of seconds since epoch for the time.

  • #to_r: Returns the ::Rational number of seconds since epoch for the time.

  • #zone: Returns a string representation of the timezone of the time.

Methods for Querying

  • #utc? (aliased as #gmt?): Returns whether the time is UTC.

  • #dst? (aliased as #isdst): Returns whether the time is DST (daylight saving time).

  • #sunday?: Returns whether the time is a Sunday.

  • #monday?: Returns whether the time is a Monday.

  • #tuesday?: Returns whether the time is a Tuesday.

  • #wednesday?: Returns whether the time is a Wednesday.

  • #thursday?: Returns whether the time is a Thursday.

  • #friday?: Returns whether time is a Friday.

  • #saturday?: Returns whether the time is a Saturday.

Methods for Comparing

  • #<=>: Compares self to another time.

  • #eql?: Returns whether the time is equal to another time.

Methods for Converting

  • #asctime (aliased as #ctime): Returns the time as a string.

  • #inspect: Returns the time in detail as a string.

  • #strftime: Returns the time as a string, according to a given format.

  • #to_a: Returns a 10-element array of values from the time.

  • #to_s: Returns a string representation of the time.

  • #getutc (aliased as #getgm): Returns a new time converted to UTC.

  • #getlocal: Returns a new time converted to local time.

  • #utc (aliased as #gmtime): Converts time to UTC in place.

  • #localtime: Converts time to local time in place.

Methods for Rounding

  • #round:Returns a new time with subseconds rounded.

  • #ceil: Returns a new time with subseconds raised to a ceiling.

  • #floor: Returns a new time with subseconds lowered to a floor.

Timezone Argument

A timezone argument must have local_to_utc and utc_to_local methods, and may have name, abbr, and #dst? methods.

The local_to_utc method should convert a Time-like object from the timezone to UTC, and utc_to_local is the opposite. The result also should be a Time or Time-like object (not necessary to be the same class). The #zone of the result is just ignored. Time-like argument to these methods is similar to a Time object in UTC without subsecond; it has attribute readers for the parts, e.g. #year, #month, and so on, and epoch time readers, #to_i. The subsecond attributes are fixed as 0, and #utc_offset, #zone, #isdst, and their aliases are same as a Time object in UTC. Also #to_time, #+, and #- methods are defined.

The name method is used for marshaling. If this method is not defined on a timezone object, Time objects using that timezone object can not be dumped by ::Marshal.

The abbr method is used by ‘%Z’ in #strftime.

The #dst? method is called with a Time value and should return whether the Time value is in daylight savings time in the zone.

Auto Conversion to Timezone

At loading marshaled data, a timezone name will be converted to a timezone object by find_timezone class method, if the method is defined.

Similarly, that class method will be called when a timezone argument does not have the necessary methods mentioned above.

      #localtime  ⇒ Time 
      #localtime(utc_offset)  ⇒ Time 
    

  



  

    

Converts time to local time (using the local time zone in effect at the creation time of time) modifying the receiver.



If #utc_offset is given, it is used instead of the local time.



t = Time.utc(2000, "jan", 1, 20, 15, 1) #=> 2000-01-01 20:15:01 UTC
t.utc?                                  #=> true

t.localtime                             #=> 2000-01-01 14:15:01 -0600
t.utc?                                  #=> false

t.localtime("+09:00")                   #=> 2000-01-02 05:15:01 +0900
t.utc?                                  #=> false



If #utc_offset is not given and time is local time, just returns the receiver.

    #strftime(string)  ⇒ String   



  

    

Formats time according to the directives in the given format string.



The directives begin with a percent (%) character. Any text not listed as a directive will be passed through to the output string.



The directive consists of a percent (%) character, zero or more flags, optional minimum field width, optional modifier and a conversion specifier as follows:



%<flags><width><modifier><conversion>



Flags:



-  don't pad a numerical output
_  use spaces for padding
0  use zeros for padding
^  upcase the result string
#  change case
:  use colons for %z



The minimum field width specifies the minimum width.



The modifiers are “E” and “O”. They are ignored.



Format directives:



Date (Year, Month, Day):
  %Y - Year with century if provided, will pad result at least 4 digits.
          -0001, 0000, 1995, 2009, 14292, etc.
  %C - year / 100 (rounded down such as 20 in 2009)
  %y - year % 100 (00..99)

  %m - Month of the year, zero-padded (01..12)
          %_m  blank-padded ( 1..12)
          %-m  no-padded (1..12)
  %B - The full month name (``January'')
          %^B  uppercased (``JANUARY'')
  %b - The abbreviated month name (``Jan'')
          %^b  uppercased (``JAN'')
  %h - Equivalent to %b

  %d - Day of the month, zero-padded (01..31)
          %-d  no-padded (1..31)
  %e - Day of the month, blank-padded ( 1..31)

  %j - Day of the year (001..366)

