go-str2duration
A Go package that converts strings to time.Duration with support for weeks and days.
What is go-str2duration?
go-str2duration is a Go library that converts human-readable duration strings into Go's native `time.Duration` type. It solves the limitation of Go's standard `time.ParseDuration` by adding support for weeks and days, allowing developers to parse longer time intervals easily. The library maintains full compatibility with standard duration strings while providing a cleaner, more readable format for output.
Go developers who need to parse or represent durations longer than hours, such as in configuration files, CLI tools, or applications dealing with scheduling, timeouts, or interval calculations.
Developers choose go-str2duration because it seamlessly extends Go's built-in time parsing with week and day support, offers a cleaner string representation than the standard library, and maintains full backward compatibility with existing `time.Duration` strings.
