Folks, we need to address this ASAP. When using search_dates with something like "7am" it fails to understand the time correctly. It only happens to AM, while PM looks like ok
Here is what I'm observing:
$ date
Thu Feb 22 20:14:33 PST 2024
$ pip3 show dateparser
Name: dateparser
Version: 1.2.0
. . . . .
>>> from dateparser.search import search_dates
>>> search_dates("there is something tomorrow at 7am")
[('tomorrow at 7am', datetime.datetime(2024, 2, 23, 20, 15, 47, 376532))]
>>> search_dates("there is something tomorrow at 7pm")
[('tomorrow at 7pm', datetime.datetime(2024, 2, 23, 19, 0))]
>>> search_dates("there is something tomorrow at 7:00am")
[('tomorrow at 7:00am', datetime.datetime(2024, 2, 23, 7, 0))]
>>>
When adding :00 to it looks like does the trick, however the text doesn't always have hr:min format
so the issue is why it fails with AM?
search_dates("there is something tomorrow at 7am")
[('tomorrow at 7am', datetime.datetime(2024, 2, 23, 20, 15, 47, 376532))]
Please help with this issue. Thanks for your help and support!
