## Install

```sh
cargo install fuzzydate-cli --locked
```

## Usage

Fuzzydate parses human-friendly phrases into `chrono` datetimes. The current time (or `--relative-to`, if passed), is used for any values not specified by the phrase and for any operations that are relative to an existing time, like `5 days ago`. For full grammar, see the [library documentation][docs.rs]. See `fuzzydate --help` for information on supported options.

Simple phrase:
```sh
$ fuzzydate 5 minutes after friday at noon
2025-11-28T12:05:00-08:00
```

Change output format:
```sh
$ fuzzydate -f "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M" tomorrow at 9:30am
2025-11-29 09:30
```

Change time used as current time:
```sh
$ fuzzydate --relative-to 2025-11-27T08:00:00-08:00 tomorrow at noon
2025-11-28T12:00:00-08:00
```
