Pretty Date

A rust library for the simple, friendly, human readable formatting for the chrono NaiveDateTime, for example:

• Within the last ten minutes: Just now
• Earlier today: 20:56 Today
• Earlier in the year: 5 September, 23:56

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
pretty_date = "0.1.2"

Basic default usage:

use chrono::NaiveDateTime;
use pretty_date::pretty_date_formatter::PrettyDateFormatter;

fn main() {
    let date = NaiveDateTime::parse_from_str("2015-09-05 23:56:04", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S").unwrap();
    println!("{}", date.format_pretty());
}

Advanced usage:

use chrono::NaiveDateTime;
use pretty_date::pretty_date_format::PrettyDateFormat;
use pretty_date::pretty_date_rule::PrettyDateRule;

fn main() {
    let date = NaiveDateTime::parse_from_str("2015-09-05 23:56:04", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S").unwrap();
    let date_format = PrettyDateFormat {
        rules: vec![
            PrettyDateRule::Today,
            PrettyDateRule::ThisYear,
        ],
        default_format: "%-e %B %Y, %H:%M",
    };
    println!("{}", date_format.format_pretty(&date));
}
