Also these methods are addedd to jdatetime.date and jdatetime.datetime :

fromgregorian(**kw)
    Convert gregorian to jalali and return jdatetime.date
    jdatetime.date.fromgregorian(day=X,month=X,year=X)
    jdatetime.date.fromgregorian(date=datetime.date)
    jdatetime.date.fromgregorian(datetime=datetime.datetime)
togregorian(self)
    Convert current jalali date to gregorian and return datetime.date
isleap(self)
    check if year is leap year
    algortim is based on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_year

Example

$ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> import jdatetime
>>> jdatetime.datetime.now()
jdatetime.datetime(1394, 12, 4, 8, 37, 31, 855729)
>>> jdatetime.date.today()
jdatetime.date(1394, 12, 4)

Locale

In order to get the date string in farsi you need to set the locale to fa_IR

$ python
Python 2.7.9 (default, Mar  1 2015, 12:57:24)
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> import locale
>>> import jdatetime
>> jdatetime.datetime.now().strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S")
u'Wed, 08 Ord 1395 20:47:32'
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "fa_IR")
'fa_IR'
>>> jdatetime.datetime.now().strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S")
u'\u0686\u0647\u0627\u0631\u0634\u0646\u0628\u0647, 08 \u0627\u0631\u062f\u06cc\u0628\u0647\u0634\u062a 1395 20:47:56'

If your requirements demand to support different locales withing the same process, you could set the default locale per thread. New date and datetime instances created in each thread, will use the specified locale by default. This supports both Python threads, and greenlets.

import jdatetime
jdatetime.set_locale('fa_IR')
jdatetime.datetime.now().strftime('%A %B')
# u'\u062f\u0648\u0634\u0646\u0628\u0647 \u062e\u0631\u062f\u0627\u062f'
