Hi.

The dateutils suite contains a code that can add date/time durations: dadd. However, the format of the durations needs to be not in a form like 1:51:59, but rather 1h51m59s. That can be done with a little pipeline, and then presented to dadd, like so:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# @(#) s1       Demonstrate addition of a list of times, dateutils.dadd

# Utility functions: print-as-echo, print-line-with-visual-space, debug.
# export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"
LC_ALL=C ; LANG=C ; export LC_ALL LANG
pe() { for _i;do printf "%s" "$_i";done; printf "\n"; }
pl() { pe;pe "-----" ;pe "$*"; }
em() { pe "$*" >&2 ; }
db() { ( printf " db, ";for _i;do printf "%s" "$_i";done;printf "\n" ) >&2 ; }
db() { : ; }
C=$HOME/bin/context && [ -f $C ] && $C dateutils.dadd

list="1:11:59 0:13:58 2:06:57 1:38:56 1:36:55 0:06:54 0:31:53 0:33:52 0:38:51 0:44:50"

pl " Input data list:"
pe "$list"

pl " Input list modified:"
v1=$( echo "$list" |
tr ' ' '\n' |
sed 's/:/h/;s/:/m/;s/$/s/' |
tr '\n' ' ')
echo "$v1"

pl " Results:"
dateutils.dadd -f "%T" 00:00:00 $v1 

exit 0

producing:

Code:

$ ./s1

Environment: LC_ALL = C, LANG = C

OS, ker|rel, machine: Linux, 3.16.0-4-amd64, x86_64
