Struct Epoch

#[repr(C)]
pub struct Epoch { pub duration: Duration, pub time_scale: TimeScale, }
Expand description

Defines a nanosecond-precision Epoch.

Refer to the appropriate functions for initializing this Epoch from different time scales or representations.

(Python documentation hints) :type string_repr: str :rtype: Epoch

Fields§

§duration: Duration

An Epoch is always stored as the duration since the beginning of its time scale

§time_scale: TimeScale

Time scale used during the initialization of this Epoch.

Implementations§

§

impl Epoch

pub fn to_gregorian_str(&self, time_scale: TimeScale) -> String

Converts the Epoch to Gregorian in the provided time scale and in the ISO8601 format with the time scale appended to the string

pub fn to_gregorian_utc(&self) -> (i32, u8, u8, u8, u8, u8, u32)

Converts the Epoch to the Gregorian UTC equivalent as (year, month, day, hour, minute, second). WARNING: Nanoseconds are lost in this conversion!

§Example
use hifitime::Epoch;

let dt_tai = Epoch::from_tai_parts(1, 537582752000000000);

let dt_str = "2017-01-14T00:31:55 UTC";
let dt = Epoch::from_gregorian_str(dt_str).unwrap();

let (y, m, d, h, min, s, _) = dt_tai.to_gregorian_utc();
assert_eq!(y, 2017);
assert_eq!(m, 1);
assert_eq!(d, 14);
assert_eq!(h, 0);
assert_eq!(min, 31);
assert_eq!(s, 55);
#[cfg(feature = "std")]
{
assert_eq!("2017-01-14T00:31:55 UTC", format!("{dt_tai:?}"));
// dt_tai is initialized from TAI, so the default print is the Gregorian in that time system
assert_eq!("2017-01-14T00:32:32 TAI", format!("{dt_tai}"));
// But dt is initialized from UTC, so the default print and the debug print are both in UTC.
assert_eq!("2017-01-14T00:31:55 UTC", format!("{dt}"));
}

pub fn to_gregorian_tai(&self) -> (i32, u8, u8, u8, u8, u8, u32)

Converts the Epoch to the Gregorian TAI equivalent as (year, month, day, hour, minute, second). WARNING: Nanoseconds are lost in this conversion!

§Example
use hifitime::Epoch;
let dt = Epoch::from_gregorian_tai_at_midnight(1972, 1, 1);
let (y, m, d, h, min, s, _) = dt.to_gregorian_tai();
assert_eq!(y, 1972);
assert_eq!(m, 1);
assert_eq!(d, 1);
assert_eq!(h, 0);
assert_eq!(min, 0);
assert_eq!(s, 0);

Attempts to build an Epoch from the provided Gregorian date and time in TAI.

pub fn maybe_from_gregorian( year: i32, month: u8, day: u8, hour: u8, minute: u8, second: u8, nanos: u32, time_scale: TimeScale, ) -> Result<Epoch, HifitimeError>

Attempts to build an Epoch from the provided Gregorian date and time in the provided time scale.

Note: The month is ONE indexed, i.e. January is month 1 and December is month 12.

pub fn from_gregorian_tai( year: i32, month: u8, day: u8, hour: u8, minute: u8, second: u8, nanos: u32, ) -> Epoch

Builds an Epoch from the provided Gregorian date and time in TAI. If invalid date is provided, this function will panic. Use maybe_from_gregorian_tai if unsure.

pub fn from_gregorian_tai_at_midnight(year: i32, month: u8, day: u8) -> Epoch

Initialize from the Gregorian date at midnight in TAI.

pub fn from_gregorian_tai_at_noon(year: i32, month: u8, day: u8) -> Epoch

Initialize from the Gregorian date at noon in TAI

pub fn from_gregorian_tai_hms( year: i32, month: u8, day: u8, hour: u8, minute: u8, second: u8, ) -> Epoch

Initialize from the Gregorian date and time (without the nanoseconds) in TAI

pub fn from_gregorian( year: i32, month: u8, day: u8, hour: u8, minute: u8, second: u8, nanos: u32, time_scale: TimeScale, ) -> Epoch

Builds an Epoch from the provided Gregorian date and time in the provided time scale. If invalid date is provided, this function will panic. Use maybe_from_gregorian if unsure.

pub fn from_gregorian_at_midnight( year: i32, month: u8, day: u8, time_scale: TimeScale, ) -> Epoch

pub fn from_gregorian_at_noon( year: i32, month: u8, day: u8, time_scale: TimeScale, ) -> Epoch

Initialize from Gregorian date in UTC at noon

pub fn from_gregorian_hms( year: i32, month: u8, day: u8, hour: u8, minute: u8, second: u8, time_scale: TimeScale, ) -> Epoch

Initialize from the Gregorian date and time (without the nanoseconds) in UTC

pub fn from_gregorian_str(s_in: &str) -> Result<Epoch, HifitimeError>

Converts a Gregorian date time in ISO8601 or RFC3339 format into an Epoch, accounting for the time zone designator and the time scale.

