🖍 Human-readable date parsing for .NET

A .NET date parser that can parse human-readable relative and absolute dates to System.DateTime instances. This is a completely rewritten version of ti-ka/human-date-parser.

✍ Usage

HumanDateParser.Parse(string) returns a DateTime object.
(C#)
Assuming current time is October 23rd, 2019, 9:39pm (23/10/2019, 2139h)...

HumanDateParser.Parse("1 month ago") // 23/09/2019, 2139h
HumanDateParser.Parse("In 15 days") // 07/11/2019, 2139h
HumanDateParser.Parse("In 4h3m2s") // 24/09/2019, 0142h (1:42:02 AM)
HumanDateParser.Parse("Tomorrow") // 24/09/2019, 2139h
HumanDateParser.Parse("Tomorrow at 4pm") // 24/09/2019, 1600h (4PM)
HumanDateParser.Parse("Yesterday") // 22/09/2019, 2139h
HumanDateParser.Parse("24h") // 24/09/2019, 2139h
HumanDateParser.Parse("Last thursday at 3:23:44 AM") // 17/10/2019, 0323h (03:23:44 AM)
HumanDateParser.Parse("Last year") // 23/09/2018, 2139h
HumanDateParser.Parse("now") // 23/10/2019, 2139h
HumanDateParser.Parse("") // 23/10/2019, 2139h

More functionality is being implemented over time.
You can add the package to your project from NuGet under Abyssal.HumanDateParser. It depends on .NET 5.0.