Time (Hour, Minute, Second, Subsecond):
  %H - Hour of the day, 24-hour clock, zero-padded (00..23)
  %k - Hour of the day, 24-hour clock, blank-padded ( 0..23)
  %I - Hour of the day, 12-hour clock, zero-padded (01..12)
  %l - Hour of the day, 12-hour clock, blank-padded ( 1..12)
  %P - Meridian indicator, lowercase (``am'' or ``pm'')
  %p - Meridian indicator, uppercase (``AM'' or ``PM'')

  %M - Minute of the hour (00..59)

  %S - Second of the minute (00..60)

  %L - Millisecond of the second (000..999)
       The digits under millisecond are truncated to not produce 1000.
  %N - Fractional seconds digits, default is 9 digits (nanosecond)
          %3N  millisecond (3 digits)
          %6N  microsecond (6 digits)
          %9N  nanosecond (9 digits)
          %12N picosecond (12 digits)
          %15N femtosecond (15 digits)
          %18N attosecond (18 digits)
          %21N zeptosecond (21 digits)
          %24N yoctosecond (24 digits)
       The digits under the specified length are truncated to avoid
       carry up.

Time zone:
  %z - Time zone as hour and minute offset from UTC (e.g. +0900)
          %:z - hour and minute offset from UTC with a colon (e.g. +09:00)
          %::z - hour, minute and second offset from UTC (e.g. +09:00:00)
  %Z - Abbreviated time zone name or similar information.  (OS dependent)

Weekday:
  %A - The full weekday name (``Sunday'')
          %^A  uppercased (``SUNDAY'')
  %a - The abbreviated name (``Sun'')
          %^a  uppercased (``SUN'')
  %u - Day of the week (Monday is 1, 1..7)
  %w - Day of the week (Sunday is 0, 0..6)

ISO 8601 week-based year and week number:
The first week of YYYY starts with a Monday and includes YYYY-01-04.
The days in the year before the first week are in the last week of
the previous year.
  %G - The week-based year
  %g - The last 2 digits of the week-based year (00..99)
  %V - Week number of the week-based year (01..53)

Week number:
The first week of YYYY that starts with a Sunday or Monday (according to %U
or %W). The days in the year before the first week are in week 0.
  %U - Week number of the year. The week starts with Sunday. (00..53)
  %W - Week number of the year. The week starts with Monday. (00..53)

Seconds since the Epoch:
  %s - Number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC.

Literal string:
  %n - Newline character (\n)
  %t - Tab character (\t)
  %% - Literal ``%'' character

Combination:
  %c - date and time (%a %b %e %T %Y)
  %D - Date (%m/%d/%y)
  %F - The ISO 8601 date format (%Y-%m-%d)
  %v - VMS date (%e-%^b-%4Y)
  %x - Same as %D
  %X - Same as %T
  %r - 12-hour time (%I:%M:%S %p)
  %R - 24-hour time (%H:%M)
  %T - 24-hour time (%H:%M:%S)



This method is similar to strftime() function defined in ISO C and POSIX.



While all directives are locale independent since Ruby 1.9, %Z is platform dependent. So, the result may differ even if the same format string is used in other systems such as C.



%z is recommended over %Z. %Z doesn’t identify the timezone. For example, “CST” is used at America/Chicago (-06:00), America/Havana (-05:00), Asia/Harbin (+08:00), Australia/Darwin (+09:30) and Australia/Adelaide (+10:30). Also, %Z is highly dependent on the operating system. For example, it may generate a non ASCII string on Japanese Windows, i.e. the result can be different to “JST”. So the numeric time zone offset, %z, is recommended.



Examples:



t = Time.new(2007,11,19,8,37,48,"-06:00") #=> 2007-11-19 08:37:48 -0600
t.strftime("Printed on %m/%d/%Y")         #=> "Printed on 11/19/2007"
t.strftime("at %I:%M %p")                 #=> "at 08:37 AM"

    #to_f  ⇒ Float   



  

    

Returns the value of time as a floating point number of seconds since the Epoch. The return value approximate the exact value in the Time object because floating point numbers cannot represent all rational numbers exactly.



t = Time.now        #=> 2020-07-20 22:00:29.38740268 +0900

t.to_i              #=> 1595250029



Note that IEEE 754 double is not accurate enough to represent the exact number of nanoseconds since the Epoch. (IEEE 754 double has 53bit mantissa. So it can represent exact number of nanoseconds only in 2 ** 53 / 1_000_000_000 / 60 / 60 / 24 = 104.2 days.) When Ruby uses a nanosecond-resolution clock function, such as clock_gettime of POSIX, to obtain the current time, to_f can lose information of a Time object created with .now.

      #tv_usec  ⇒ Integer 
    

    Also known as: #tv_usec
  



  

    

Returns the number of microseconds for the subsecond part of time. The result is a non-negative integer less than 10**6.



t = Time.now        #=> 2020-07-20 22:05:58.459785953 +0900
t.usec              #=> 459785



If time has fraction of microsecond (such as nanoseconds), it is truncated.



t = Time.new(2000,1,1,0,0,0.666_777_888_999r)
t.usec              #=> 666777



#subsec can be used to obtain the subsecond part exactly.
