Some questions regarding durations

Open stefanholzmueller opened this issue 6 years ago • 7 comments

  1. There is Data.Time.Duration and also Data.Interval.Duration and I wonder what the difference is. Data.Time.Duration is used for functions like adjust and diff, while Data.Interval.Duration seems to be mostly about parsing and formatting of ISO8601 durations? Is one of them deprecated? Is there a conceptual difference that I fail to see?

  2. Is there a way to format durations in a human-readable fashion? E.g. neither "643257 milliseconds" nor "0,051 days" but in a multi-unit format like "2 days, 15h, 45min"? (this is probably related to purescript formatters, but the calculation might belong to this package)

  3. I realized that the documentation in Pursuit is not up-to-date (the latest version is 3.2.0). Could somebody please update it?
