Time-Provider

A tiny library to rapidly have time !

Description

It's a very simple typescript library to setup a source of time. A time provider works with a compatible adapter (even for native Date or Temporal), so you must both import the core library and the plugin of your choice (See usage).

Core library

Name	NPM package
@time-provider/core

Plugins

Currently supported plugins are :

Plugin	Name	Returned Type	NPM package
Temporal	@time-provider/plugin-temporal	Instant
Native	@time-provider/plugin-native	Date
Luxon	@time-provider/plugin-luxon	DateTime
Day.js	@time-provider/plugin-dayjs	Dayjs
Moment.js	@time-provider/plugin-moment	Moment

Usage

• Each plugin (adapter) exports a TimeAdapter and a FixedTimeAdapter class
• Select your desired plugin (native/dayjs/moment/luxon/temporal)
• call createTimeProvider.for(/*your adapter here*/)

For your production code

import { createTimeProvider } from "@time-provider/core";
//Import the plugin of your choice (here the temporal plugin)
import { TimeAdapter } from "@time-provider/plugin-temporal";
import { Temporal } from "@js-temporal/polyfill";
const timeProvider = createTimeProvider.for(new TimeAdapter());

Or for your tests (fixed time)

import { createTimeProvider } from "@time-provider/core";
//Import the plugin of your choice (here the temporal plugin)
import { FixedTimeAdapter } from "@time-provider/plugin-temporal";
import { Temporal } from "@js-temporal/polyfill";
const fixedTimeProvider = createTimeProvider.for(
  new FixedTimeAdapter(Temporal.Instant.from("2026-01-01T00:00Z")),
);

API

interface ITimeProvider<TDate> {
  localNow(): TDate;
  utcNow(): TDate;
  parse(input: string | number | TDate): TDate;
}