§Definition
  1. Time Zone Designator: this is either a Z (lower or upper case) to specify UTC, or an offset in hours and minutes off of UTC, such as +01:00 for UTC plus one hour and zero minutes.
  2. Time system (or time “scale”): UTC, TT, TAI, TDB, ET, etc.

Converts an ISO8601 or RFC3339 datetime representation to an Epoch. If no time scale is specified, then UTC is assumed. A time scale may be specified in addition to the format unless The T which separates the date from the time can be replaced with a single whitespace character (\W). The offset is also optional, cf. the examples below.

§Example
use hifitime::Epoch;
let dt = Epoch::from_gregorian_utc(2017, 1, 14, 0, 31, 55, 0);
assert_eq!(
    dt,
    Epoch::from_gregorian_str("2017-01-14T00:31:55 UTC").unwrap()

pub fn from_tt_duration(duration: Duration) -> Epoch

Initialize an Epoch from the provided TT seconds (approximated to 32.184s delta from TAI)

pub fn from_et_seconds(seconds_since_j2000: f64) -> Epoch

Initialize an Epoch from the Ephemeris Time seconds past 2000 JAN 01 (J2000 reference)

pub fn from_et_duration(duration_since_j2000: Duration) -> Epoch

Initializes an Epoch from the duration between J2000 and the current epoch as per NAIF SPICE.

§Limitation

This method uses a Newton Raphson iteration to find the appropriate TAI duration. This method is only accuracy to a few nanoseconds. Hence, when calling as_et_duration() and re-initializing it with from_et_duration you may have a few nanoseconds of difference (expect less than 10 ns).

§Warning

The et2utc function of NAIF SPICE will assume that there are 9 leap seconds before 01 JAN 1972, as this date introduces 10 leap seconds. At the time of writing, this does not seem to be in line with IERS and the documentation in the leap seconds list.

In order to match SPICE, the as_et_duration() function will manually get rid of that difference.

pub fn from_tdb_seconds(seconds_j2000: f64) -> Epoch

Initialize an Epoch from Dynamic Barycentric Time (TDB) seconds past 2000 JAN 01 midnight (difference than SPICE) NOTE: This uses the ESA algorithm, which is a notch more complicated than the SPICE algorithm, but more precise.

pub fn from_gst_seconds(seconds: f64) -> Epoch

Initialize an Epoch from the number of seconds since the GST Time Epoch, starting August 21st 1999 midnight (UTC) (cf. https://gssc.esa.int/navipedia/index.php/Time_References_in_GNSS).

Initializes an Epoch from the Format as a string.

pub fn from_time_of_week( week: u32, nanoseconds: u64, time_scale: TimeScale, ) -> Epoch

Builds an Epoch from given week: elapsed weeks counter into the desired Time scale, and the amount of nanoseconds within that week. For example, this is how GPS vehicles describe a GPST epoch.

Builds an Epoch from the provided year, days in the year, and a time scale.

§Limitations

In the TDB or ET time scales, there may be an error of up to 750 nanoseconds when initializing an Epoch this way. This is because we first initialize the epoch in Gregorian scale and then apply the TDB/ET offset, but that offset actually depends on the precise time.

§Day couting behavior

The day counter starts at 01, in other words, 01 January is day 1 of the counter, as per the GPS specificiations.

