How to parse date with a given format?

[sohailalam2]

This works pretty well in momentjs

moment('27/08/2018', 'DD/MM/YYYY')

How can we make it work in dayjs?

This fails with the following error message -

dayjs('27/08/2018', 'DD/MM/YYYY')

TypeError: Cannot create property 'date' on string 'DD/MM/YYYY'

Any update on this? Pretty essential feature for people outside the US.

Agree that this is needed. Do a lot of work with dates and would not move from moment without this feature. Lib looks nice.

This has been already requested as #136.
