Jalali datetime binding for python
Project description
jdatetime is Jalali implementation of Python’s datetime module
Status
Install
pip install jdatetime
Documents
This module exactly follows Python Standard datetime module’s methods http://docs.python.org/release/2.7.1/library/datetime.html
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.datetime.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

>>> 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. The locale could be specified explicitly upon instantiation of date/datetime instances, or by setting a default locale.
Instance locales is named argument only:
import jdatetime
fa_date = jdatetime.date(1397, 4, 23, locale='fa_IR')
fa_datetime = jdatetime.datetime(1397, 4, 23, 11, 40, 30, locale='fa_IR')
date and datetime instances provide the method aslocale() to return a clone of the instance with the same timestamp, in a different locale.
Default Locale
It’s possible to set the default locale, so all new instances created afterwards would use the desired locale, unless explicitly specified otherwise.

>>> 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'