§

impl Epoch

pub fn min(&self, other: Epoch) -> Epoch

Returns the minimum of the two epochs.

use hifitime::Epoch;

let e0 = Epoch::from_gregorian_utc_at_midnight(2022, 10, 20);
let e1 = Epoch::from_gregorian_utc_at_midnight(2022, 10, 21);

assert_eq!(e0, e1.min(e0));
assert_eq!(e0, e0.min(e1));

Note: this uses a pointer to self which will be copied immediately because Python requires a pointer.

pub fn max(&self, other: Epoch) -> Epoch

Returns the maximum of the two epochs.

use hifitime::Epoch;

let e0 = Epoch::from_gregorian_utc_at_midnight(2022, 10, 20);

assert_eq!(e1, e1.max(e0));
assert_eq!(e1, e0.max(e1));

Note: this uses a pointer to self which will be copied immediately because Python requires a pointer.

pub fn floor(&self, duration: Duration) -> Epoch

assert_eq!(
    e.floor(1.hours()),

assert_eq!(
    e.floor(3.minutes()),
    Epoch::from_gregorian_tai_hms(2022, 10, 3, 17, 42, 0)
);

pub fn ceil(&self, duration: Duration) -> Epoch

Ceils this epoch to the closest provided duration in the TAI time scale

§Example

assert_eq!(
    e.ceil(1.hours()),
    Epoch::from_gregorian_tai_hms(2022, 5, 20, 18, 0, 0)
);

// 45 minutes is a multiple of 3 minutes, hence this result
let e = Epoch::from_gregorian_tai(2022, 10, 3, 17, 44, 29, 898032665);
assert_eq!(

assert_eq!(
    e.round(1.hours()),
    Epoch::from_gregorian_tai_hms(2022, 5, 20, 18, 0, 0)
);

pub fn to_time_of_week(&self) -> (u32, u64)

Converts this epoch into the time of week, represented as a rolling week counter into that time scale and the number of nanoseconds elapsed in current week (since closest Sunday midnight). This is usually how GNSS receivers describe a timestamp.

pub fn weekday_in_time_scale(&self, time_scale: TimeScale) -> Weekday

Returns the weekday in provided time scale ASSUMING that the reference epoch of that time scale is a Monday. You probably do not want to use this. You probably either want weekday() or weekday_utc(). Several time scales do not have a reference day that’s on a Monday, e.g. BDT.

impl Epoch

pub fn now() -> Result<Epoch, HifitimeError>

Initializes a new Epoch from now. WARNING: This assumes that the system time returns the time in UTC (which is the case on Linux) Uses std::time::SystemTime::now or javascript interop under the hood

§

impl Epoch

pub fn leap_seconds_with<L>(&self, iers_only: bool, provider: L) -> Option<f64>

Get the accumulated number of leap seconds up to this Epoch from the provided LeapSecondProvider. Returns None if the epoch is before 1960, year at which UTC was defined.

§Why does this function return an Option when the other returns a value

This is to match the iauDat function of SOFA (src/dat.c). That function will return a warning and give up if the start date is before 1960.

pub const fn from_duration(duration: Duration, ts: TimeScale) -> Epoch

Creates an epoch from given duration expressed in given timescale, i.e. since the given time scale’s reference epoch.

For example, if the duration is 1 day and the time scale is Ephemeris Time, then this will create an epoch of 2000-01-02 at midnight ET. If the duration is 1 day and the time scale is TAI, this will create an epoch of 1900-01-02 at noon, because the TAI reference epoch in Hifitime is chosen to be the J1900 epoch. In case of ET, TDB Timescales, a duration since J2000 is expected.

pub fn to_tdb_duration(&self) -> Duration

Returns the Dynamics Barycentric Time (TDB) as a high precision Duration since J2000

§Algorithm

Given the embedded sine functions in the equation to compute the difference between TDB and TAI from the number of TDB seconds past J2000, one cannot solve the revert the operation analytically. Instead, we iterate until the value no longer changes.

  1. Assume that the TAI duration is in fact the TDB seconds from J2000.
  2. Offset to J2000 because Epoch stores everything in the J1900 but the TDB duration is in J2000.
  3. Compute the offset g due to the TDB computation with the current value of the TDB seconds (defined in step 1).
  4. Subtract that offset to the latest TDB seconds and store this as a new candidate for the true TDB seconds value.
  5. Compute the difference between this candidate and the previous one. If the difference is less than one nanosecond, stop iteration.
  6. Set the new candidate as the TDB seconds since J2000 and loop until step 5 breaks the loop, or we’ve done five iterations.
  7. At this stage, we have a good approximation of the TDB seconds since J2000.
  8. Reverse the algorithm given that approximation: compute the g offset, compute the difference between TDB and TAI, add the TT offset (32.184 s), and offset by the difference between J1900 and J2000.
