MooseX::Types::ISO8601 - ISO8601 date and duration string type constraints and coercions for Moose

    use MooseX::Types::ISO8601 qw/
        ISO8601TimeDurationStr
    /;

    has duration => (
        isa => ISO8601TimeDurationStr,
        is => 'ro',
        coerce => 1,
    );

    Class->new( duration => 60 ); # 60s => PT00H01M00S
    Class->new( duration => DateTime::Duration->new(%args) )

This module packages several TypeConstraints with coercions for working with ISO8601 date strings and the DateTime suite of objects.

An ISO8601 date string. E.g. 2009-06-11

An ISO8601 time string. E.g. 12:06:34Z

An ISO8601 combined datetime string. E.g. 2009-06-11T12:06:34Z

The date types will coerce from:

Num

The number is treated as a time in seconds since the unix epoch

DateTime

The duration represented as a DateTime object.

An ISO8601 date duration string. E.g. P01Y01M01D

An ISO8601 time duration string. E.g. PT01H01M01S

An ISO8601 comboined date and time duration string. E.g. P01Y01M01DT01H01M01S

The duration types will coerce from:

Num

The number is treated as a time in seconds

DateTime::Duration

The duration represented as a DateTime::Duration object.

The duration types will coerce to:

Duration

A DateTime::Duration, i.e. the Duration constraint from MooseX::Types::DateTime.

Patches are welcome.

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601
• http://dotat.at/tmp/ISO_8601-2004_E.pdf

Probably full of them, patches are very welcome.

Specifically missing features:

No timezone support - all times are assumed UTC

No week number type

Tests are rubbish.
