The clockwork package has a
Since
method for measuring duration between a time in the past and the current time.The go standard lib
time
has anUntil
method, in addition toSince
.There's quite a few cases (at least, in my software) where it would be far 'neater' to have
Until
than doing the negative ofSince
.This PR adds an
Until
method to the clock interface, with tests.I am not sure on what the general philosophy around this package is - i.e. if you even want
Until
, but I thought it would be worthwhile to open a PR.Thank you for your work on Clockwork, I would be delighted to have any feedback to try and make my contributions better 😄
