The standard package for working with dates and times in Haskell, __time__, is
/awkward/. That's a subjective judgment, but over the years there have been
few areas more frustrating than trying to do pragmatic things with calendars
and clocks. This module represents some opinionated approaches to working with
times and dates, and a place to collect some hard-won idioms for converting
between things.
Our original use was wanting to conveniently measure things happening on
distributed computer systems. Since machine clock cycles are in units of
nanoseconds, this has the nice property that, assuming the system clock is not
corrupted, two subsequent events from the same source process are likely to
have monotonically increasing timestamps. And even if the system clock goes to
hell, they're still decently likely to be unique per device. Make for good
keys.
So the timestamp type herein 'Time' is nanoseconds since the Unix epoch; which
in (signed) 64 bits means that you can represent times between early in the
morning of 21 September 1677 through just before midnight on 11 April 2262.
The primary use isn't doing calendaring, though; it's just working with
machine generated timestamps in distributed systems and for conveying start
and end times around in your program.
There are quite a few other time formats around the Haskell ecosystem. You can
use the 'fromTime' and 'intoTime' methods of the 'Instant' typeclass to
convert from one to another if you need to.

Number of nanoseconds since the Unix epoch.
The 'Show' and 'Core.Encoding.External.Externalize' instances display the
'Time' as seconds with the nanosecond precision expressed as a decimal amount
after the interger, ie:
>>> t <- getCurrentTimeNanoseconds
>>> formatExternal t
"2014-07-31T23:09:35.274387031Z"
However this doesn't change the fact the underlying representation counts
nanoseconds since epoch:
>>> show $ unTime t
"1406848175274387031"
There is a 'Externalize' instance that is reasonably accommodating:
>>> parseExternal "2014-07-31T13:05:04.942089001Z" :: Maybe Time
Just 2014-07-31T13:05:04.942089001Z
>>> parseExternal "1406811904.942089001" :: Maybe Time
Just 2014-07-31T13:05:04.942089001Z
>>> parseExternal "1406811904" :: Maybe Time
Just 2014-07-31T13:05:04.000000000Z
In case you're wondering, the valid range of nanoseconds that fits into the
underlying 'Int64' is:
>>> formatExternal (minBound :: Time)
"1677-09-21T00:12:43.145224192Z"
>>> formatExternal (maxBound :: Time)
"2262-04-11T23:47:16.854775807Z"
so in a quarter millenium's time, yes, you'll have the Y2262 Problem.
Haskell code from today will, of course, still be running, so in the mid
Twenty-Third century you will need to replace this implementation with
something else.

If you need to manipulate the date or calculate elapsed time then you can
dig out the underlying 'Int64' here. We have /not/ provided instances of
'Num', 'Real', or 'Integral' for the timestamp type because adding two
timestamps doesn't really make sense. You can use 'intoTime' to reconstruct a
timestamp subsequently if necessary.

Convert between different representations of time. Our 'Time' timestamp has
nanosecond precision so converting from a type with lesser or greater
precision will require you to either pad with zeros or to round to the nearest
nanosecond (who the hell has picoseconds of anything anyway?) if writing an
instance of this type.
