This package helps PHP developers work with and convert .NET ticks, a form of precise time measurement used by the .NET `DateTime` object.

Features
--------

[](#features)

You can use this library to do the following, and more.

- Convert ticks to timestamp
- Convert ticks to `DateTime` object
- Convert ticks to `Carbon` date object
- Get the current time in ticks
- Convert timestamp to ticks

What are .NET ticks?
--------------------

[](#what-are-net-ticks)

> A single tick represents one hundred nanoseconds or one ten-millionth of a second. There are 10,000 ticks in a millisecond, or 10 million ticks in a second.

> The value of this property \[`DateTime.Ticks`\] represents the number of 100-nanosecond intervals that have elapsed since 12:00:00 midnight, January 1, 0001 (0:00:00 UTC on January 1, 0001, in the Gregorian calendar), which represents DateTime.MinValue. It does not include the number of ticks that are attributable to leap seconds.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The PHP .NET Ticks package can be easily installed using Composer. Just run the following command from the root of your project.

```
composer require jord-jd/php-dot-net-ticks

```

If you have never used the Composer dependency manager before, head to the [Composer website](https://getcomposer.org/) for more information on how to get started.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

First you need to create a new `Ticks` object. This can be done in several ways.

```
use JordJD\DotNetTicks\Ticks;

// Current time
$ticks = new Ticks();

// Specific time in ticks
$ticks = new Ticks(636536021491253348);

// From timestamp
$ticks = Ticks::createFromTimestamp(1518005349);
```

You can then call methods on the `Ticks` object to retrieve or convert as necessary.

```
$ticks = $ticks->ticks();       // Ticks

$time = $ticks->timestamp();    // UNIX timstamp

$dateTime = $ticks->dateTime(); // PHP DateTime object
$carbon = $ticks->carbon();     // Carbon date object
```

If you wish, you can combine these two steps into one line, as shown in the examples below.

```
// Get current time in ticks
$nowInTicks = (new Ticks())->ticks();

// Convert ticks to timestamp
$timestamp = (new Ticks(636536021491253348))->timestamp();

// Convert timestamp to ticks
$ticks = Ticks::createFromTimestamp(1518005349)->ticks();
```
