Dealing with datetime padding
Post Body

What's the best way to deal with dates that have no padding?

E.g., if I have a datetime in the format "5/11/2020 15:05" ("dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm") then either the day or month may only have 1 digit. I can't imagine that apoc.date.convert() is really not clever enough to parse this date so I must be missing some syntactic sugar. What am I missing? Or must I deconstruct the date manually?

Edit: Here's the abomination I came up with:

WITH [item in split('2/5/2020 23:59',' ')|
CASE WHEN item CONTAINS '/' THEN split(item, '/') ELSE split(item,':') END] as s 
UNWIND s as t UNWIND t as u WITH collect(toInteger(u)) as v 
RETURN datetime({month:v[0],day:v[1],year:v[2],hour:v[3],minute:v[4]}) as theDamnDateTime
