Struct Utc 

pub struct Utc;

The UTC time zone. This is the most efficient time zone when you don’t need the local time. It is also used as an offset (which is also a dummy type).

Using the TimeZone methods on the UTC struct is the preferred way to construct DateTime<Utc> instances.

Example

use chrono::{DateTime, TimeZone, Utc};

let dt = DateTime::from_timestamp(61, 0).unwrap();

assert_eq!(Utc.timestamp_opt(61, 0).unwrap(), dt);
assert_eq!(Utc.with_ymd_and_hms(1970, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1).unwrap(), dt);

Implementations

impl Utc

pub fn today() -> Date<Utc>

👎Deprecated since 0.4.23:

use Utc::now() instead, potentially with .date_naive()

Returns a Date which corresponds to the current date.

pub fn now() -> DateTime<Utc>

Returns a DateTime<Utc> which corresponds to the current date and time in UTC.

See also the similar Local::now() which returns DateTime<Local>, i.e. the local date and time including offset from UTC.

Example

// Current time in UTC
let now_utc = Utc::now();

// Current date in UTC
let today_utc = now_utc.date_naive();

// Current time in some timezone (let's use +05:00)
let offset = FixedOffset::east_opt(5 * 60 * 60).unwrap();
let now_with_offset = Utc::now().with_timezone(&offset);

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Utc

fn clone(&self) -> Utc

Returns a duplicate of the value.

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Copy for Utc

impl Debug for Utc

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for Utc

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

impl Eq for Utc

impl Hash for Utc

fn hash<__H>(&self, state: &mut __H)

where __H: Hasher,

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl Offset for Utc

fn fix(&self) -> FixedOffset

Returns the fixed offset from UTC to the local time stored.

impl PartialEq for Utc

fn eq(&self, other: &Utc) -> 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 StructuralPartialEq for Utc

impl TimeZone for Utc

type Offset = Utc

An associated offset type. This type is used to store the actual offset in date and time types. The original TimeZone value can be recovered via TimeZone::from_offset.
