// Creating a new date
var date = Date<ShamsiDate>(1379,6,26);

Date adapters #
###Adding Adapters:
Before using Date you should register the types you want to use.
Date.addType<ShamsiDate>(ShamsiDate());
Date.addType<GregorianDate>(GregorianDate());
copied to clipboard
Setting a default adapter #
For setting an adapter as default, just register it with no generic type.
Date.addType(ShamsiDate());
...
// no generic type is used
var defaultDate = Date.now();
copied to clipboard
Implementing a new Date adapter #
class NewDateSystem extends DateAdapter with DateFormatter {
...
}
copied to clipboard
If you don't add the DateFormatter mixin, some methods on date will throw an exception:

formatter
monthName
weekDayName
formatted*
formatBuilder*

*: these might not throw exception if you don't use named parts.
Renaming Adapters #
If you don't like the name of a certain adapter, just extend it and register with the new class:
class Hijri extends IslamicDate {}
...
Date.addType<Hijri>(Hijri());
copied to clipboard
DateAdapter provided implementations #

GregorianDate
HijriDate
ShamsiDate

To use them, import abstract_date and
then register them using
Date.addType<T extends DateAdapter>() before using them.
