Date

formatting...

Format and create dates.

Format

Initial value can, other than a parseable datetime string, be now. Each time the variable is accessed the value will represent that date and time at the time of access.

Arguments

Name Type Description Default
format str python strftime format string required
timezone str valid timezone name None (local)
offset str time span string describing the offset, Y = years, M = months, D = days, h = hours, m = minutes, s = seconds, e.g. 1Y-2M10D None

Example

And value for variable "AtomicDate.arrival" is "now | format='%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.000Z', timezone=UTC"

This can then be used in a template:

{
    "arrival": "{{ AtomicDate.arrival }}",
    "location": "Port of Shanghai"
}
