Dating

A Swift tool to simplify date and time calculation. OS X and iOS supported.

When you deal with date and time with Dating, just consider the real world years, months, days, hours, minutes and seconds. And the code will be more natural than the ordinary NSDate way.

Dating creates no new class and type, just extensions of NSDate, NSDateComponents and Int. So using Dating is simple, no need to consider modifying your existing data types or structures.

Installation

Directly add the Dating.swift file to your project.

How to use

Create a date with years, months, days, hours(optional), minutes(optional), and seconds(optional).

let dateA = NSDate(year: 2014, month: 10, day: 27)
let dateB = NSDate(year: 2014, month: 10, day: 27, hour: 3, minute: 13)

Calculate date use + and - operations.

let dateC = dateA + 1.year
let dateD = dateB - 25.second

The operations can be chained, of course.

let dateE = dateA + 2.year - 3.month + 5.day - 12.hour - 1.minute + 20.second
