Change axis format of a chart in openpyxl?

Question

I'm working with an Excel line chart by using the library openpyxl. I would like to know how to format the axis, so I can modify it from text format to date format.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

datetime.strptime() might be of value in this instance to parse a string to a date format. openpyxl's .number_format might also be a solution based on which worksheet cell it is reading from.
