It's not clear to me from the documentation how I would parse a date in this somewhat strange format. It seems like it might not be possible.
2016-07-08T08:34:24+00:00
The following does not work (go play link)
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
)
func main() {
date := "2016-07-08T08:34:24+00:00"
d, err := time.Parse("2006-01-02T15:04:05+07:00", date)
if err == nil {
fmt.Println(d)
} else {
fmt.Println(err)
}
}
Obviously a regexp could first check for this format and transform the +
to a -
, but that implies the standard library cant parse this date.
