Extend specification with non default format for types yearmonth and year
It would be very useful for us to extend the specification toaccept non default formats for type yearmonth, in the same way as date, time and datetime.
If we extend the specification for type yearmonth, it would be logical to extend it also for type year.
Our usecase is to describe a large database with tableschema, where yearmonth is writen with format YYYYMM and not default YYYY-MM.
This would allow us to validate the data, and to generate fake data with our beta library tsfaker.
@pajachiet this seems very sensible. A PR for the change would be welcomed.
Consider a datetime type property modifier, similar to numeric, integer and boolean, to specify a different EDTF level, e.g. EDTF-0, EDTF-1, EDTF-2 with EDTF-0 as the default, which is ISO-8601-1 (see detail below).
EDTF https://www.loc.gov/standards/datetime/ defines a robust date-time encoding syntax with multiple, escalating complexity levels.
Three conformance levels are defined: level 0, level 1, and level 2. Level 0 specifies features of ISO 8601-1; Levels 1 and 2 specify features described ISO 8601-2.
