lunardate A Chinese Calendar Library in Pure Python A Chinese Calendar Library in Pure Python ========================================= Chinese Calendar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_calendar Usage ----- >>> LunarDate.fromSolarDate(1976, 10, 1) LunarDate(1976, 8, 8, 1) >>> LunarDate(1976, 8, 8, 1).toSolarDate() datetime.date(1976, 10, 1) >>> LunarDate(1976, 8, 8, 1).year 1976 >>> LunarDate(1976, 8, 8, 1).month 8 >>> LunarDate(1976, 8, 8, 1).day 8 >>> LunarDate(1976, 8, 8, 1).isLeapMonth True >>> today = LunarDate.today() >>> type(today).__name__ 'LunarDate' >>> # support '+' and '-' between datetime.date and datetime.timedelta >>> ld = LunarDate(1976,8,8) >>> sd = datetime.date(2008,1,1) >>> td = datetime.timedelta(days=10) >>> ld-ld datetime.timedelta(0) >>> ld-sd datetime.timedelta(-11444) >>> ld-td LunarDate(1976, 7, 27, 0) >>> sd-ld datetime.timedelta(11444) >>> ld+td LunarDate(1976, 8, 18, 0) >>> td+ld LunarDate(1976, 8, 18, 0) >>> ld2 = LunarDate.today() >>> ld < ld2 True >>> ld <= ld2 True >>> ld > ld2 False >>> ld >= ld2 False >>> ld == ld2 False >>> ld != ld2 True >>> ld == ld True News ---- * 0.1.4: support '+', '-' and compare, fix bug in year 2050 * 0.1.3: support python 3.0 Limits ------ this library can only deal with year from 1900 to 2049 (in chinese calendar). See also -------- * lunar: http://packages.qa.debian.org/l/lunar.html, A converter written in C, this program is derived from it. * python-lunar: http://code.google.com/p/liblunar/ Another library written in C, including a python binding.
