Utilities for Dates and Times

Description

Utilities for handling dates and times, such as selecting particular days of the week or month, formatting timestamps as required by RSS feeds, or converting timestamp representations of other software (such as 'MATLAB' and 'Excel') to R. The package is lightweight (no dependencies, pure R implementations) and relies only on R's standard classes to represent dates and times ('Date' and 'POSIXt'); it aims to provide efficient implementations, through vectorisation and the use of R's native numeric representations of timestamps where possible.

Business Days

Description

Check whether a timestamp of class Date or POSIXt is a business day; compute past or future business days.

Usage

is_businessday(x, holidays = NULL)
is_weekend(x)
previous_businessday(x, holidays = NULL, shift = -1)
prev_bday(x, holidays = NULL, shift = -1)
next_businessday(x, holidays = NULL, shift = 1)
next_bday(x, holidays = NULL, shift = 1)

is_businessday(x, holidays = NULL)
is_weekend(x)
previous_businessday(x, holidays = NULL, shift = -1)
prev_bday(x, holidays = NULL, shift = -1)
next_businessday(x, holidays = NULL, shift = 1)
next_bday(x, holidays = NULL, shift = 1)

Arguments

`x`	a vector of class `Date` or `POSIXct`
`holidays`	A vector of class `Date`, or a character vector in a format that is understood by `as.Date`, or anything that can be coerced to class `Date` by `as.Date` (e.g. `POSIXt`).
`shift`	integer

Details

is_weekend checks whether a given date is a Saturday or Sunday.

previous_businessday takes a Date x and returns the last non-weekend day before. When shift is less than -1, the function evaluates to the shift-th previous day. When shift is 0, the function will return x if it is a business day, else the previous business day. next_businessday works analogously. There are shorter-named versions next_bday and prev_bday.

Value

Logical.

Convert Various Formats to Date

Description

Convert dates in external formats (e.g. from MATLAB) to Date or POSIXct.

Usage

convert_date(x, type, fraction = FALSE, tz = "")
convert_date(x, type, fraction = FALSE, tz = "")

Arguments

`x`	numeric
`type`	character: `"excel"`, `"excel1904"`, `"matlab"` and `"spss"`/`"pspp"` are supported.
`fraction`	logical: should fractional dates (i.e. times) be used? Default is `FALSE`.
`tz`	character: if fraction is TRUE, then what time zone is to be assumed? Default is `""`, i.e. the local time zone.

Details

Convert the numeric representation of a date to class Date. Note that different versions of Excel use different origins: 1900-01-01 or 1904-01-01. For the latter, set type to "excel1904". For the former, convert_date uses 1899-12-31 because Excel considers 1900 a leap year (which it is not). So dates before 1 March 1900 are probably wrong (off by one day).

Value

A vector of class Date, or POSIXct if fraction is TRUE.

Author(s)

Enrico Schumann; type spss/pspp suggested and based on a patch by J\"org Beyer

Examples

convert_date(40000, "excel")
convert_date(40000, "excel")

Convert a Timestamp from one Timezone to Another

Description

Convert a timestamp from one timezone to another.

Usage

convert_tz(datetime, from = "", to)
convert_tz(datetime, from = "", to)

Arguments

`datetime`	character: `YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS`
`from`	the timezone of datetime. If `""`, the local timezone is used.
`to`	to timezone to which datetime should be converted

Details

See timezones.

Be careful: if the specified timezone does not exist on your system, the function will not return an error.

Value

POSIXct

Handling and Manipulating Dates and Times

Description

Functions for manipulating vectors that inherit from class POSIXt or Date.

