DateTime::Format::Flexible::lang::en(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation DateTime::Format::Flexible::lang::en(3)

DateTime::Format::Flexible::lang::en - the english language plugin

You should not need to use this module directly.

If you only want to use one language, specify the lang property when parsing a date.

example:

 my $dt = DateTime::Format::Flexible->parse_datetime(
     'Wed, Jun 10, 2009' ,
     lang => ['en']
 );
 # $dt is now 2009-06-10T00:00:00

Note that this is not required, by default ALL languages are scanned when trying to parse a date.

Instantiate a new instance of this module.

month name regular expressions along with the month numbers (Jan(?:uary)? => 1)

day name regular expressions along the the day numbers (Mon(?:day)? => 1)

maps day of month names to the corresponding numbers (first => 01)

maps hour names to numbers (noon => 12:00:00)

strings to remove from the date (rd as in 3rd)

searches for the string 'at' to help determine a time substring (sunday at 3:00)

maps string names to real dates (now => DateTime->now)

parse relative dates (ago => ago, from => from now, next => next, last => last)

useful strings when doing datetime math

maps unofficial timezones to official timezones for this language (CST => America/Chicago)
