Time
is an abstraction of dates and times. Time
is stored internally as the number of seconds with subsecond since the Epoch, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC.
The Time
class treats GMT (Greenwich Mean Time
) and UTC (Coordinated Universal Time
) as equivalent. GMT is the older way of referring to these baseline times but persists in the names of calls on POSIX systems.
Note: A Time object uses the resolution available on your system clock.
All times may have subsecond. Be aware of this fact when comparing times with each other â times that are apparently equal when displayed may be different when compared. (Since Ruby 2.7.0, Time#inspect
shows subsecond but Time#to_s
still doesnât show subsecond.)
All of these examples were done using the EST timezone which is GMT-5.
Creating a New Time Instance¶ ↑You can create a new instance of Time
with Time.new
. This will use the current system time. Time.now
is an alias for this. You can also pass parts of the time to Time.new
such as year, month, minute, etc. When you want to construct a time this way you must pass at least a year. If you pass the year with nothing else time will default to January 1 of that year at 00:00:00 with the current system timezone. Here are some examples:
Time.new(2002) Time.new(2002, 10) Time.new(2002, 10, 31)
You can pass a UTC offset:
Time.new(2002, 10, 31, 2, 2, 2, "+02:00")
Or a timezone object:
zone = timezone("Europe/Athens") Time.new(2002, 10, 31, 2, 2, 2, zone)
You can also use Time.local
and Time.utc
to infer local and UTC timezones instead of using the current system setting.
You can also create a new time using Time.at
which takes the number of seconds (with subsecond) since the Unix Epoch.
Time.at(628232400)Working with an Instance of Time¶ ↑
Once you have an instance of Time
there is a multitude of things you can do with it. Below are some examples. For all of the following examples, we will work on the assumption that you have done the following:
t = Time.new(1993, 02, 24, 12, 0, 0, "+09:00")
Was that a monday?
t.monday?
What year was that again?
t.year
Was it daylight savings at the time?
t.dst?
Whatâs the day a year later?
t + (60*60*24*365)
How many seconds was that since the Unix Epoch?
t.to_i
You can also do standard functions like compare two times.
t1 = Time.new(2010) t2 = Time.new(2011) t1 == t2 t1 == t1 t1 < t2 t1 > t2 Time.new(2010,10,31).between?(t1, t2)Whatâs Here¶ ↑
First, whatâs elsewhere. Class Time:
Inherits from class Object.
Includes module Comparable.
Here, class Time provides methods that are useful for:
::new
: Returns a new time from specified arguments (year, month, etc.), including an optional timezone value.
::local
(aliased as ::mktime): Same as ::new
, except the timezone is the local timezone.
::utc
(aliased as ::gm): Same as ::new
, except the timezone is UTC.
::at
: Returns a new time based on seconds since epoch.
::now
: Returns a new time based on the current system time.
+
(plus): Returns a new time increased by the given number of seconds.
- (minus): Returns a new time
decreased by the given number of seconds.
year
: Returns the year of the time.
hour
: Returns the hours value for the time.
min
: Returns the minutes value for the time.
sec
: Returns the seconds value for the time.
usec
(aliased as tv_usec
): Returns the number of microseconds in the subseconds value of the time.
nsec
(aliased as tv_nsec
: Returns the number of nanoseconds in the subsecond part of the time.
subsec
: Returns the subseconds value for the time.
wday
: Returns the integer weekday value of the time (0 == Sunday).
yday
: Returns the integer yearday value of the time (1 == January 1).
hash
: Returns the integer hash value for the time.
utc_offset
(aliased as gmt_offset
and gmtoff
): Returns the offset in seconds between time and UTC.
to_f
: Returns the float number of seconds since epoch for the time.
to_i
(aliased as tv_sec
): Returns the integer number of seconds since epoch for the time.
to_r
: Returns the Rational
number of seconds since epoch for the time.
zone
: Returns a string representation of the timezone of the time.
dst?
(aliased as isdst
): Returns whether the time is DST (daylight saving time).
sunday?
: Returns whether the time is a Sunday.
monday?
: Returns whether the time is a Monday.
tuesday?
: Returns whether the time is a Tuesday.
wednesday?
: Returns whether the time is a Wednesday.
thursday?
: Returns whether the time is a Thursday.
friday?
: Returns whether time is a Friday.
saturday?
: Returns whether the time is a Saturday.
inspect
: Returns the time in detail as a string.
strftime
: Returns the time as a string, according to a given format.
to_a
: Returns a 10-element array of values from the time.
to_s
: Returns a string representation of the time.
getutc
(aliased as getgm
): Returns a new time converted to UTC.
getlocal
: Returns a new time converted to local time.
localtime
: Converts time to local time in place.
round
:Returns a new time with subseconds rounded.
ceil
: Returns a new time with subseconds raised to a ceiling.
floor
: Returns a new time with subseconds lowered to a floor.
A timezone argument must have local_to_utc
and utc_to_local
methods, and may have name
, abbr
, and dst?
methods.
The local_to_utc
method should convert a Time-like object from the timezone to UTC, and utc_to_local
is the opposite. The result also should be a Time
or Time-like object (not necessary to be the same class). The zone
of the result is just ignored. Time-like argument to these methods is similar to a Time
object in UTC without subsecond; it has attribute readers for the parts, e.g. year
, month
, and so on, and epoch time readers, to_i
. The subsecond attributes are fixed as 0, and utc_offset
, zone
, isdst
, and their aliases are same as a Time
object in UTC. Also to_time
, +
, and -
methods are defined.
The name
method is used for marshaling. If this method is not defined on a timezone object, Time
objects using that timezone object can not be dumped by Marshal
.
The abbr
method is used by â%Zâ in strftime
.
The dst?
method is called with a Time
value and should return whether the Time
value is in daylight savings time in the zone.
At loading marshaled data, a timezone name will be converted to a timezone object by find_timezone
class method, if the method is defined.
Similarly, that class method will be called when a timezone argument does not have the necessary methods mentioned above.

