calendar
— General calendar-related functions¶
Source code: Lib/calendar.py
This module allows you to output calendars like the Unix cal program,
and provides additional useful functions related to the calendar. By default,
these calendars have Monday as the first day of the week, and Sunday as the last
(the European convention). Use setfirstweekday()
to set the first day of
the week to Sunday (6) or to any other weekday. Parameters that specify dates
are given as integers. For related
functionality, see also the datetime
and time
modules.
The functions and classes defined in this module use an idealized calendar, the current Gregorian calendar extended indefinitely in both directions. This matches the definition of the „proleptic Gregorian” calendar in Dershowitz and Reingold’s book „Calendrical Calculations”, where it’s the base calendar for all computations. Zero and negative years are interpreted as prescribed by the ISO 8601 standard. Year 0 is 1 BC, year -1 is 2 BC, and so on.
- class calendar.Calendar(firstweekday=0)¶
Creates a
Calendar
object. firstweekday is an integer specifying the first day of the week.MONDAY
is0
(the default),SUNDAY
is6
.A
Calendar
object provides several methods that can be used for preparing the calendar data for formatting. This class doesn’t do any formatting itself. This is the job of subclasses.Calendar
instances have the following methods:- iterweekdays()¶
Return an iterator for the week day numbers that will be used for one week. The first value from the iterator will be the same as the value of the
firstweekday
property.
- itermonthdates(year, month)¶
Return an iterator for the month month (1–12) in the year year. This iterator will return all days (as
datetime.date
objects) for the month and all days before the start of the month or after the end of the month that are required to get a complete week.
- itermonthdays(year, month)¶
Return an iterator for the month month in the year year similar to
itermonthdates()
, but not restricted by thedatetime.date
range. Days returned will simply be day of the month numbers. For the days outside of the specified month, the day number is0
.
- itermonthdays2(year, month)¶
Return an iterator for the month month in the year year similar to
itermonthdates()
, but not restricted by thedatetime.date
range. Days returned will be tuples consisting of a day of the month number and a week day number.
- itermonthdays3(year, month)¶
Return an iterator for the month month in the year year similar to
itermonthdates()
, but not restricted by thedatetime.date
range. Days returned will be tuples consisting of a year, a month and a day of the month numbers.Added in version 3.7.
- itermonthdays4(year, month)¶
Return an iterator for the month month in the year year similar to
itermonthdates()
, but not restricted by thedatetime.date
range. Days returned will be tuples consisting of a year, a month, a day of the month, and a day of the week numbers.Added in version 3.7.
- monthdatescalendar(year, month)¶
Return a list of the weeks in the month month of the year as full weeks. Weeks are lists of seven
datetime.date
objects.
- monthdays2calendar(year, month)¶
Return a list of the weeks in the month month of the year as full weeks. Weeks are lists of seven tuples of day numbers and weekday numbers.
- monthdayscalendar(year, month)¶
Return a list of the weeks in the month month of the year as full weeks. Weeks are lists of seven day numbers.
- yeardatescalendar(year, width=3)¶
Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting. The return value is a list of month rows. Each month row contains up to width months (defaulting to 3). Each month contains between 4 and 6 weeks and each week contains 1–7 days. Days are
datetime.date
objects.
- yeardays2calendar(year, width=3)¶
Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting (similar to
yeardatescalendar()
). Entries in the week lists are tuples of day numbers and weekday numbers. Day numbers outside this month are zero.
- yeardayscalendar(year, width=3)¶
Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting (similar to
yeardatescalendar()
). Entries in the week lists are day numbers. Day numbers outside this month are zero.
- class calendar.TextCalendar(firstweekday=0)¶
This class can be used to generate plain text calendars.
TextCalendar
instances have the following methods:- formatmonth(theyear, themonth, w=0, l=0)¶
Return a month’s calendar in a multi-line string. If w is provided, it specifies the width of the date columns, which are centered. If l is given, it specifies the number of lines that each week will use. Depends on the first weekday as specified in the constructor or set by the
setfirstweekday()
method.
