aweXpect.Chronology

Extension methods for creating chronology objects like TimeSpan or DateTime that read more natural.

TimeSpan

Add the following extension methods on int and double that allow creating a TimeSpan:

• .Milliseconds()
• .Seconds()
• .Minutes()
• .Hours()
• .Days()

// ↓ Using traditional creation of TimeSpan
TimeSpan timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10);
TimeSpan timeout = 10.Seconds();
// ↑ Using the extension methods from this library

It is also possible to combine multiple extension methods:

TimeSpan timeout = 1.Minutes(30.Seconds());

DateTime

Add extension methods on int for each month that allow creating a DateTime:

// ↓ Using traditional creation of DateTime
DateTime time = new DateTime(2024, 12, 24);
DateTime time = 24.December(2024);
// ↑ Using the extension methods from this library

It is also possible to specify a time:

DateTime time = 24.December(2024).At(18, 30);

It is also possible combine this with the TimeSpan extensions:

DateTime time = 3.Hours().Before(25.December(2024));
