Metadata - Date

This page is about the string date format accepted by ComboStrap.

All date as the published date, start/end date are written in this format as string. You will then find them back in this format in the frontmatter.

Combostrap understand all the following format as date:

YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS+hh:mm // iso 8601 format
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS+hh:mm // timestamp format
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS 
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
YYYY-MM-DD HH
YYYY-MM-DD

where:

• YYY-MM-DD is the day part and is the only one mandatory. For instance for the first January of 2021: 2021-01-01
• T is a separator used in ISO8601 format between the day and time part (optional, handy when copying)
• HH:MM:SS is the time part. For instance, for 2 hour pm, 15 minutes and 20 seconds: 14:15:20
• +hh:mm is a positive or negative time offsets from the UTC timezone (ie London). For instance, Europe/Paris (one hour timezone from London) +01:00

• at the day level, the default time is midnight, ie 2021-03-15 00:00:00+00:00

{
   "date_published":"2021-03-15"
}

• at the hour level (10 hour), the default minute and second are null. ie 2021-03-15 10:00:00

{
   "date_published":"2021-03-15 10"
}

The dates are all located in the timezone of your server

For instance, a date with the Europe/Paris timezone.

{
   "date_published":"2021-03-15 10:00:00+01:00"
}
