View Source Timex.Format.DateTime.Formatters.Default (timex v3.7.9)
Date formatting language used by default by the formatting functions in Timex.
This is a novel formatting language introduced with DateFormat. Its main
advantage is simplicity and usage of mnemonics that are easy to memorize.
directive-format
Directive format
A directive is an optional padding specifier followed by a mnemonic, all enclosed
in braces ({ and }):
{<padding><mnemonic>}Supported padding specifiers:
0-- pads the number with zeros. Applicable to mnemonics that produce numerical result._-- pads the number with spaces. Applicable to mnemonics that produce numerical result.
When padding specifier is omitted, numbers will not be padded.

compound-directives
Compound directives
These are shortcut directives corresponding to parts of the ISO 8601 specification. The benefit of using these over manually constructed ISO formats is that these directives convert the date to UTC for you.
{ISO:Basic}-<date>T<time><offset>.Full date and time specification without separators.
{ISO:Basic:Z}-<date>T<time>Z.Full date and time in UTC without separators (e.g.
20070813T134801Z){ISO:Extended}-<date>T<time><offset>.Full date and time specification with separators. (e.g.
2007-08-13T16:48:01 +03:00){ISO:Extended:Z}-<date>T<time>Z.Full date and time in UTC. (e.g.
2007-08-13T13:48:01Z){ISOdate}-YYYY-MM-DD.That is, 4-digit year number, followed by 2-digit month and day numbers (e.g.
2007-08-13){ISOtime}-hh:mm:ss.That is, 2-digit hour, minute, and second, separated by colons (e.g.
13:04:05). Midnight is 00 hours.{ISOweek}-YYYY-Www.That is, ISO week-based year, followed by ISO week number (e.g.
2007-W09){ISOweek-day}-YYYY-Www-D.That is, an
{ISOweek}, additionally followed by weekday (e.g.2007-W09-1){ISOord}-YYYY-DDD.That is, year number, followed by the ordinal day number (e.g.
2007-113){ASN1:UTCtime}-YYMMDD<time>Z.Full 2-digit year date and time in UTC without separators (e.g.
070813134801Z){ASN1:GeneralizedTime}-YYYYMMDD<time>.Full 4-digit year date and time in local timezone without separators and with optional fractional seconds (e.g.
20070813134801.032){ASN1:GeneralizedTime:Z}-YYYYMMDD<time>Z.Full 4-digit year date and time in UTC without separators and with optional fractional seconds (e.g.
20070813134801.032Z){ASN1:GeneralizedTime:TZ}-YYYYMMDD<time><offset>.Full 4-digit year date and time in UTC without separators and with optional fractional seconds (e.g.
20070813134801.032-0500)
These directives provide support for miscellaneous common formats:
{RFC822}- e.g.Mon, 05 Jun 14 23:20:59 UT{RFC822z}- e.g.Mon, 05 Jun 14 23:20:59 Z{RFC1123}- e.g.Tue, 05 Mar 2013 23:25:19 +0200{RFC1123z}- e.g.Tue, 05 Mar 2013 23:25:19 Z{RFC3339}- e.g.2013-03-05T23:25:19+02:00{RFC3339z}- e.g.2013-03-05T23:25:19Z{ANSIC}- e.g.Tue Mar 5 23:25:19 2013{UNIX}- e.g.Tue Mar 5 23:25:19 PST 2013{ASN1:UTCtime}- e.g.130305232519Z{ASN1:GeneralizedTime}- e.g.20130305232519.928{ASN1:GeneralizedTime:Z}- e.g.20130305232519.928Z{ASN1:GeneralizedTime:TZ}- e.g.20130305232519.928-0500{kitchen}- e.g.3:25PM
