DESCRIPTION

    This is a module to extract dates from german text (similar to
    Date::Extract).

METHODS

    new(reference_date => $reference_date, lookback_days => $lookback_days)

      Creates a new instance. Optionally, you can specify a reference
      Date::Simple which is used to determine the year when a date is given
      incompletely in the text (default is today). You can also specify a
      maximum numer of days to look back when an incomplete date is guessed
      (otherwise the closest date is used)

    extract($text)

      Tries to extract dates from the text and returns an arrayref of
      Date::Simple instances
