datetime conversion using python

Question

I have date as

'Apr, 2012'

I want to convert it to the "mx datetime" object.

Can anyone tell me how to convert the same?

Presumably you are talking about the eGenix mxDateTime library, rather than Python's built-in datetime module. — Sven Marnach

What have you tried? I believe the mx strptime function works the same as the python stdlib's datetime.datetime.strptime function, so this should be a very straight forward operation. — aquavitae

You can use dateutil.parser to parse dates to python datetime objects:

from dateutil.parser import parse
from mx.DateTime import DateFrom
date = DateFrom(parse('Apr, 2012'))
