time::duration::parse

Time::Duration::Parse(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				Time::Duration::Parse(3pm)

NAME

       Time::Duration::Parse - Parse string that represents time duration

SYNOPSIS

	 use Time::Duration::Parse;

	 my $seconds = parse_duration("2 minutes and 3 seconds"); # 123

DESCRIPTION

       Time::Duration::Parse is a module to parse human readable duration strings like 2 minutes and 3 seconds to seconds.

       It does the opposite of duration_exact function in Time::Duration and is roundtrip safe. So, the following is always true.

	 use Time::Duration::Parse;
	 use Time::Duration;

	 my $seconds = int rand 100000;
	 is( parse_duration(duration_exact($seconds)), $seconds );

FUNCTIONS

       parse_duration
	     $seconds = parse_duration($string);

	   Parses duration string and returns seconds. When it encounters an error in a given string, it dies an exception saying "Unknown
	   timespec: blah blah blah". This function is exported by default.
