Description

This function respects time zone and encourages compact expressions.

Usage

time_in(x, ...)

Arguments

x

A vector of time index, such as classes POSIXct, Date, yearweek, yearmonth, yearquarter, hms/difftime, and numeric.

...

Formulas that specify start and end periods (inclusive) or strings.

• ~ end or . ~ end: from the very beginning to a specified ending period.

• start ~ end: from specified beginning to ending periods.

• start ~ .: from a specified beginning to the very end of the data. Supported index type: POSIXct (to seconds), Date, yearweek, yearmonth/yearmon, yearquarter/yearqtr, hms/difftime & numeric.

Value

logical vector

System Time Zone ("Europe/London")

There is a known issue of an extra hour gained for a machine setting time zone to "Europe/London", regardless of the time zone associated with the POSIXct inputs. It relates to anytime and Boost. Use Sys.timezone() to check if the system time zone is "Europe/London". It would be recommended to change the global environment "TZ" to other equivalent names: GB, GB-Eire, Europe/Belfast, Europe/Guernsey, Europe/Isle_of_Man and Europe/Jersey as documented in ?Sys.timezone(), using Sys.setenv(TZ = "GB") for example.

# more specific
lgl2 <- time_in(x, "2015-03-23 10" ~ "2015-10-31 12")
lgl2[1:10]

pedestrian %>%