- prmonth(theyear, themonth, w=0, l=0)¶
Print a month’s calendar as returned by
formatmonth()
.
- formatyear(theyear, w=2, l=1, c=6, m=3)¶
Return a m-column calendar for an entire year as a multi-line string. Optional parameters w, l, and c are for date column width, lines per week, and number of spaces between month columns, respectively. Depends on the first weekday as specified in the constructor or set by the
setfirstweekday()
method. The earliest year for which a calendar can be generated is platform-dependent.
- pryear(theyear, w=2, l=1, c=6, m=3)¶
Print the calendar for an entire year as returned by
formatyear()
.
- class calendar.HTMLCalendar(firstweekday=0)¶
This class can be used to generate HTML calendars.
HTMLCalendar
instances have the following methods:- formatmonth(theyear, themonth, withyear=True)¶
Return a month’s calendar as an HTML table. If withyear is true the year will be included in the header, otherwise just the month name will be used.
- formatyear(theyear, width=3)¶
Return a year’s calendar as an HTML table. width (defaulting to 3) specifies the number of months per row.
- formatyearpage(theyear, width=3, css='calendar.css', encoding=None)¶
Return a year’s calendar as a complete HTML page. width (defaulting to 3) specifies the number of months per row. css is the name for the cascading style sheet to be used.
None
can be passed if no style sheet should be used. encoding specifies the encoding to be used for the output (defaulting to the system default encoding).
- formatmonthname(theyear, themonth, withyear=True)¶
Return a month name as an HTML table row. If withyear is true the year will be included in the row, otherwise just the month name will be used.
HTMLCalendar
has the following attributes you can override to customize the CSS classes used by the calendar:- cssclasses¶
A list of CSS classes used for each weekday. The default class list is:
cssclasses = ["mon", "tue", "wed", "thu", "fri", "sat", "sun"]
more styles can be added for each day:
cssclasses = ["mon text-bold", "tue", "wed", "thu", "fri", "sat", "sun red"]
Note that the length of this list must be seven items.
- cssclass_noday¶
The CSS class for a weekday occurring in the previous or coming month.
Added in version 3.7.
- cssclasses_weekday_head¶
A list of CSS classes used for weekday names in the header row. The default is the same as
cssclasses
.Added in version 3.7.
- cssclass_month_head¶
The month’s head CSS class (used by
formatmonthname()
). The default value is"month"
.Added in version 3.7.
- cssclass_month¶
The CSS class for the whole month’s table (used by
formatmonth()
). The default value is"month"
.Added in version 3.7.
- cssclass_year¶
The CSS class for the whole year’s table of tables (used by
formatyear()
). The default value is"year"
.Added in version 3.7.
- cssclass_year_head¶
The CSS class for the table head for the whole year (used by
formatyear()
). The default value is"year"
.Added in version 3.7.
Note that although the naming for the above described class attributes is singular (e.g.
cssclass_month
cssclass_noday
), one can replace the single CSS class with a space separated list of CSS classes, for example:"text-bold text-red"
Here is an example how
HTMLCalendar
can be customized:class CustomHTMLCal(calendar.HTMLCalendar): cssclasses = [style + " text-nowrap" for style in calendar.HTMLCalendar.cssclasses] cssclass_month_head = "text-center month-head" cssclass_month = "text-center month" cssclass_year = "text-italic lead"
- class calendar.LocaleTextCalendar(firstweekday=0, locale=None)¶
This subclass of
TextCalendar
can be passed a locale name in the constructor and will return month and weekday names in the specified locale.
- class calendar.LocaleHTMLCalendar(firstweekday=0, locale=None)¶
This subclass of
HTMLCalendar
can be passed a locale name in the constructor and will return month and weekday names in the specified locale.
Informacja
The constructor, formatweekday()
and formatmonthname()
methods
of these two classes temporarily change the LC_TIME
locale to the given
locale. Because the current locale is a process-wide setting, they are
not thread-safe.
For simple text calendars this module provides the following functions.
- calendar.setfirstweekday(weekday)¶
Sets the weekday (
0
is Monday,6
is Sunday) to start each week. The valuesMONDAY
