NAME¶
HTML::FormFu::Inflator::DateTime - DateTime inflator
SYNOPSIS¶
---
elements:
- type: Text
name: start_date
inflators:
- type: DateTime
parser:
strptime: '%d-%m-%Y'
strptime:
pattern: '%d-%b-%Y'
locale: de
- type: Text
name: end_time

regex: '^ (\d{2}) - (\d{2}) - (\d{4}) $'
params: [day, month, year]
strptime: '%d-%m-%Y'
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¶
Inflate dates into DateTime objects.
For a corresponding deflator, see HTML::FormFu::Deflator::Strftime.
METHODS¶
parser¶
Arguments: \%args
Required. Define the expected input string, so DateTime::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.
time_zone¶
Arguments: $string
Optional. You can pass along a time_zone in which the DateTime will be created.
This is useful if the string to parse does not contain time zone information
and you want the DateTime to be in a specific zone instead of the floating one
(which is likely).
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 )".
