Gregorian.Info.isDay Instance Member in CIQ 4.0

Hello guys and hopefully Garmin!

I've been watching online conference GDVC 2020 and I've read new post about first preview of CIQ 4.0

That's cool and so many interesting things are coming!

I want to leave here one pretty simple request for CIQ 4.0 or if it possible for CIQ 3.2

Is it possible to have isDay method in Toybox.Time.Gregorian.Info class which return bool value of the time of day (0 - night, 1 - day)?

Something like

var isDay ⇒ Toybox.Lang.Boolean

The time of day whether it night or day is.

Since:

3.2.0

Returns:

Toybox.Lang.Boolean —

true if it day, otherwise false

I know I can calculate it by myself if I want to have this value in my app, but it's necessary to have GPS data updated at least once after installing the app to calculate it.

I do want to have this field as well as hour, min, sec, day_of_week and so on

Thanks!

Hope to see official reply

The best thing would probably be if sunrise/sunset times as calculated by the FW was exposed in CIQ. That's been requested for years.

Yeah, this thing would be greater indeed.

I want to have both of them now

IMHO it's quite a time to have these in CIQ

if the times were exposed, it would be easy to determine what you want, and would save a bunch of code in things that calculate it themselves.
