NAME¶
DateTime::Format::Builder::Parser::Quick - Use another formatter, simply
SYNOPSIS¶
use DateTime::Format::Builder (
parsers => { parse_datetime => [
{ Quick => 'DateTime::Format::HTTP' },
{ Quick => 'DateTime::Format::Mail' },
{ Quick => 'DateTime::Format::IBeat' },
]});
is the same as:
use DateTime::Format::HTTP;
use DateTime::Format::Mail;
use DateTime::Format::IBeat;
use DateTime::Format::Builder (
parsers => { parse_datetime => [
sub { eval { DateTime::Format::HTTP->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) } },
sub { eval { DateTime::Format::Mail->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) } },
sub { eval { DateTime::Format::IBeat->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) } },
]});
(These two pieces of code can both be found in the test suite; one as
quick.t, the other as
fall.t.)
DESCRIPTION¶
"Quick" adds a parser that allows some shortcuts when writing fairly
standard and mundane calls to other formatting modules.
SPECIFICATION¶
"Quick" has two keys, one optional.
The "Quick" keyword should have an argument of either an object or a
class name. If it's a class name then the class is "use"d.
The "method" keyword is optional with a default of
"parse_datetime". It's either name of the method to invoke on the
object, or a reference to a piece of code.
In any case, the resultant code ends up looking like:
my $rv = $Quick->$method( $date );
THANKS¶
See the main module's section.
SUPPORT¶
Support for this module is provided via the datetime@perl.org email list. See

This makes it much easier for me to track things and thus means your problem is
less likely to be neglected.