def self.now(in: nil) new(in: Primitive.arg!(:in)) end
parse(date, now=self.now) { |year| ... } click to toggle source
Takes a string representation of a Time
and attempts to parse it using a heuristic.
This method **does not** function as a validator. If the input string does not match valid formats strictly, you may get a cryptic result. Should consider to use âTime.strptime` instead of this method as possible.
require 'time' Time.parse("2010-10-31")
Any missing pieces of the date are inferred based on the current date.
require 'time' Time.parse("12:00")
We can change the date used to infer our missing elements by passing a second object that responds to mon
, day
and year
, such as Date
, Time
or DateTime
. We can also use our own object.
require 'time' class MyDate attr_reader :mon, :day, :year def initialize(mon, day, year) @mon, @day, @year = mon, day, year end end d = Date.parse("2010-10-28") t = Time.parse("2010-10-29") dt = DateTime.parse("2010-10-30") md = MyDate.new(10,31,2010) Time.parse("12:00", d) Time.parse("12:00", t) Time.parse("12:00", dt) Time.parse("12:00", md)
If a block is given, the year described in date
is converted by the block. This is specifically designed for handling two digit years. For example, if you wanted to treat all two digit years prior to 70 as the year 2000+ you could write this:
require 'time' Time.parse("01-10-31") {|year| year + (year < 70 ? 2000 : 1900)} Time.parse("70-10-31") {|year| year + (year < 70 ? 2000 : 1900)}
If the upper components of the given time are broken or missing, they are supplied with those of now
. For the lower components, the minimum values (1 or 0) are assumed if broken or missing. For example:
require 'time' now = Time.parse("Thu Nov 29 14:33:20 2001") Time.parse("16:30", now) Time.parse("7/23", now) Time.parse("Aug 31", now) Time.parse("Aug 2000", now)
Since there are numerous conflicts among locally defined time zone abbreviations all over the world, this method is not intended to understand all of them. For example, the abbreviation âCSTâ is used variously as:
-06:00 in America/Chicago, -05:00 in America/Havana, +08:00 in Asia/Harbin, +09:30 in Australia/Darwin, +10:30 in Australia/Adelaide, etc.
Based on this fact, this method only understands the time zone abbreviations described in RFC 822 and the system time zone, in the order named. (i.e. a definition in RFC 822 overrides the system time zone definition.) The system time zone is taken from Time.local(year, 1, 1).zone
and Time.local(year, 7, 1).zone
. If the extracted time zone abbreviation does not match any of them, it is ignored and the given time is regarded as a local time.
ArgumentError
is raised if Date
._parse cannot extract information from date
or if the Time
class cannot represent specified date.
This method can be used as a fail-safe for other parsing methods as:
Time.rfc2822(date) rescue Time.parse(date) Time.httpdate(date) rescue Time.parse(date) Time.xmlschema(date) rescue Time.parse(date)
A failure of Time.parse
should be checked, though.
You must require âtimeâ to use this method.
def parse(date, now=self.now) comp = !block_given? d = Date._parse(date, comp) year = d[:year] year = yield(year) if year && !comp make_time(date, year, d[:yday], d[:mon], d[:mday], d[:hour], d[:min], d[:sec], d[:sec_fraction], d[:zone], now) end

except that instead of using a heuristic to detect the format of the input string, you provide a second argument that describes the format of the string.

zone_offset(zone, year=self.now.year) click to toggle source
Return the number of seconds the specified time zone differs from UTC.
Numeric
time zones that include minutes, such as -10:00
or +1330
will work, as will simpler hour-only time zones like -10
or +13
.
Textual time zones listed in ZoneOffset are also supported.
If the time zone does not match any of the above, zone_offset
will check if the local time zone (both with and without potential Daylight Saving Time changes being in effect) matches zone
. Specifying a value for year
will change the year used to find the local time zone.
If zone_offset
is unable to determine the offset, nil will be returned.

