Timex.shift is probably the best reference: https://hexdocs.pm/timex/Timex.html#shift/2
Keep in mind it has many pitfalls, especially related to timezones and multiple calendars, so it is probably necessary to draft a proposal before. There is also a debate of which module it should be defined at, maybe even "Calendar.shift/2". Also note it is named "shift" on purpose, as temporal operations aren't really arithmetic. :) On Sun, Oct 22, 2023 at 10:39 AM gpopides <giwrgos...@gmail.com> wrote: > Based on Jose's comment in this post > <https://elixirforum.com/t/why-doesnt-elixir-support-standard-operator-overloading/59141/19?u=gpopides> > > > but I would be 90% as a happy if we had Date.shift(date, months: 1, > days: 10) in Elixir (PRs are welcome, I consider this to be the last > calendar feature missing in Elixir). > > I would like give it a try, would you mind explaining what's missing? > > Is it adding more than days (months, years) using Date.add/2 > <https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/1.12/Date.html#add/2>, similar to Java's > LocalDate.addDays(), LocalDate.addMonths() and so on? > > If yes, i would like to give it a try > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "elixir-lang-core" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to elixir-lang-core+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elixir-lang-core/a5e4404f-e77f-468f-8e8b-0c0812523f39n%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elixir-lang-core/a5e4404f-e77f-468f-8e8b-0c0812523f39n%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
