🌐 Gravity.GoogleMaps.TimeZoneBuilder

Gravity.GoogleMaps.TimeZoneBuilder is a fully type-safe, fluent, and extensible .NET URL builder for the Google Time Zone API. It helps you generate correct and validated Time Zone API request URLs β€” with full IntelliSense, compile-time safety, and built-in validation for coordinates, timestamps, languages, and required parameters.

πŸš€ Features

  • βœ… Fully type-safe and fluent API
  • πŸ“ Strong validation for latitude/longitude bounds
  • ⏱️ Automatic handling of Unix timestamps from DateTimeOffset
  • 🌐 Optional language support with format validation
  • πŸ” API key validation (can be disabled for testing)
  • βš™οΈ Options to disable URL encoding or return only query parameters
  • πŸ§ͺ Fully unit-tested (100% coverage on builders)

πŸ“¦ Installation

dotnet add package Gravity.GoogleMaps.TimeZoneBuilder

πŸ“š Documentation

The builder supports all core parameters of the Time Zone API:

  • location β†’ latitude/longitude
  • timestamp β†’ DateTimeOffset, converted internally to Unix time
  • language (optional)
  • key β†’ required unless disabled in options

πŸ“Œ Refer to the official Google Time Zone API documentation for parameter semantics and output fields.

⚑ Quick Start

var url = new TimeZoneUrlBuilder()
    .AddLocation(48.8566, 2.3522)
    .AddTimeStamp(DateTimeOffset.UtcNow)
    .AddLanguage("fr")
    .AddKey("YOUR_API_KEY")
    .Build();

This will generate a fully validated Time Zone API request URL.

🧱 Fluent API

Every part of the URL is constructed through intuitive, discoverable methods:

.AddLocation(latitude: 40.6892, longitude: -74.0445)
.AddTimeStamp(DateTimeOffset.UtcNow)
.AddLanguage("en")
.AddKey("my-api-key")

βš™οΈ Advanced Options

The builder also supports configuration options through:

.WithOptions(new TimeZoneBuilderOptions
{
    DisableUrlEncoding = true,
    DisableApiKeyCheck = true,
    ReturnParametersOnly = false
});

Available options:

Option Description
DisableUrlEncoding Leaves commas and values unescaped (useful for debugging)
DisableApiKeyCheck Allows building URLs without .AddKey() (tests, mocks)
ReturnParametersOnly Returns only param=value… without the base host

πŸ§ͺ Test Coverage & Reliability

The builder is fully covered by unit tests:

  • βœ”οΈ Valid & invalid coordinates
  • βœ”οΈ Valid & invalid language codes
  • βœ”οΈ Timestamp conversion
  • βœ”οΈ Missing API key handling
  • βœ”οΈ Options overrides
  • βœ”οΈ URL encoding checks

Every scenario is validated both at build-time and runtime.
