Is there a library for performing NLP on dates?

[deadcoder0904]

I like Sherlock.js but it does fail a lot of times so I was wondering if compromise does something like that for dates?

For eg, in 2 hours get converted to 5th Feb 2022 2:08 pm & tomorrow at 9 pm gets converted to 6th Feb 2022 9:00 pm

Is there anything like that already available?

thanks but the demo is weird. i was wondering it would show the dates like the sherlock demo but it just shows what i entered. here i enter 1 hour & it still shows 1 hour & start & end don't make sense as today is 8th Feb.

does this work exactly like sherlock?

does it handle all internationalizations as well?

solid work bdw!

by weirdly i mean like 130 won't show anything but 130pm shows 5pm. it however shows 1:30 perfectly.

another question i have is "is there a way to get multiple outputs for one input?" like things for mac has? so when i press 12, it shows this:

or any way to build something like this?

130pm is a good bug. please file more if you find them.
There is no support for multiple-interpretations of ambiguous dates
cheers

yeah, i will if i use it 👍

i needed multiple interpretations so i could build a typeahead nlp datetimepicker. ping me if u ever build it :)
