This module aims to help you create time periods as easily as if by a
snap of your finger.
Pass in a `datetime.datetime()` object and a period name and it'll
return the beginning and end of that period.
Documentation available on `Read the Docs`_.
Installation:
-------------
You can install from pypi!
.. code-block::
pip install datetime_periods
`period` usage
------
Pass in a `datetime.datetime()` object and a period name and it'll
return the beginning and end of that period.
.. code-block::
>>> from datetime_periods import period
>>> period(datetime(2012, 4, 2, second=12), 'minute')
[datetime(2012, 4, 2), datetime(2012, 4, 2, 0, 0, 59)]
>>> period(datetime(2012, 4, 2), 'hour')
[datetime(2012, 4, 2, 0), datetime(2012, 4, 2, 0, 59, 59)]
>>> period(datetime(2012, 4, 2), 'day')
[datetime(2012, 4, 2), datetime(2012, 4, 2, 23, 59, 59)]
>>> period(datetime(2012, 4, 2), 'week')
[datetime(2012, 4, 2), datetime(2012, 4, 8, 23, 59, 59)]
>>> period(datetime(2012, 4, 15), 'month')
[datetime(2012, 4, 1), datetime(2012, 4, 30, 23, 59, 59)]
>>> period(datetime(2012, 4, 2), 'quarter')
[datetime(2012, 4, 1), datetime(2012, 6, 30, 23, 59, 59)]
>>> period(datetime(2012, 9, 1), 'half_year')
[datetime(2012, 7, 1), datetime(2012, 12, 31, 23, 59, 59)]
>>> period(datetime(2012, 7, 1), 'year')
[datetime(2012, 1, 1), datetime(2012, 12, 31, 23, 59, 59)]
`TimeRange` usage
------
The `TimeRange` class takes two times, `start` and `stop`, and creates
`datetime` objects from them that is smart about when a date should
roll over to the following day.
This class can also act like a 2 length list where index 0=start,
1=stop time. This to allow the class to be used for argument
expansion and as an iterator.
.. code-block::
>>> from datetime_periods import TimeRange
>>> tr = TimeRange('17:00', '23:00', '2013-12-25')
>>> tr.start
datetime(2013, 12, 25, 17)
>>> tr.stop
datetime(2013, 12, 25, 23)
>>> tr = TimeRange('17:00', '04:00', '2013-12-25')
>>> tr.start
datetime(2013, 12, 25, 17)
>>> tr.stop
datetime(2013, 12, 26, 4)
>>> tr[0] == tr.start
True
>>> tr[1] == tr.stop
True
Sugar
-----
The `sugar` module has sugar functions for all variants available.
Sugar functions for entire period:
* `period_second`
* `period_minute`
* `period_hour`
* `period_day`
* `period_week`
* `period_month`
* `period_quarter`
* `period_half_year`
* `period_year`
Sugar functions for beginning of period:
* `period_beginning_second`
* `period_beginning_minute`
* `period_beginning_hour`
* `period_beginning_day`
* `period_beginning_week`
* `period_beginning_month`
* `period_beginning_quarter`
* `period_beginning_half_year`
* `period_beginning_year`
Sugar functions for end of period:
* `period_end_second`
* `period_end_minute`
* `period_end_hour`
* `period_end_day`
* `period_end_week`
* `period_end_month`
* `period_end_quarter`
* `period_end_half_year`
