Struct std::time::Duration

1.3.0 · source · [−]
pub struct Duration { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A Duration type to represent a span of time, typically used for system timeouts.

Each Duration is composed of a whole number of seconds and a fractional part represented in nanoseconds. If the underlying system does not support nanosecond-level precision, APIs binding a system timeout will typically round up the number of nanoseconds.

Durations implement many common traits, including Add, Sub, and other ops traits. It implements Default by returning a zero-length Duration.

Examples

use std::time::Duration;

let five_seconds = Duration::new(5, 0);
let five_seconds_and_five_nanos = five_seconds + Duration::new(0, 5);

assert_eq!(five_seconds_and_five_nanos.as_secs(), 5);
assert_eq!(five_seconds_and_five_nanos.subsec_nanos(), 5);

let ten_millis = Duration::from_millis(10);
Run

Formatting Duration values

Duration intentionally does not have a Display impl, as there are a variety of ways to format spans of time for human readability. Duration provides a Debug impl that shows the full precision of the value.

The Debug output uses the non-ASCII “µs” suffix for microseconds. If your program output may appear in contexts that cannot rely on full Unicode compatibility, you may wish to format Duration objects yourself or use a crate to do so.

The duration of one second.

Examples
#![feature(duration_constants)]
use std::time::Duration;

assert_eq!(Duration::SECOND, Duration::from_secs(1));
Run
🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (duration_constants #57391)

The duration of one millisecond.

Examples
#![feature(duration_constants)]
use std::time::Duration;

assert_eq!(Duration::MILLISECOND, Duration::from_millis(1));
Run
🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (duration_constants #57391)

The duration of one microsecond.

Examples
#![feature(duration_constants)]
use std::time::Duration;

assert_eq!(Duration::MICROSECOND, Duration::from_micros(1));
Run
🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (duration_constants #57391)

The duration of one nanosecond.

Examples
#![feature(duration_constants)]
use std::time::Duration;

assert_eq!(Duration::NANOSECOND, Duration::from_nanos(1));
Run

A duration of zero time.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::ZERO;
assert!(duration.is_zero());
assert_eq!(duration.as_nanos(), 0);
Run

The maximum duration.

May vary by platform as necessary. Must be able to contain the difference between two instances of Instant or two instances of SystemTime. This constraint gives it a value of about 584,942,417,355 years in practice, which is currently used on all platforms.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

assert_eq!(Duration::MAX, Duration::new(u64::MAX, 1_000_000_000 - 1));
Run

Creates a new Duration from the specified number of whole seconds and additional nanoseconds.

If the number of nanoseconds is greater than 1 billion (the number of nanoseconds in a second), then it will carry over into the seconds provided.

Panics

This constructor will panic if the carry from the nanoseconds overflows the seconds counter.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let five_seconds = Duration::new(5, 0);
Run

Creates a new Duration from the specified number of whole seconds.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::from_secs(5);

assert_eq!(5, duration.as_secs());
assert_eq!(0, duration.subsec_nanos());
Run

Creates a new Duration from the specified number of milliseconds.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::from_millis(2569);

assert_eq!(2, duration.as_secs());
assert_eq!(569_000_000, duration.subsec_nanos());
Run

Creates a new Duration from the specified number of microseconds.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::from_micros(1_000_002);

assert_eq!(1, duration.as_secs());
assert_eq!(2000, duration.subsec_nanos());
Run

Creates a new Duration from the specified number of nanoseconds.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::from_nanos(1_000_000_123);

assert_eq!(1, duration.as_secs());
assert_eq!(123, duration.subsec_nanos());
Run

Returns true if this Duration spans no time.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

assert!(Duration::ZERO.is_zero());
assert!(Duration::new(0, 0).is_zero());
assert!(Duration::from_nanos(0).is_zero());
assert!(Duration::from_secs(0).is_zero());

assert!(!Duration::new(1, 1).is_zero());
assert!(!Duration::from_nanos(1).is_zero());
assert!(!Duration::from_secs(1).is_zero());
Run

Returns the number of whole seconds contained by this Duration.

The returned value does not include the fractional (nanosecond) part of the duration, which can be obtained using subsec_nanos.

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::new(5, 730023852);
assert_eq!(duration.as_secs(), 5);
Run

To determine the total number of seconds represented by the Duration, use as_secs in combination with subsec_nanos:

use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::new(5, 730023852);

assert_eq!(5.730023852,
           duration.as_secs() as f64
           + duration.subsec_nanos() as f64 * 1e-9);
Run

Returns the fractional part of this Duration, in whole milliseconds.

This method does not return the length of the duration when represented by milliseconds. The returned number always represents a fractional portion of a second (i.e., it is less than one thousand).

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::from_millis(5432);
assert_eq!(duration.as_secs(), 5);
assert_eq!(duration.subsec_millis(), 432);
Run

Returns the fractional part of this Duration, in whole microseconds.

This method does not return the length of the duration when represented by microseconds. The returned number always represents a fractional portion of a second (i.e., it is less than one million).

Examples
use std::time::Duration;

let duration = Duration::from_micros(1_234_567);
assert_eq!(duration.as_secs(), 1);
assert_eq!(duration.subsec_micros(), 234_567);
Run

Returns the fractional part of this Duration, in nanoseconds.

This method does not return the length of the duration when represented by nanoseconds. The returned number always represents a fractional portion of a second (i.e., it is less than one billion).
