Dates in the format 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM' give the incorrect month and day

Perhaps I'm using the library wrong. Is this intended to work?

In [7]: parsedatetime.Calendar().parse('2015-06-15 04:30')
Out[7]: ((2015, 8, 5, 4, 30, 0, 2, 217, 1), 2)
In [8]: parsedatetime.Calendar().parse('06-15-2015 04:30')
Out[8]: ((2015, 8, 5, 4, 30, 0, 2, 217, 1), 2)

It seems to have correctly parsed out the time, but the date is ignored. The library works great with stuff like "2 hours ago", but it fails for this.

technically we have tried to make it work with dates of that type, but it turns out to be a lot of messy work since the focus of the lib is about fuzzy/natural dates

👍 makes sense, thanks!

This actually is supported as of a couple weeks ago. If you need to parse this particular format, installing parsedatetime from the master branch should work. It does not support full ISO8601 dates (e.g. 2015-06-15T04:30:26-0500) but your example is a simpler format.
