|
||
|
|
||
|
- Print the current time in a format of your choosing:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`biff time fmt {{[-f|--format]}} rfc3339 now`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Print multiple relative times in one command:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`biff time fmt {{[-f|--format]}} '%c' now -1d 'next sat' 'last monday' '9pm last mon'`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Print the current time in another time zone, and round it the nearest 15 minute increment:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`biff time in Asia/Bangkok now | biff time round {{[-i|--increment]}} 15 {{[-s|--smallest]}} minute`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Convert a time between two different time zone:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`TZ='Japan' biff time in America/New_York 02:30`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Print a past or future time relative to current time:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`biff time add {{-1d|1d|1w|-1m|1y|...}} now`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Add a complex duration to the current time:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`biff time add '1 week, 12 hours ago' now`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Find the duration since a date in the past and round it to the desired precision:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`biff span since 2025-01-20T12:00 {{[-l|--largest]}} year`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Find timestamps in a log file and reformat them into your local time in place:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`biff tag lines /tmp/access.log | biff time in system | biff time fmt {{[-f|--format]}} '%c' | head {{[-n|--lines]}} 3 | biff untag {{[-s|--substitute]}}`
