Functions:

  • public string get_default_date_format (bool with_weekday = false, bool with_day = true, bool with_year = false)
    Gets the default translated date format. The function constructs a new string interpreting the with_weekday, with_day and with_year parameters so that it can be used with formatting functions like GLib.DateTime.format.
  • public string get_default_time_format (bool is_12h = false, bool with_second = false)
    Gets a default translated time format. The function constructs a new string interpreting the is_12h and with_second parameters so that it can be used with formatting functions like GLib.DateTime.format.
  • public string get_relative_datetime (DateTime date_time)
    Compares a GLib.DateTime to GLib.DateTime.now_local and returns a location, relative date and time string. Results appear as natural -language strings like "Now", "5m ago", "Yesterday"
  • public bool is_same_day (DateTime day1, DateTime day2)
    Compare two GLib.DateTime and return true if they occur on the same day of the same year
  • public string seconds_to_time (int seconds)
    Converts seconds into the ISO 8601 standard date format for minutes (e.g. 100s to 01:40). Output of negative seconds is prepended with minus character.
