Add optional time to dates

Open cblp opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

Probable solution:

-- | Day and Maybe Time
type DMT = Either Day UTCTime

Day is treated in current time zone, UTCTime is UTC

With timezone

use a string. Specifically, use the full qualified name in the Olson database, so something like Australia/Adelaide or America/Los_Angeles. These are standardized descriptors of the timezones used in the world, and you can use these in pretty much every programming language ever used in the last few decades.
