NAME

       HTML::FormFu::Inflator::DateTime - DateTime inflator

VERSION

       version 2.05

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
               inflators:
                 - type: DateTime
                   time_zone: Europe/Rome
                   parser:
                     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 )".
