NAME

HTML::FormFu::Constraint::DateTime - DateTime constraint

SYNOPSIS

---
elements:
- type: Text
name: start_date
constraints:
- type: DateTime
parser:
strptime: '%d-%m-%Y'
- type: Text
name: end_time
constraints:
- type: DateTime
parser:
regex: !!perl/regexp '^(\d{2}) - (\d{2}) - (\d{4})$'
params: [day, month, year]

An example of using the same parser declaration for both a DateTime constraint and a DateTime inflator, using YAML references:

---
elements:
- type: Text
name: date
constraints:
- type: DateTime
parser: &PARSER
strptime: '%d-%m-%Y'
inflators:
- type: DateTime
parser: *PARSER

DESCRIPTION

Ensure input can later be inflated to a DateTime object.

METHODS

parser

Arguments: \%args

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

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