# Dalt

Parse you date dynamically without raising error when invalid, but returning alternative object as you want.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'dalt'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install dalt

## Usage

Simple. Very similiar with `Date.parse`. Just:
```ruby
['invalid', 'monday', '01-01-2019'].each do |date|
Dalt.parse(date, alt: 'Invalid date')
end
```
will return

```ruby
["Invalid date", #, #]
```

If your date is valid, then will return your valid date.
If your date is not valid, then will return your alternate.
Simple, right?
