21 ;;; Commentary:
23 ;; This library provides tools to manipulate durations. A duration
24 ;; can have multiple formats:
26 ;; - 3:12
27 ;; - 1:23:45
28 ;; - 1y 3d 3h 4min
29 ;; - 3d 13:35
30 ;; - 2.35h
32 ;; More accurately, it consists of numbers and units, as defined in
33 ;; variable `org-duration-units', separated with white spaces, and
34 ;; a "H:MM" or "H:MM:SS" part. White spaces are tolerated between the
35 ;; number and its relative unit. Variable `org-duration-format'
36 ;; controls durations default representation.
38 ;; The library provides functions allowing to convert a duration to,
39 ;; and from, a number of minutes: `org-duration-to-minutes' and
40 ;; `org-duration-from-minutes'. It also provides two lesser tools:
41 ;; `org-duration-p', and `org-duration-h:mm-only-p'.
43 ;; Users can set the number of minutes per unit, or define new units,
44 ;; in `org-duration-units'. The library also supports canonical
45 ;; duration, i.e., a duration that doesn't depend on user's settings,
46 ;; through optional arguments.
48 ;;; Code:
50 (require 'cl-lib)
51 (require 'org-macs)
52 (declare-function org-trim "org-trim" (s &optional keep-lead))
55 ;;; Public variables
57 (defconst org-duration-canonical-units
58 `(("min" . 1)
59 ("h" . 60)
60 ("d" . ,(* 60 24)))
61 "Canonical time duration units.
62 See `org-duration-units' for details.")
64 (defcustom org-duration-units
65 `(("min" . 1)
66 ("h" . 60)
67 ("d" . ,(* 60 24))
68 ("w" . ,(* 60 24 7))
69 ("m" . ,(* 60 24 30))
70 ("y" . ,(* 60 24 365.25)))
71 "Conversion factor to minutes for a duration.
73 Each entry has the form (UNIT . MODIFIER).
75 In a duration string, a number followed by UNIT is multiplied by
76 the specified number of MODIFIER to obtain a duration in minutes.
78 For example, the following value
80 \\=`((\"min\" . 1)
81 (\"h\" . 60)
82 (\"d\" . ,(* 60 8))
83 (\"w\" . ,(* 60 8 5))
84 (\"m\" . ,(* 60 8 5 4))
85 (\"y\" . ,(* 60 8 5 4 10)))
87 is meaningful if you work an average of 8 hours per day, 5 days
88 a week, 4 weeks a month and 10 months a year.
90 When setting this variable outside the Customize interface, make
91 sure to call the following command:

101 (const :tag "H:MM:SS" 'h:mm:ss)
102 (alist :key-type (string :tag "Unit")
103 :value-type (number :tag "Modifier"))))
105 (defcustom org-duration-format '(("d" . nil) (special . h:mm))
106 "Format definition for a duration.
108 The value can be set to, respectively, `h:mm:ss' or `h:mm', which
109 means a duration is expressed as, respectively, a \"H:MM:SS\" or
110 \"H:MM\" string.
112 Alternatively, the value can be a list of entries following the
113 pattern:
115 (UNIT . REQUIRED?)
117 UNIT is a unit string, as defined in `org-duration-units'. The
118 time duration is formatted using only the time components that
119 are specified here. If a time unit in missing, it falls back to
120 the next smallest unit.
122 A non-nil REQUIRED? value for these keys indicates that the
123 corresponding time component should always be included, even if
124 its value is 0.
126 Eventually, the list can contain one of the following special
127 entries:
129 (special . h:mm)
130 (special . h:mm:ss)
132 Units shorter than an hour are ignored. The hours and
133 minutes part of the duration is expressed unconditionally
134 with H:MM, or H:MM:SS, pattern.
136 (special . PRECISION)
138 A duration is expressed with a single unit, PRECISION being
139 the number of decimal places to show. The unit chosen is the
140 first one required or with a non-zero integer part. If there
141 is no such unit, the smallest one is used.
143 For example,
145 ((\"d\" . nil) (\"h\" . t) (\"min\" . t))
147 means a duration longer than a day is expressed in days, hours
148 and minutes, whereas a duration shorter than a day is always
149 expressed in hours and minutes, even when shorter than an hour.
151 On the other hand, the value
153 ((\"d\" . nil) (\"min\" . nil))
155 means a duration longer than a day is expressed in days and
156 minutes, whereas a duration shorter than a day is expressed
157 entirely in minutes, even when longer than an hour.
159 The following format
161 ((\"d\" . nil) (special . h:mm))
163 means that any duration longer than a day is expressed with both
164 a \"d\" unit and a \"H:MM\" part, whereas a duration shorter than
165 a day is expressed only as a \"H:MM\" string.
167 Eventually,
169 ((\"d\" . nil) (\"h\" . nil) (special . 2))
171 expresses a duration longer than a day as a decimal number, with
172 a 2-digits fractional part, of \"d\" unit. A duration shorter
173 than a day uses \"h\" unit instead."
