pub fn datetime_full() -> impl Strategy<Value = DateTime<Utc>>
Expand description
Returns a strategy that produces an arbitrary chrono::DateTime<Utc>
,
based on the full valid range of the type.
Both the seconds and nanoseconds values are randomised, including leap seconds: https://docs.rs/chrono/0.4.19/chrono/naive/struct.NaiveTime.html#leap-second-handling
Wherever possible, Zebra should handle leap seconds by:
- making durations and intervals 3 seconds or longer,
- avoiding complex time-based calculations, and
- avoiding relying on subsecond precision or time order.
When monotonic times are needed, use the opaque std::time::Instant
type.
ยงUsage
Zebra uses these times internally, typically via Utc::now
.
Some parts of the Zcash network protocol (Version
messages) also use times
with an 8-byte seconds value. Unlike this function, they have zero
nanoseconds values. (So they never have chrono
leap seconds.)
