Usage

    use DateTime::Format::Builder (
        parsers => {
            parse_datetime => [
                { Quick => 'DateTime::Format::HTTP' },
                { Quick => 'DateTime::Format::Mail' },
                { Quick => 'DateTime::Format::IBeat' },
            ]
        }
    );
    # is the same as
    use DateTime::Format::HTTP;
    use DateTime::Format::Mail;
    use DateTime::Format::IBeat;
    use DateTime::Format::Builder (
        parsers => {
            parse_datetime => [
                sub {
                    eval { DateTime::Format::HTTP->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) }
                },
                sub {
                    eval { DateTime::Format::Mail->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) }
                },
                sub {
                    eval { DateTime::Format::IBeat->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) }
                },
            ]
        }
    );

Overview

"Quick" adds a parser that allows some shortcuts when writing fairly standard and mundane calls to other formatting modules.

Specification

"Quick" has two keys, one optional.

The "Quick" keyword should have an argument of either an object or a class name. If it's a class name then the class is "use"d.

The "method" keyword is optional with a default of "parse_datetime". It's either name of the method to invoke on the object, or a reference to a piece of code.

In any case, the resultant code ends up looking like:

    my $rv = $Quick->$method($date);
