format.clock_zoned_time: Formatting: zoned-time

In clock: Date-Time Types and Tools

Formatting: zoned-time

Description

This is a zoned-time method for the format() generic.

This function allows you to format a zoned-time using a flexible format string.

If format is NULL, a default format of "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%Ez[%Z]" is used. This matches the default format that zoned_time_parse_complete() parses. Additionally, this format matches the de-facto standard extension to RFC 3339 for creating completely unambiguous date-times.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'clock_zoned_time'
format(x, ..., format = NULL, locale = clock_locale(), abbreviate_zone = FALSE)

Arguments

x	⁠[clock_zoned_time]⁠ A zoned-time.
...	⁠[dots]⁠ Not used, but no error will be thrown if not empty to remain compatible with usage of the format() generic.
format	⁠[character(1) / NULL]⁠ If NULL, a default format is used, which depends on the type of the input. Otherwise, a format string which is a combination of: Year ⁠%C⁠: The year divided by 100 using floored division. If the result is a single decimal digit, it is prefixed with 0. ⁠%y⁠: The last two decimal digits of the year. If the result is a single digit it is prefixed by 0. ⁠%Y⁠: The year as a decimal number. If the result is less than four digits it is left-padded with 0 to four digits. Month ⁠%b⁠, ⁠%h⁠: The locale's abbreviated month name. ⁠%B⁠: The locale's full month name. ⁠%m⁠: The month as a decimal number. January is 01. If the result is a single digit, it is prefixed with 0. Day ⁠%d⁠: The day of month as a decimal number. If the result is a single decimal digit, it is prefixed with 0. Day of the week ⁠%a⁠: The locale's abbreviated weekday name. ⁠%A⁠: The locale's full weekday name. ⁠%w⁠: The weekday as a decimal number (0-6), where Sunday is 0. ISO 8601 week-based year ⁠%g⁠: The last two decimal digits of the ISO week-based year. If the result is a single digit it is prefixed by 0. ⁠%G⁠: The ISO week-based year as a decimal number. If the result is less than four digits it is left-padded with 0 to four digits. ⁠%V⁠: The ISO week-based week number as a decimal number. If the result is a single digit, it is prefixed with 0. ⁠%u⁠: The ISO weekday as a decimal number (1-7), where Monday is 1. Week of the year ⁠%U⁠: The week number of the year as a decimal number. The first Sunday of the year is the first day of week 01. Days of the same year prior to that are in week 00. If the result is a single digit, it is prefixed with 0. ⁠%W⁠: The week number of the year as a decimal number. The first Monday of the year is the first day of week 01. Days of the same year prior to that are in week 00. If the result is a single digit, it is prefixed with 0. Day of the year ⁠%j⁠: The day of the year as a decimal number. January 1 is 001. If the result is less than three digits, it is left-padded with 0 to three digits. Date ⁠%D⁠, ⁠%x⁠: Equivalent to ⁠%m/%d/%y⁠. ⁠%F⁠: Equivalent to ⁠%Y-%m-%d⁠. Time of day ⁠%H⁠: The hour (24-hour clock) as a decimal number. If the result is a single digit, it is prefixed with 0. ⁠%I⁠: The hour (12-hour clock) as a decimal number. If the result is a single digit, it is prefixed with 0. ⁠%M⁠: The minute as a decimal number. If the result is a single digit, it is prefixed with 0. ⁠%S⁠: Seconds as a decimal number. Fractional seconds are printed at the precision of the input. The character for the decimal point is localized according to locale. ⁠%p⁠: The locale's equivalent of the AM/PM designations associated with a 12-hour clock. ⁠%R⁠: Equivalent to ⁠%H:%M⁠. ⁠%T⁠, ⁠%X⁠: Equivalent to ⁠%H:%M:%S⁠. ⁠%r⁠: Nearly equivalent to ⁠%I:%M:%S %p⁠, but seconds are always printed at second precision. Time zone ⁠%z⁠: The offset from UTC in the ISO 8601 format. For example -0430 refers to 4 hours 30 minutes behind UTC. If the offset is zero, +0000 is used. The modified command ⁠%Ez⁠ inserts a : between the hour and minutes, like -04:30. ⁠%Z⁠: The full time zone name. If abbreviate_zone is TRUE, the time zone abbreviation. Miscellaneous ⁠%c⁠: A date and time representation. Similar to, but not exactly the same as, ⁠%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y⁠. %%: A ⁠%⁠ character. ⁠%n⁠: A newline character. ⁠%t⁠: A horizontal-tab character.
locale	⁠[clock_locale]⁠ A locale object created from clock_locale().
abbreviate_zone	⁠[logical(1)]⁠ If TRUE, ⁠%Z⁠ returns an abbreviated time zone name. If FALSE, ⁠%Z⁠ returns the full time zone name.

Value

A character vector of the formatted input.

Examples

x <- year_month_day(2019, 1, 1)
x <- as_zoned_time(as_naive_time(x), "America/New_York")

format(x)
format(x, format = "%B %d, %Y")
format(x, format = "%B %d, %Y", locale = clock_locale("fr"))
