Rok Mihevc commented on ARROW-13348: ------------------------------------ Also related ARROW-10343 > [C++] Allow timestamp parser to parse offset strings > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-13348 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13348 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: C++ > Reporter: Weston Pace > Priority: Major > > Neither the ISO8601 parser nor the strptime parser support parsing timezone > offset strings (e.g. {{2017-08-19 12:22:11.802755+00}}). These are sometimes > emitted by other tools (e.g. Postgresql) and should be supported for > compatibility. I think it's acceptable for them to parse to Timestamp(units, > "UTC") or Timestamp(units, offset) whichever is more convenient. > This issue doesn't necessarily require supporting tzdata timezone names (e.g. > "America/Denver", etc.) and those technically aren't ISO8601 compliant > anyways. > Support should be added to both the ISO-8601 parser (which should support > 00:00, 0000, and 00) and the strptime parser (which should add support for > %z). -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
