Requirements

Python >= 3

Installation

pip install nepali

Features

1. Nepali datetime support
2. Parse nepali datetime
3. Nepali Characters (Months, Days, etc)
4. Number to nepali numbers and nepali numbers to english.

nepalidate

Represents nepali date, converts English date to nepali date and nepali date to english date

from nepali.datetime import nepalidate  

Creating new object

# object with current date
np_date = nepalidate(year, month, day)

# object with today's date
np_date = nepalidate.today()

# parse date
np_date = nepalidate.strptime('2078-01-12', format='%Y-%m-%d')

Object from python's datetime.date

import datetime

date = datetime.date.today()
np_date = nepalidate.from_date(date)

Get python's datetime.date object

np_date.to_date()

Get python's datetime.datetime object

np_date.to_datetime()

nepalidatetime

Represents nepali date time

from nepali.datetime import nepalidatetime  

Creating new object

# object with specific datetime
np_datetime = nepalidatetime(year, month, day[, hour[, minute[, second]]]) # arguments must be nepali

# object with current datetime
np_datetime = nepalidatetime.now()

# parse datetime
np_datetime = nepalidatetime.strptime('2078-01-12 13:12', format='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M')

Object from python's datetime.datetime

import datetime

dt = datetime.datetime.now()
np_datetime = nepalidatetime.from_datetime(dt)

Get nepalidate object

np_datetime.date()

Get python's datetime.time object

np_datetime.time()

Get python's datetime.datetime object

np_datetime.to_datetime()

Date String Format
Equivalent to python's datetime strftime format

npDateTime = nepalidatetime.now()
print(npDateTime.strftime('%a %A %w %d %b %B %m %y %Y %H %I %p %M %S'))
print(npDateTime.strftime_en('%a %A %w %d %b %B %m %y %Y %H %I %p %M %S'))

timedelta operations

ndt = nepalidatetime.now()
print(ndt + datetime.timedelta(hours=5))
print(ndt - datetime.timedelta(hours=5))

parse

Parses datetime from a string.

Note: parse uses very high cost method, so avoid this as much as you can. Use strptime

from nepali.datetime import parser as nepalidatetime_parser
ndt = nepalidatetime_parser.parse('29 Jestha, 2078, 1:30 PM')

nepalihumanize

nepalihumanize converts nepalidatetime to nepali human readable form

from nepali.datetime import nepalihumanize  

Creating new object

# object from nepali datetime
ndt = nepalidatetime.now()
humanize_str = nepalihumanize(ndt)

# object from python datetime
dt = datetime.datetime.now()
humanize_str = nepalihumanize(dt)

Humanize with threshold
returns date in nepali characters if more than threshold(in seconds) else returns humanize form

humanize_str = nepalihumanize(ndt, threshold=60) # 60 seconds

# custom format after threshold
humanize_str = nepalihumanize(ndt, threshold=60, format='%Y-%m-%d') # 60 seconds
