## Usage


### Basic Usage


```rust
use smart_date_time;

// Parse and format date
let result = smart_date_time::format("2025-01-20", "YYYY-MM-DD");
println!("{}", result); // Output: 2025-01-20

// Parse Chinese format
let result = smart_date_time::format("今天", "YYYY年MM月DD日");
println!("{}", result); // Output: 2025年10月01日 (based on current date)

// Parse time format
let result = smart_date_time::format("13点半", "YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm");
println!("{}", result); // Output: 2025-10-01 13:30 (uses current date)
```

### Formatting Templates


Supported formatting placeholders:

- `ss` - Two-digit second (e.g., 00, 59)

### Examples


```rust
use smart_date_time;

// Various format examples
let examples = vec![
    ("2025-01-20", "YYYY-MM-DD"),
    ("2025/1/20", "YYYY/MM/DD"),
    ("2025.1.20", "YYYY.MM.DD"),
    ("2025年1月20日", "YYYY年MM月DD日"),
    ("01-01", "MM-DD"),
    ("20号", "DD号"),
    ("13:42:52", "HH:mm:ss"),
    ("13点半", "HH:mm"),
    ("今天", "今天是YYYY年MM月DD日"),
    ("now", "Current time: YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss"),
];

for (input, format_str) in examples {
    let result = smart_date_time::format(input, format_str);
    println!("Input: {}, Format: {}, Result: {}", input, format_str, result);
}
```
