Email::Date::Format(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Email::Date::Format(3)NAME
Email::Date::Format - produce RFC 2822 date strings
SYNOPSIS
use Email::Date::Format qw(email_date);
my $header = email_date($date->epoch);
Email::Simple->create(
header => [
Date => $header,
],
body => '...',
);
DESCRIPTION
This module provides a simple means for generating an RFC 2822 compliant datetime string. (In case you care, they're not RFC 822 dates,
because they use a four digit year, which is not allowed in RFC 822.)
FUNCTIONS
email_date
my $date = email_date; # now
my $date = email_date( time - 60*60 ); # one hour ago
"email_date" accepts an epoch value, such as the one returned by "time". It returns a string representing the date and time of the
input, as specified in RFC 2822. If no input value is provided, the current value of "time" is used.
"format_date" is exported only if requested.
email_gmdate
my $date = email_gmdate;
"email_gmdate" is identical to "email_date", but it will return a string indicating the time in Greenwich Mean Time, rather than local
time.
"format_gmdate" is exported only if requested.
