Struct icu_datetime::neo_pattern::DateTimePattern

pub struct DateTimePattern { /* private fields */ }

A pattern for formatting a datetime in a calendar.

DateTimePattern forgoes most internationalization functionality of the datetime crate. It assumes that the pattern is already localized for the customer’s locale. Most clients should use DateTimeFormatter instead of directly formatting with patterns.

There are two ways to make one of these:

1. From a custom pattern string: DateTimePattern::try_from_pattern_str
2. From a formatted datetime: FormattedNeoDateTime::pattern

Things you can do with one of these:

1. Use it to directly format a datetime via TypedDateTimeNames
2. Convert it to a string pattern via [Writeable]
3. Get the resolved components

Examples

Create a pattern from a custom string and compare it to one from data, then check the resolved components:

use icu::calendar::Date;
use icu::calendar::Gregorian;
use icu::datetime::fieldset::YMD;
use icu::datetime::neo_pattern::DateTimePattern;
use icu::datetime::provider::skeleton::components;
use icu::datetime::FixedCalendarDateTimeFormatter;
use icu::locale::locale;
use writeable::assert_writeable_eq;

// Create the pattern from a string:
let pattern_str = "d MMM y";
let custom_pattern =
    DateTimePattern::try_from_pattern_str(pattern_str).unwrap();
assert_writeable_eq!(custom_pattern, pattern_str);

// Load data that resolves to the same pattern:
let data_pattern = FixedCalendarDateTimeFormatter::<Gregorian, _>::try_new(
    &locale!("es-MX").into(),
    YMD::medium(),
)
.unwrap()
// The pattern can depend on the datetime being formatted.
.format(&Date::try_new_iso(2024, 1, 1).unwrap().to_calendar(Gregorian))
.pattern();
assert_writeable_eq!(data_pattern, pattern_str);
assert_eq!(custom_pattern, data_pattern);

// Check the resolved components:
let mut expected_components_bag = components::Bag::default();
expected_components_bag.year = Some(components::Year::Numeric);
expected_components_bag.month = Some(components::Month::Short);
expected_components_bag.day = Some(components::Day::NumericDayOfMonth);
let actual_components_bag = components::Bag::from(&data_pattern);
assert_eq!(actual_components_bag, expected_components_bag);

Implementations

impl DateTimePattern

pub fn try_from_pattern_str(pattern_str: &str) -> Result<Self, PatternError>

Creates a DateTimePattern from a pattern string.

For more details on the syntax, see UTS 35: https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#Date_Format_Patterns

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for DateTimePattern

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for DateTimePattern

This trait is implemented for compatibility with fmt!. To create a string, [Writeable::write_to_string] is usually more efficient.

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl From<&DateTimePattern> for Bag

fn from(value: &DateTimePattern) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl FromStr for DateTimePattern

type Err = PatternError

The associated error which can be returned from parsing.

fn from_str(s: &str) -> Result<Self, Self::Err>

Parses a string s to return a value of this type.

impl PartialEq for DateTimePattern

fn eq(&self, other: &Self) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Writeable for DateTimePattern

fn write_to<W: Write + ?Sized>(&self, sink: &mut W) -> Result

Writes a string to the given sink. Errors from the sink are bubbled up. The default implementation delegates to write_to_parts, and discards any Part annotations.

fn write_to_parts<S>(&self, sink: &mut S) -> Result<(), Error>

where S: PartsWrite + ?Sized,

Write bytes and Part annotations to the given sink. Errors from the sink are bubbled up. The default implementation delegates to write_to, and doesn’t produce any Part annotations.

fn writeable_length_hint(&self) -> LengthHint

Returns a hint for the number of UTF-8 bytes that will be written to the sink.

fn write_to_string(&self) -> Cow<'_, str>

Creates a new String with the data from this Writeable. Like ToString, but smaller and faster.
