But I have to do:
DateTime dt =
DateTime.fromISOExtString(split("2018-11-06T16:52:03+01:00",
regex("\\+"))[0]);
You don't need a regex. split (..., '+') seems to suffice here.
IMO such a string should be feedable directly to the function.
It took me less than an hour to figure out how to provide a local
version of std.datetime named local.datetime:
```local/datetime.d
module local.datetime;
public import std.datetime;
struct DateTime {
std.datetime.DateTime dt;
alias dt this;
static DateTime fromISOExtString (string s)
{
import std.array;
auto arr = split (s, '+');
import std.exception;
enforce (arr.length > 0);
return DateTime (dt.fromISOExtString (arr[0]));
}
}
```
usage: import local.datetime instead of import std.datetime.
