NAME
Date::LibICal - Perl wrapper for libical
SYNOPSIS
use Date::LibICal;
my @all_timeslots_in_epoch = Date::LibICal::expand_recurrence(
'FREQ=MONTHLY;UNTIL=20130131T000000Z;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO',
);alternatively with a fixed start Date
use Date::LibICal;
use Date::Time;
my @timeslots_in_epoch = Date::LibICal::expand_recurrence(
'FREQ=MONTHLY;UNTIL=20130131T000000Z;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO',
DateTime->new( year => 2012, month => 1, day => 1)->epoch,
);or with a fixed start Date and a max count of results:
use Date::LibICal;
use Date::Time;
my @timeslots_in_epoch = Date::LibICal::expand_recurrence(
'FREQ=MONTHLY;UNTIL=20130131T000000Z;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO',
DateTime->new( year => 2012, month => 1, day => 1)->epoch,
10,
);To convert any of the results into something useful you can
use DateTime;
print
join "\n",
map {
DateTime->from_epoch( epoch => $_ );
} @timeslots_in_epoch;DESCRIPTION
