Hi - this bothers me because every time when I wan't to add longer period of time I need to manually calculate the number instead of use something built in or use erlang.
`DateTime.add(DateTime.utc_now(), :timer.hours(-30 * 24), :millisecond)` . Erlang has up to 1hour shortcut functions - but 1day still is 24h and everytime let's say we wan't to expire some old data from database then DateTime.add(-30, :days) is still plenty good for most of the cases. In python timedelta you can specify also weeks: ``` from datetime import timedelta delta = timedelta( days=50, seconds=27, microseconds=10, milliseconds=29000, minutes=5, hours=8, weeks=2 ) ``` -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
