NAME

DateTime::Format::Atom - Parse and format Atom datetime strings

VERSION

Version 1.6.0

SYNOPSIS

   use DateTime::Format::Atom;

   my $format = DateTime::Format::Atom->new();
   my $dt = $format->parse_datetime( '2002-07-01T13:50:05Z' );

   # 2002-07-01T13:50:05Z
   print $format->format_datetime( $dt );

DESCRIPTION

This module understands the Atom date/time format, an ISO 8601 profile, defined at http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287

It can be used to parse these formats in order to create the appropriate objects.

All the work is actually done by DateTime::Format::RFC3339.

CONSTRUCTOR

new

   my $format = DateTime::Format::Atom->new();

METHODS

parse_datetime

   my $dt = DateTime::Format::Atom->parse_datetime( $string );
   my $dt = $format->parse_datetime( $string );

Given a Atom datetime string, this method will return a new DateTime object.

If given an improperly formatted string, this method will croak.

For a more flexible parser, see DateTime::Format::ISO8601.

format_datetime

   my $string = DateTime::Format::Atom->format_datetime( $dt );
   my $string = $format->format_datetime( $dt );

Given a DateTime object, this methods returns a Atom datetime string.
