gshconverter 0.1.0

Installation

Requires Python 3.12+

pip install gshconverter

Usage

The main functions are:

• solar_hijri_to_gregorian(sh_year: int, sh_month: int, sh_day: int) -> tuple[int, int, int]

• gregorian_to_solar_hijri(g_year: int, g_month: int, g_day: int) -> tuple[int, int, int]

• is_g_leap(year: int) -> bool

• is_sh_leap(year: int) -> bool

Example:

>>> from gshconverter import *
>>> is_sh_leap(1403)
True
>>> solar_hijri_to_gregorian(1403, 12, 30)
(2025, 3, 20)
>>> gregorian_to_solar_hijri(2025, 3, 20)
(1403, 12, 30)

Notes

This library currently assumes 33-year cycles which means it will get inaccurate for dates too far in the future (the first known incorrect year is 1502 SH) or too far in the past (the results are known to be correct at least until 1210 SH according to University of Tehran astronomical calculation).

The output of converter functions are the same as the ones in FarsiWeb’s jalali.c , but gshconverter uses a different algorithm and is written from scratch. It also is faster than the current Python implementation used in jdatetime library .
