Phobos provides the following functionality for time: This functionality is separated into the following modules

• std.datetime.date for points in time without timezones.
• std.datetime.timezone for classes which represent timezones.
• std.datetime.systime for a point in time with a timezone.
• std.datetime.interval for types which represent series of points in time.
• std.datetime.stopwatch for measuring time.

Examples:

Get the current time from the system clock

import std.datetime.systime : SysTime, Clock;

SysTime currentTime = Clock.currTime();

Examples:

Construct a specific point in time without timezone information and get its ISO string.

import std.datetime.date : DateTime;

auto dt = DateTime(2018, 1, 1, 12, 30, 10);
writeln(dt.toISOString()); // "20180101T123010"
writeln(dt.toISOExtString()); // "2018-01-01T12:30:10"

Examples:

Construct a specific point in time in the UTC timezone and add two days.

import std.datetime.systime : SysTime;
import std.datetime.timezone : UTC;
import core.time : days;

auto st = SysTime(DateTime(2018, 1, 1, 12, 30, 10), UTC());
writeln(st.toISOExtString()); // "2018-01-01T12:30:10Z"
st += 2.days;
writeln(st.toISOExtString()); // "2018-01-03T12:30:10Z"
