date_time_info: Info: date-time

In clock: Date-Time Types and Tools

Info: date-time

Description

date_time_info() retrieves a set of low-level information generally not required for most date-time manipulations. It returns a data frame with the same columns as sys_time_info(), but the begin and end columns are date-times with the same time zone as x, and the offset column is an integer rather than a second based duration column since this is part of the high-level API.

Usage

date_time_info(x)

Arguments

x	⁠[POSIXct / POSIXlt]⁠ A date-time.

Value

A data frame of low level information.

Examples

x <- date_time_build(
  2021, 03, 14, c(01, 03), c(59, 00), c(59, 00),
  zone = "America/New_York"
)

# x[1] is in EST, x[2] is in EDT
x

info <- date_time_info(x)
info

# `end` can be used to iterate through daylight saving time transitions
date_time_info(info$end)
