MfGames.Nitride.Temporal

=> Up a Level

The package MfGames.Nitride.Temporal extends Nitride with time- and date-centric operations, extensions, and processes. It allows a site to be hide future posts, create a calendar of entries, or create a nested set of pages based on year, month, and day.

dotnet add package MfGames.Nitride.Temporal

This also has an extension method to include it into the builder.

        public static async Task Main(string[] args)
        {
            NitrideBuilder builder = new NitrideBuilder(args)
                .UseTemporal(
                    config =>
                    {
                        config
                            .WithDateTimeZone("America/Chicago")
                            .WithDateOptionCommandLineOption();
                    });

            return await builder.RunAsync();
        }

NodaTime and Instants

This library is built on top of NodaTime[1], provides good time zone support, and had date-only objects before they were available in the base library.

In most cases, adding an Instant to an entity is sufficient to use most of the temporal functionality.

Instant instant;

var entityList = new Entity[]
{
    new Entity(instant),
};

var op = context.Resolve();

var filteredList = entityList.Run(op).ToList();

Options

When the WithDateOptionCommandLineOption() is included in the module setup, it injects a --date option into the builders that allows a different date to be used for the “now” date which can be retrieved from the injectable TimeService as CurrentInstant and CurrentDateTime.