Usage

is_leapyear(x)

first_of_month(x)
end_of_month(x, shift = 0L)
end_of_previous_month(x)

first_of_year(x)
end_of_year(x, shift = 0L)
end_of_previous_year(x)

end_of_quarter(x, shift = 0L)

day_of_month(x)
day_of_month(x) <- value
mday(x)
mday(x) <- value

second(x, as.character = FALSE)
minute(x, as.character = FALSE)
hour(x, as.character = FALSE)
month(x, as.character = FALSE)
year(x, as.character = FALSE)

is_leapyear(x)

first_of_month(x)
end_of_month(x, shift = 0L)
end_of_previous_month(x)

first_of_year(x)
end_of_year(x, shift = 0L)
end_of_previous_year(x)

end_of_quarter(x, shift = 0L)

day_of_month(x)
day_of_month(x) <- value
mday(x)
mday(x) <- value

second(x, as.character = FALSE)
minute(x, as.character = FALSE)
hour(x, as.character = FALSE)
month(x, as.character = FALSE)
year(x, as.character = FALSE)

Arguments

`x`	a vector of class `Date`
`value`	a vector of integers
`shift`	integer
`as.character`	logical

Details

end_of_month returns the last calendar day of a given month. If shift is positive, then shift months into the future; if negative, the end of previous months. end_of_month(x, -1) is equivalent to end_of_previous_month(x). end_of_year works in the same way, but for calendar years.

mday is a wrapper for day_of_month.

Value

Vectors of class Date or POSIXct; or logical

Guess Timestamp Format

Description

Tries to convert a character vector to POSIXct.

Usage

guess_datetime(s, date.only = FALSE, within = FALSE, tz = "",
               try.patterns = NULL)
guess_datetime(s, date.only = FALSE, within = FALSE, tz = "",
               try.patterns = NULL)

Arguments

`s`	character
`date.only`	logical: try to guess dates only (if `TRUE`) or times as well (if `FALSE`)
`within`	logical: ignore surrounding text? Note that trailing text is always ignored, see `as.Date`.
`tz`	character: timezone to assume for times. Default is the current timezone. See argument `tz` in `as.POSIXct`
`try.patterns`	either `NULL` or a character vector. See Details and Examples.

Details

The function first coerces its argument to character. It then applies a list of patterns to each element of s. Let d be a numeric digit; then the rules are roughly those in the table below. (For the precise rules, see Examples below.)

original pattern	assumed format
`dddd-dd-dd dd:dd:dd`	`%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S`
`dd/dd/dddd dd:dd:dd`	`%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S`
`dd.dd.dddd dd:dd:dd`	`%d.%m.%Y %H:%M:%S`

The rules are followed in the given order; an element will be matched only once. If there is a match, strptime will be tried with the assumed format (when date.only is TRUE, as.Date will be tried). For elements that do not match any pattern or for which strptime fails, NA is returned.

Additional patterns can be specified as try.patterns. This must be a character vector with an even number of elements: the first of each pair of elements is used as the pattern in a regular expression; the second as the format string passed to strptime. See Examples.

Value

POSIXct

Warning

If you know the format of a timestamp, then do not use this function (use strptime instead). If you have no idea at all about the format of a timestamp, then do not use this function.

Functions for Computing Days of the Week

Description

Functions for computing a specifed day-of-week, such as ‘the last Friday of October 2015’.

Usage

last_weekday(weekday, x, shift = 0L,
             period = "month", before, inclusive = TRUE)
nth_weekday(weekday, x, n = 1L)
last_weekday(weekday, x, shift = 0L,
             period = "month", before, inclusive = TRUE)
nth_weekday(weekday, x, n = 1L)

Arguments

`x`	a vector of class `Date` (but only the `YYYY-MM` part is relevant)
`shift`	a vector of integers
`weekday`	an integer (`1` is Monday, `2` is Tuesday, and so on)
`period`	character. Currently ignored.
`before`	a `Date`. See also `inclusive`.
`inclusive`	logical. Is `before` meant is ‘before but including’?
`n`	an integer

Details

last_weekday computes the last day-of-the-week (specified as an integer 0 to 6, with Sunday being 0) in a given month, e.g. ‘the last Friday’. shift moves forward (when positive) or backward (when negative) by one week; see Examples.

nth_weekday gives the n-th day-of-the-week (specified as an integer 0 to 6, with Sunday being 0) of a given month, e.g. ‘the second Monday’.

Value

Compute Reference Dates

Description

Compute sequences of reference dates, such as last day of month or first day of quarter.

