This is the expected behavior of `.fromisoformat()`. A similar issue is https://bugs.python.org/issue35829, which asks for the "Z" suffix to be supported. There is a note about this in the documentation: https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.fromisoformat "Caution This does not support parsing arbitrary ISO 8601 strings - it is only intended as the inverse operation of datetime.isoformat(). A more full-featured ISO 8601 parser, dateutil.parser.isoparse is available in the third-party package dateutil." At some point we will work out the kinks in offering as full an ISO 8601 datetime parser as possible, but the ISO 8601 datetime spec is very complicated and includes many optional features. We deliberately chose to keep the scope of `.fromisoformat()` minimal at first, whereas `dateutil.parser.isoparse` attempts to be a full-featured ISO8601 parser. Changing the version affected to 3.10, since this is a feature request. ---------- type: behavior -> enhancement versions: +Python 3.10 -Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42371> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
