CSharpEssentials.Time

Testable time abstraction built on .NET TimeProvider. Decouple your code from the system clock for reliable unit testing.

Features

  • IDateTimeProvider — Injectable interface for UtcNow, UtcNowDateTime, UtcNowDate, and UtcNowTime.
  • TimeProvider Integration — Works with .NET's built-in TimeProvider and FakeTimeProvider for testing.
  • DateTime Extensions — Convert DateTime to DateOnly and TimeOnly.

Installation

dotnet add package CSharpEssentials.Time

Usage

DateTimeProvider

using CSharpEssentials.Time;

public class OrderService(IDateTimeProvider time)
{
    public Order CreateOrder()
    {
        return new Order
        {
            CreatedAt = time.UtcNow,
            CreatedDate = time.UtcNowDate
        };
    }
}

Dependency Injection

builder.Services.AddSingleton<TimeProvider>(TimeProvider.System);
builder.Services.AddSingleton<IDateTimeProvider, DateTimeProvider>();

Testing with FakeTimeProvider

using Microsoft.Extensions.Time.Testing;

FakeTimeProvider fakeTime = new();
fakeTime.SetUtcNow(new DateTimeOffset(2025, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, TimeSpan.Zero));

IDateTimeProvider provider = new DateTimeProvider(fakeTime);
provider.UtcNow.Year.Should().Be(2025);

Extensions

DateTime now = DateTime.UtcNow;

DateOnly date = now.ToDateOnly();
TimeOnly time = now.ToTimeOnly();
