This version brings small changes and performance improvements.

New features

Support for EXIF-formatted strings in parse()

Pendulum now supports parsing EXIF datetime strings (in the form YYYY:MM:DD hh:mm:ss ).

>>> import pendulum >>> pendulum . parse ( '2016:12:26 15:45:28' ) # <Pendulum [2016-12-26T15:45:28+00:00]>

Changes

Performance improvements when parsing ISO 8601 strings

This version adds a C extension to improve ISO 8601 string parsing performances.

Time in seconds to parse 10000 strings

Under the hood it uses the parse_iso8601() helper (only available with C extensions activated) which is the fastest and most accurate ISO 8601 datetime parser in Python. Let's take a look:

Time values represent the total time to parse the string 10000 times.
