[SOLVED] Alternative to regex to extract date from whole timestamp?

[Winfried]

Hello,

Python being such a rich language, I was wondering if it provides a ready-to-use function to extract juste the date from a whole timestamp instead of using a regular expression:

#Thu, 10 Nov 2022 18:15:41 +0000
pattern_pubDate = re.compile('(\d{2}) (\w+?) (\d{4})')
…
m = pattern_pubDate.search(link.pubDate.string)
if m:
	pubDate = m.group(0)

I'm only interested in the date.

Thank you.
