The fully-featured "even I couldn't understand that" time parser.
|
|
Designed to take in strings and give back sensible dates and times.
|
|
|
|
dtparse has its foundations in the [`dateutil`](dateutil) library for
|
|
Python, which excels at taking "interesting" strings and trying to make
|
|
sense of the dates and times they contain. A couple of quick examples
|
|
from the test cases should give some context:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
extern crate chrono;
|
|
extern crate dtparse;
|
|
use chrono::prelude::*;
|
|
use dtparse::parse;
|
|
|
|
assert_eq!(
|
|
parse("2008.12.30"),
|
|
Ok((NaiveDate::from_ymd(2008, 12, 30).and_hms(0, 0, 0), None))
|
|
);
|
|
|
|
// It can even handle timezones!
|
|
assert_eq!(
|
|
parse("January 4, 2024; 18:30:04 +02:00"),
|
|
Ok((
|
|
NaiveDate::from_ymd(2024, 1, 4).and_hms(18, 30, 4),
|
|
Some(FixedOffset::east(7200))
|
|
))
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And we can even handle fuzzy strings where dates/times aren't the
|
|
only content if we dig into the implementation a bit!
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
extern crate chrono;
|
|
extern crate dtparse;
|
|
use chrono::prelude::*;
|
|
use dtparse::Parser;
|
|
use std::collections::HashMap;
|
|
|
|
let mut p = Parser::default();
|
|
assert_eq!(
|
|
p.parse(
|
|
"I first released this library on the 17th of June, 2018.",
|
|
None, None,
|
|
true /* turns on fuzzy mode */,
|
|
true /* gives us the tokens that weren't recognized */,
|
|
None, false, &HashMap::new()
|
|
),
|
|
Ok((
|
|
NaiveDate::from_ymd(2018, 6, 17).and_hms(0, 0, 0),
|
|
None,
|
|
Some(vec!["I first released this library on the ",
|
|
" of ", ", "].iter().map(|&s| s.into()).collect())
|
|
))
|
|
);
|
|
```
