Thank you for your PR!
In general this looks good. However, I think that we should reconsider the way we pick the beginning of the week (see comment).

Looks good. I think this scheme makes more sense.
One last thing is that I think we should clarify whether it's the start of Sunday UTC or local time.
Thanks!

Looks good. Thank you!
CI is failing, but I think this branch just needs master
merged in to fix that.
I merged
This appears to be unrelated to my change. For what it's worth, #3237 is an open PR that mentions this problem. How should we proceed? |
I've created a separate PR to fix these issues #3292, once that's merged you can pull in the latest changes and this PR should go green too. |
Thank you, Hayden! Have a great weekend |
## Motivation While configuring tracing-appender, I wanted to specify a weekly log rotation interval. I was unable to do so, as the largest rotation interval was daily. ## Solution Before my introduction of weekly log rotation, rounding the current `OffsetDateTime` was straightforward: we could simply keep the current date and truncate part or all of the time component. However, we cannot simply truncate the time with weekly rotation; the date must now be modified. To round the date, we roll logs at 00:00 UTC on Sunday. This gives us consistent date-times that only change weekly.

Motivation
While configuring tracing-appender, I wanted to specify a weekly log rotation interval. I was unable to do so, as the largest rotation interval was daily.
Solution
Before my introduction of weekly log rotation, rounding the current
OffsetDateTime
was straightforward: we could simply keep the current date and truncate part or all of the time component. However, we cannot simply truncate the time with weekly rotation; the date must now be modified.To round the date, I take its ordinal (how many days have passed since the start of the year) and round it backwards to the nearest 7 day period. This gives us consistent date-times that only change weekly.
