There are instructions [here](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install). Once you have Rust installed, simply run: ```bash cargo install timey ``` ## Usage ### Parse a date-time string into a timestamp ```bash $ timey parse '2019-03-05 00:00 +0100' --format '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M %z' 1551744000 ``` ```bash $ timey parse '2019-03-05T00:00+01:00' 1525521780 ``` ### Format a timestamp as a date-time string ```bash $ timey format 1525521780 2019-03-05T00:00+01:00 ``` ```bash timey format 1525521780 -f '%Y-%m-%d' 2018-05-05 ``` ### Formatting Options For a full list of formatting specifiers, see [here](https://docs.rs/chrono/0.4.6/chrono/format/strftime/index.html#specifiers). ### Options ```bash -c, --copy # Copy the result to your the clipboard -f, --format # The date format to use for parsing/formatting -m, --millis # Use timestamps in millis rather than seconds -h, --help # Display help ``` ## Display Current Time _The `-c` flag for copying the result to the clipboard also works with these commands._ ### As a timestamp ```bash $ timey now display 1551908316 ``` ```bash $ timey now display -m 1551908316000 ``` ### As a formatted date-time string ```bash $ timey now format 2019-03-06T21:38:30.265352+00:00 ``` ```bash $ timey now format -f '%Y-%m-%d' 2019-03-06 ```
