# iso8601-duration
Parse ISO8601 duration format.
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#Durations>
## Installation
```toml
iso8601-duration = "0.2.0"
```
## Usage
```rust
use iso8601_duration::Duration;
assert_eq!(
"P3Y6M4DT12H30M5S".parse(),
Ok(Duration::new(3., 6., 4., 12., 30., 5.))
);
assert_eq!("P23DT23H".parse::<Duration>().unwrap().num_hours(), Some(575.));
assert_eq!("P0.5Y".parse::<Duration>().unwrap().num_years(), Some(0.5));
assert_eq!("P0.5Y0.5M".parse::<Duration>().unwrap().num_months(), Some(6.5));
assert_eq!("P12W".parse::<Duration>().unwrap().num_days(), Some(84.));
assert!("PT".parse::<Duration>().is_err());
assert!("P12WT12H30M5S".parse::<Duration>().is_err());
assert!("P0.5S0.5M".parse::<Duration>().is_err());
assert!("P0.5A".parse::<Duration>().is_err());
```
## `year` and `month`
`Duration` can be converted to either `std::time::Duration` or
`chrono::Duration` by calling `to_std` or `to_chrono`.
Both `to_std` and `to_chrono` will return `None` if the duration
includes `year` and `month`. Because ISO8601 duration format allows
the usage of `year` and `month`, and these durations are non-standard.
Since months can have 28, 29 30, 31 days, and years can have either
365 or 366 days.
To perform a lossless conversion, a starting date must be specified:
```rust
// requires `chrono` feature
use iso8601_duration::Duration;
use chrono::DateTime;
let one_month: Duration = "P1M".parse().unwrap();
let date = DateTime::parse_from_rfc3339("2000-02-01T00:00:00Z").unwrap();
assert_eq!(
one_month.to_chrono_at_datetime(date).num_days(),
29 // 2000 is a leap year
);
```
