Compare with:

iso8601(str)

Method for creating new ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instance in time zone of self from an ISO 8601 string.

Time.zone = 'Hawaii'                     # => "Hawaii"
Time.zone.iso8601('1999-12-31T14:00:00') # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 14:00:00 HST -10:00

If the time components are missing then they will be set to zero.

Time.zone = 'Hawaii'            # => "Hawaii"
Time.zone.iso8601('1999-12-31') # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 00:00:00 HST -10:00

If the string is invalid then an ArgumentError will be raised unlike parse which usually returns nil when given an invalid date string.
