I’m trying to get a date for an event from a user.
The input is just a simple html text input.
My main problem is that I don’t know how to parse the date.
If I try to pass the raw string, I get a TypeError, as expected.
Does Django have any date-parsing modules?
If you are using django.forms look at DateField.input_formats. This argument allows to define several date formats. DateField tries to parse raw data according to those formats in order.