strftime( string ) → string click to toggle source
Formats time according to the directives in the given format string.
The directives begin with a percent (%) character. Any text not listed as a directive will be passed through to the output string.
The directive consists of a percent (%) character, zero or more flags, optional minimum field width, optional modifier and a conversion specifier as follows:
%<flags><width><modifier><conversion>
Flags:
- don't pad a numerical output _ use spaces for padding 0 use zeros for padding ^ upcase the result string # change case : use colons for %z
The minimum field width specifies the minimum width.
The modifiers are âEâ and âOâ. They are ignored.
Format directives:
Date (Year, Month, Day): %Y - Year with century if provided, will pad result at least 4 digits. -0001, 0000, 1995, 2009, 14292, etc. %C - year / 100 (rounded down such as 20 in 2009) %y - year % 100 (00..99) %m - Month of the year, zero-padded (01..12) %_m blank-padded ( 1..12) %-m no-padded (1..12) %B - The full month name (``January'') %^B uppercased (``JANUARY'') %b - The abbreviated month name (``Jan'') %^b uppercased (``JAN'') %h - Equivalent to %b %d - Day of the month, zero-padded (01..31) %-d no-padded (1..31) %e - Day of the month, blank-padded ( 1..31) %j - Day of the year (001..366) Time (Hour, Minute, Second, Subsecond): %H - Hour of the day, 24-hour clock, zero-padded (00..23) %k - Hour of the day, 24-hour clock, blank-padded ( 0..23) %I - Hour of the day, 12-hour clock, zero-padded (01..12) %l - Hour of the day, 12-hour clock, blank-padded ( 1..12) %P - Meridian indicator, lowercase (``am'' or ``pm'') %p - Meridian indicator, uppercase (``AM'' or ``PM'') %M - Minute of the hour (00..59) %S - Second of the minute (00..60) %L - Millisecond of the second (000..999) The digits under millisecond are truncated to not produce 1000. %N - Fractional seconds digits, default is 9 digits (nanosecond) %3N millisecond (3 digits) %6N microsecond (6 digits) %9N nanosecond (9 digits) %12N picosecond (12 digits) %15N femtosecond (15 digits) %18N attosecond (18 digits) %21N zeptosecond (21 digits) %24N yoctosecond (24 digits) The digits under the specified length are truncated to avoid carry up. Time zone: %z - Time zone as hour and minute offset from UTC (e.g. +0900) %:z - hour and minute offset from UTC with a colon (e.g. +09:00) %::z - hour, minute and second offset from UTC (e.g. +09:00:00) %Z - Abbreviated time zone name or similar information. (OS dependent) Weekday: %A - The full weekday name (``Sunday'') %^A uppercased (``SUNDAY'') %a - The abbreviated name (``Sun'') %^a uppercased (``SUN'') %u - Day of the week (Monday is 1, 1..7) %w - Day of the week (Sunday is 0, 0..6) ISO 8601 week-based year and week number: The first week of YYYY starts with a Monday and includes YYYY-01-04. The days in the year before the first week are in the last week of the previous year. %G - The week-based year %g - The last 2 digits of the week-based year (00..99) %V - Week number of the week-based year (01..53) Week number: The first week of YYYY that starts with a Sunday or Monday (according to %U or %W). The days in the year before the first week are in week 0. %U - Week number of the year. The week starts with Sunday. (00..53) %W - Week number of the year. The week starts with Monday. (00..53) Seconds since the Epoch: %s - Number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC. Literal string: %n - Newline character (\n) %t - Tab character (\t) %% - Literal ``%'' character Combination: %c - date and time (%a %b %e %T %Y) %D - Date (%m/%d/%y) %F - The ISO 8601 date format (%Y-%m-%d) %v - VMS date (%e-%^b-%4Y) %x - Same as %D %X - Same as %T %r - 12-hour time (%I:%M:%S %p) %R - 24-hour time (%H:%M) %T - 24-hour time (%H:%M:%S)
This method is similar to strftime() function defined in ISO C and POSIX.
While all directives are locale independent since Ruby 1.9, %Z is platform dependent. So, the result may differ even if the same format string is used in other systems such as C.
%z is recommended over %Z. %Z doesnât identify the timezone. For example, âCSTâ is used at America/Chicago (-06:00), America/Havana (-05:00), Asia/Harbin (+08:00), Australia/Darwin (+09:30) and Australia/Adelaide (+10:30). Also, %Z is highly dependent on the operating system. For example, it may generate a non ASCII string on Japanese Windows, i.e. the result can be different to âJSTâ. So the numeric time zone offset, %z, is recommended.
Examples:

to_f → float click to toggle source
Returns the value of time as a floating point number of seconds since the Epoch. The return value approximate the exact value in the Time
object because floating point numbers cannot represent all rational numbers exactly.
t = Time.now t.to_f t.to_i
Note that IEEE 754 double is not accurate enough to represent the exact number of nanoseconds since the Epoch. (IEEE 754 double has 53bit mantissa. So it can represent exact number of nanoseconds only in 2 ** 53 / 1_000_000_000 / 60 / 60 / 24 = 104.2
days.) When Ruby uses a nanosecond-resolution clock function, such as clock_gettime
of POSIX, to obtain the current time, Time#to_f
can lose information of a Time
object created with Time.now
.
