<: $today | format_date()  :><!-- use default date/time format -->
<: $e     | format('%.7f') :><!-- sprintf's format rules -->

METHODS

format

Format string or number by the usual "printf" conventions of the C library function "sprintf". See sprintf, sprintf(3) or printf(3) on your system for an explanation of the general principles.

Example:

<: $pi | format('%.4f') :>

will may return 3.1416.

format_time

Parse provided date/time via Date::Parse::strptime and print it as arbitrary string. See strftime(3) for format explanation.

format_time('21/dec/42 17:05', '%Y, %e %B, %A');

or

<% date('2015-01-25') %>
<% $date_variable | date %>

Input can have any format which recognized by Date::Parse:

1995:01:24T09:08:17.1823213           ISO-8601