Usage

nth_day(timestamps, period = "month", n,
        start, end, business.days = FALSE,
        missing = "previous", index = FALSE)
nth_day(timestamps, period = "month", n,
        start, end, business.days = FALSE,
        missing = "previous", index = FALSE)

Arguments

`timestamps`	timestamps: a sorted vector of Dates
`period`	numeric or character: supported are `"week"`, `"month"`, `"quarter"`, `"halfyear"`, `"year"`. If numeric, period is interpreted as a month number, with January being 1. Also possible are month names, either English as in `month.name` or `month.abb`, or as defined in the current locale (see `strftime` format specification `"%b"` and `"%B"`).
`n`	numeric or character: currently supported are `"first"` and `"last"`. If numeric, it will be interpreted as the n-th day of the period.
`start`	`Date`
`end`	`Date`
`business.days`	logical
`missing`	character. Not supported yet.
`index`	logical. If `TRUE`, the indices (instead of actual timestamps) are returned.

Details

The function computes sequences of dates that are often used as reference dates, for instance in financial reporting: last day of the month or of the year, or a particular day of the month.

The function takes a vector of timestamps and returns a subset of these timestamps. Alternatively, a sequence of calendar days may be constructed by specifying start and end.

Value

A vector of timestamps or, if index is TRUE, a vector of integers.

Format Date and Time as Described in RFC 822

Description

Format a timestamp as described in RFC 822.

Usage

rfc822t(x, include.dow = TRUE)
rfc822t(x, include.dow = TRUE)

Arguments

`x`	a vector that can be coerced to `POSIXlt`
`include.dow`	logical; include the day of the week?

Details

Formats a timestamp as ‘%Y %H:%M:%S %z’, possibly prepending an abbreviated day-of-week. The function ignores the current locale: day-of-week and month names are in English. The format is required for timestamps in RSS feeds.

Value

a character vector

roundPOSIXt(t, interval, up = FALSE)

Arguments

`t`	a vector that inherits from class `POSIXt`
`interval`	A character string of the form “`num` `units`”, in which `num` is a number, and `units` is `sec`, `min`, `hour` or `day`. `num` and `units` must be separated by white space.
`up`	logical: round down (the default) or up?

Details

roundPOSIXt rounds an input of class POSIXt; it returns a vector of class POSIXct.

POSIXct Time Grid

Description

Build an equally-spaced sequence of POSIXct timestamps.

Usage

timegrid(from, to, interval,
         exclude.weekends = TRUE, holidays = NULL,
         fromHHMMSS = "080000", toHHMMSS = "220000")
timegrid(from, to, interval,
         exclude.weekends = TRUE, holidays = NULL,
         fromHHMMSS = "080000", toHHMMSS = "220000")

Arguments

`from`	a vector of length one that inherits from class `POSIXt`. If there from has a timezone attribute, it will be used for the grid.
`to`	a vector of length one that inherits from class `POSIXt`
`interval`	A character string like “`num` `units`”, in which `num` is a number, and `units` is `sec`, `min`, `hour` or `day`. `num` and `units` must be separated by white space.
`exclude.weekends`	logical; default is `TRUE`
`fromHHMMSS`	A character vector of length one like “`HHMMSS`”. Times-of-day earlier than `HHMMSS` are excluded from the grid. The applicable timezone will be taken from the `from` argument.
`toHHMMSS`	A character vector of length one like “`HHMMSS`”. Times-of-day later than `HHMMSS` are excluded from the grid. The applicable timezone will be taken from the `from` argument.
`holidays`	A vector of class `Date`, or a character vector in a format that is understood by `as.Date`, or anything that can be coerced to class `Date` by `as.Date` (eg, `POSIXt`).

Details

timegrid creates an equally-spaced grid of class POSIXct.

Value

a vector of class POSIXct (or a character vector of length zero, in case no valid points remain)

Timezone Names

Description

A mapping between tz database (a.k.a. Olson database) and Windows timezone names.

Usage

data("tznames")data("tznames")

Format

A data frame of the following 2 variables:

Windows: a character vector: the timezone names used under Windows and its applications (e.g. in Outlook calendars)
Olson: a character vector of the names returned by OlsonNames

Details

The data are auto-generated from file windowsZones.xml in the Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (https://cldr.unicode.org/). See https://www.unicode.org/copyright.html and https://www.unicode.org/license.html for the terms of use.

There is no 1-to-1 mapping between names: several Olson names typically map to a single Windows name.
