Question on slots/entities

I am building a bot where the bot need tell the store hours. If the customer asks about something like this " what is the ABC restaurant store hours tomorrow?" , the bot should respond lookup the hours from a database. In order to do the lookup, “tomorrow” should be translated to a “weekday, like Monday” I can do this in python actions, by datetime functionality, but that is string manipulation. Is there a way Rasa can do it for us?

Duckling is good at this.

If you are experienced with Docker then use this: https://hub.docker.com/r/rasa/duckling/

If not, then pull duckling from Github and install Haskell, and compile it yourself:
