pretty-cron 1.1.0

prettify_cron(cron_expression)

Converts the given string cron expression into a pretty, human-readable, English description of what it means. If the string is not a valid cron expression, or it includes features not currently supported, it is returned as-is.

For example:

>>> import pretty_cron
>>> pretty_cron.prettify_cron("0 * * * *")
"At 0 minutes past every hour of every day"
>>> pretty_cron.prettify_cron("0 0 1 1 *")
"At 00:00 on the 1st of January"
>>> pretty_cron.prettify_cron("12 15 * 1 *")
"At 15:12 every day in January"
>>> pretty_cron.prettify_cron("lalala")  # Not a cron expression
"lalala"
