Description
I'm trying to parse a date in the format YYMMDD
, e.g. 231022
. While this crate can parse 20231022
, it fails to parse 231022
(Playground):
use time::macros::{date, format_description};
use time::Date;
fn main() {
let long_format = format_description!("[year][month][day]");
assert_eq!(
Date::parse("20231022", long_format).unwrap(),
date!(2023 - 10 - 22)
);
let short_format = format_description!("[year repr:last_two][month][day]");
assert_eq!(
Date::parse("231022", short_format).unwrap(),
date!(2023 - 10 - 22)
);
}
thread 'main' panicked at src/main.rs:13:45:
called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: TryFromParsed(InsufficientInformation)
This is probably because there is no century information included in the later. It would be nice if it was possible to give default values during parsing, or add an option to assume missing values to be 0 (so I can add 2000 years after parsing) or similar. This would probably also make sense for formats with optional fields.
