date filter in document template does not recognize string values

Question

Hi !

I'm trying to display a transaction metadata that contains an ISO date like "2011-12-03T10:15:30", and I get an error saying that the value is not a date.

For reference, here the code for the delivery-date.twig template mentionned in the issue :

<div class="infoItem">
	<div class="infoItemLabel">{% include '../snippet/delivery-date.twig' %}</div>
	<div class="infoItemValue">{{ '2011-12-03T10:15:30' | date }}</div>
</div>

Your documentation doesn't tell what type of value the date filter accepts, but based on the provided example {# user.dateOfBirth = 'October 21, 2015' #}, I assumed string values where valid.

Could you please explain to me why it does not work as expected?
