# Instant
If you call `std::time::Instant::now()` on a WASM platform, it will panic. This crate provides a partial
replacement for `std::time::Instant` that works on WASM too. This defines the type `instant::Instant` which is:
* A struct emulating the behavior of **std::time::Instant** if you are targeting `wasm32-unknown-unknown` or `wasm32-unknown-asmjs`
**and** you enabled either the `stdweb` or the `wasm-bindgen` feature. This emulation is based on the javascript `performance.now()` function.
* A type alias for `std::time::Instant` otherwise.
Note that even if the **stdweb** or **wasm-bindgen** feature is enabled, this crate will continue to rely on `std::time::Instant`
as long as you are not targeting wasm32. This allows for portable code that will work on both native and WASM platforms.
This crate also exports the function `instant::now()` which returns a representation of the current time as an `f64`, expressed in milliseconds, in a platform-agnostic way. `instant::now()` will either:
* Call `performance.now()` when compiling for a WASM platform with the features **stdweb** or **wasm-bindgen** enabled, or using a custom javascript function.
* Return the time elapsed since the *Unix Epoch* on *native*, *non-WASM* platforms.
*Note*: The old feature, `now`, has been deprecated. `instant::now()` is always exported and the `now` feature flag no longer has any effect. It remains listed in `Cargo.toml` to avoid introducing breaking changes and may be removed in future versions.
## Examples
### Using `instant` for a native platform.
_Cargo.toml_:
```toml
[dependencies]
instant = "0.1"
```
_main.rs_:
```rust
fn main() {
// Will be the same as `std::time::Instant`.
let now = instant::Instant::now();
}
```
-----
### Using `instant` for a WASM platform.
This example shows the use of the `stdweb` feature. It would be similar with `wasm-bindgen`.
_Cargo.toml_:
```toml
[dependencies]
instant = { version = "0.1", features = [ "stdweb" ] }
```
_main.rs_:
```rust
fn main() {
// Will emulate `std::time::Instant` based on `performance.now()`.
let now = instant::Instant::now();
}
```
-----
### Using `instant` for a WASM platform where `performance.now()` is not available.
This example shows the use of the `inaccurate` feature.
_Cargo.toml_:
```toml
[dependencies]
instant = { version = "0.1", features = [ "wasm-bindgen", "inaccurate" ] }
```
_main.rs_:
```rust
fn main() {
// Will emulate `std::time::Instant` based on `Date.now()`.
let now = instant::Instant::now();
}
```
-----
### Using `instant` for any platform enabling a feature transitively.
_Cargo.toml_:
```toml
[features]
stdweb = [ "instant/stdweb" ]
wasm-bindgen = [ "instant/wasm-bindgen" ]
[dependencies]
instant = "0.1"
```
_lib.rs_:
```rust
fn my_function() {
// Will select the proper implementation depending on the
// feature selected by the user.
let now = instant::Instant::now();
}
```
-----
### Using `instant::now()`
_Cargo.toml_:
```toml
[features]
stdweb = [ "instant/stdweb" ]
wasm-bindgen = [ "instant/wasm-bindgen" ]
[dependencies]
instant = "0.1"
```
_lib.rs_:
```rust
fn my_function() {
// Will select the proper implementation depending on the
// feature selected by the user.
let now_instant = instant::Instant::now();
let now_milliseconds = instant::now(); // In milliseconds.
}
```
### Using the feature `now` without `stdweb` or `wasm-bindgen`.
_Cargo.toml_:
```toml
[dependencies]
instant = "0.1"
```
_lib.rs_:
```rust
fn my_function() {
// Will use the 'now' javascript implementation.
let now_instant = instant::Instant::now();
let now_milliseconds = instant::now(); // In milliseconds.
}
```
_javascript WASM bindings file_:
```js
function now() {
return Date.now() / 1000.0;
}
```
