Namespace TimeMap.dateParsers

Defined in:
timemap.js

Lookup map of supported date parser functions. Add custom date parsers here if you want to refer to them by key rather than as a function name. 

    TimeMap.init({
        datasets: [
            {
                options: {
                    dateParser: "gregorian"
                },
                // etc...
            }
        ],
        // etc...
    });
