=head1 NAME

HTML::FormFu::Constraint::DateTime - DateTime constraint

=head1 VERSION

version 2.06

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    ---
    elements:
      - type: Text
        name: start_date
        constraints:
          - type: DateTime
            parser:
              strptime: '%d-%m-%Y'

      - type: Text
        name: end_time
        constraints:
          - type: DateTime
            parser:
              regex: !!perl/regexp '^(\d{2}) - (\d{2}) - (\d{4})$'
              params: [day, month, year]

An example of using the same parser declaration for both a DateTime
constraint and a DateTime inflator, using YAML references:

    ---
    elements:
      - type: Text
        name: date
        constraints:
          - type: DateTime
            parser: &PARSER
              strptime: '%d-%m-%Y'
        inflators:
          - type: DateTime
            parser: *PARSER

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Ensure input can later be inflated to a DateTime object.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 parser

Arguments: \%args

Required. Define the expected input string, so L<DateTime::Format::Builder>
knows how to turn it into a L<DateTime> object.

Accepts arguments to be passed to L<DateTime::Format::Builder/parser>.
