DESCRIPTION

Inflate dates into DateTime objects.

METHODS

parser

Arguments: \%args

Required. Define the expected input string, so DataTime::Format::Builder knows how to inflate it into a DateTime object.

Accepts arguments to be passed to "parser" in DateTime::Format::Builder.

strptime

Arguments: \%args

Arguments: $string

Optional. Define the format that should be used if the DateTime object is stringified.

Accepts a hashref of arguments to be passed to "new" in DateTime::Format::Strptime. Alternatively, accepts a single string argument, suitable for passing to DateTime::Format::Strptime->new( pattern => $string ).
