Field types
Time

JSON{ "format": "HH:mm", "precision": "00:15", "minimum": "08:00:00", "maximum": "20:00:00" }
Permissions
Without write permission on the field, input is locked. disabled: true turns the field into a pure
display for everyone, including people with write permission.
Formatting
The field type comes with Time HH:MM. It leaves out :00 seconds and is not preselected anywhere: the
views shorten the time anyway, and the export would change without notice. See Formatting .
When another field type fits
For date and time together: Date and time .
A point in time belongs in one value; otherwise sorting “by point in time” puts all times of the first day
before the second day. If the point in time belongs to a procedure, an event is the better place. use_plus_sign allows a sign, but it does
not turn the field into a duration with a start and an end.
