✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, gather round 💖 this is DateTime::Format::Epoch::RataDie — she converts DateTimes to and from Rata Die. that's it, that's the whole gig, and she ate 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, here's how you actually use her:

use DateTime::Format::Epoch::RataDie;

my $dt = DateTime::Format::Epoch::RataDie->parse_datetime( $count );

DateTime::Format::Epoch::RataDie->format_datetime($dt);
 # $count

my $formatter = DateTime::Format::Epoch::RataDie->new();
my $dt2 = $formatter->parse_datetime( $count );
$formatter->format_datetime($dt2);

no cap, that's the whole vibe check right there. ✨

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so this module can convert a DateTime object — or literally any object that can be converted to a DateTime object — to the Rata Die count. 🦋

and if you want the actual description of how that works? go read DateTime::Format::Epoch::JD, she explains it. this one's just here to be cute and do the conversion. iykyk 💜

👑 METHODS 👑

most of the methods are the same as those in DateTime::Format::Epoch. the only difference is the constructor. that's it. one little glow-up. periodt. 💅

• new() — constructor of the formatter/parser object. she has no parameters, she's low maintenance, she's iconic 🎀
