Fast date/time parser with customisable formats, timezone and I18n support

Date/time parser for Ruby with the following features

  • Extensible with custom formats and tokens.
  • It’s pretty fast. Up to 60 faster than Time/Date parse method.
  • Control the parser strictness.
  • Control behaviour of ambiguous date formats US vs European e.g. mm/dd/yy, dd/mm/yy.
  • I18n support for months, if I18n gem loaded.
  • Fewer WTFs than Time/Date parse method.
  • Has no dependencies.

Extracted from the validates_timeliness gem, it has been rewritten cleaner and much faster. It’s most suitable for when you need to control the parsing behaviour. It’s faster than the Time/Date class parse methods, so it has general appeal.
