Parsing the string "in 2hrs"

[Fishtank]

Hi,
Thanks for the great package. As it should, pars "in 2hrs"
correctly returns the time 2hrs from *now*.

How can I set the base time ('current time') so that "in 2hrs" returns
a time
2hrs from the base time?


Cheers

The parse function takes as an optional parameter what datetime to use
as the start/base time. You can see an example of this in the
tests/TestSimpleOffsets.py testHoursFromNow method.

for example:

s = datetime.datetime.now()
start = s.timetuple()

c.parse('in 5hrs', start)

where c is a pdt.Calendar() instance
