dateparse

Dateparser for creating datetime objects from arbitrarily formated date strings. Primary support for Norwegian date formats.

New version is a complete refactor:

• Much faster parsing.
• Reduced pattern complexity.
• Improved matching rutine.
• Some reduced functionality with less used time formats (centuries, relative dates, text based).

Install

pip install dateparse-tobiasli

Usage

import datetime
from dateparse import DateParser
parser = DateParser()

# Dates with alpha components:
dt = parser.parse('5. januar 2015')
print(dt == [datetime.datetime(2015, 1, 5, 0, 0)])

# Multiple dates from same string:
dt = parser.parse('1/12/2014 kl 12, 11.12.2015 kl 14')
print(dt == [datetime.datetime(2014, 12, 1, 12, 00), datetime.datetime(2015, 12, 11, 14, 00)])
