talking HTML templates in #indiewebcamp, @KevinMarks asked for datetime, so I made a formatting format (yo dawg...)
tl;dr: YYYY YY MM M DDD DD D MONTH MNTH DAY DY 24HH 24H HH H MM SS TH AM PM TZ TZH TZO
Not obvious what those expand to?
For an example date and time of:
2001-02-03 4:05:06pm PST
YYYY = 2001
YY = 01
MM = 02
M = 2
DDD = 034
DD = 03
D = 3
MONTH = February
MNTH = Feb
DAY = Saturday
DY = Sat
24HH = 16
24H = 16 (no leading zero, e.g. at midnight = 0)
HH = 04
H = 4
MM = 05
SS = 06
TH = ordinal suffix for preceding number, e.g. with M, D, H:
MTH = 2nd
DTH = 3rd
HTH = 4th
AM|PM = pm (both AM & PM - use either without guessing)
TZ = PST
TZH = -08:00
TZO = -0800
Thus the above example date and time of
2001-02-03 4:05:06pm PST
would have been output formatted with:
YYYY-MM-DD H:MM:SSAM TZ
Did I miss anything that's published on real world indieweb sites?
