`nepali` is a python package containing features that will be useful for Nepali projects.

The major feature of this package is nepalidatetime, which is compatible with python's datetime feature. It helps nepali date to english, parsing nepali datetime, nepali timezone, and timedelta support in nepali datetime.

## Example

```python
import datetime
from nepali import phone_number
from nepali.datetime import nepalidate, parser

nepali_datetime = parser.parse('2079-02-15')
# 2079-02-15 00:00:00

date = datetime.date(2017, 3, 15)
nepali_date = nepalidate.from_date(date)
# 2073-12-02

phone_number.parse("+977-9845217789")
# {
#     'type':      'Mobile',

## Date and Time

### date_converter

Date converter module converts english date to nepali and nepali date to english. It doesn't contain any extra functionality.

**Convert English date to Nepali date**

```python
from nepali.date_converter import converter

np_year, np_month, np_date = converter.english_to_nepali(en_year, en_month, en_date)
```

Example

```python
from nepali.date_converter import converter

np_year, np_month, np_date = converter.english_to_nepali(2023, 2, 7)
print(np_year, np_month, np_date) # 2079 10 24
```

**Convert Nepali date to English date**

```python
from nepali.date_converter import converter

en_year, en_month, en_date = converter.nepali_to_english(np_year, np_month, np_date)
```

Example

```python
from nepali.date_converter import converter

en_year, en_month, en_date = converter.nepali_to_english(2079, 10, 24)
print(en_year, en_month, en_date) # 2023 2 7
```

### nepalidate

**Creating a new nepalidate object**

```python
from nepali.datetime import nepalidate

# nepalidate object with year, month, day
np_date = nepalidate(year, month, day)

# nepalidate object with today's date
np_date = nepalidate.today()

# parse nepali date
np_date = nepalidate.strptime('2078-01-18', format='%Y-%m-%d')
```

**Getting nepalidate object from python datetime**

```python
# from date object
np_date = nepalidate.from_date(date_obj)

# from datetime object
np_date = nepalidate.from_datetime(datetime_obj)
```

**Attributes and Methods**

```python
np_date.year                       # 2078 (year)
np_date.month                      # 1 (month)
np_date.day                        # 18 (day)

np_date.to_date()                  # datetime.date object
np_date.to_datetime()              # datetime.datetime object
np_date.to_nepalidatetime()        # nepalidatetime object

np_date.strftime("%Y-%m-%d")       # 2078-01-18
np_date.strftime_ne("%Y-%m-%d")    # २०७८-०१-१८

np_date.weekday()                  # Sunday => 0, Monday => 1, ..., Saturday => 6
```

### nepalidatetime

**Creating a new nepalidatetime object**

```python
from nepali.datetime import nepalidatetime

# nepalidate object with year, month, day, hour, minute, second
np_datetime = nepalidatetime(year, month, day[, hour[, minute[, second]]])

# nepalidate object with current date and time
np_datetime = nepalidate.now()
np_datetime = nepalidate.today()

# parse nepali datetime
np_datetime = nepalidatetime.strptime('2078-01-12 13:12', format='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M')
```

**Getting nepalidatetime object from python datetime**

```python
# from date object
np_datetime = nepalidatetime.from_date(date_obj)

# from datetime object
np_datetime = nepalidatetime.from_datetime(datetime_obj)
```

**Getting nepalidatetime object from nepalidate**

```python
np_datetime = nepalidatetime.from_nepalidate(nepali_date)
```

**Attributes and Methods**

```python
np_date.year                             # 2078 (year)
np_date.month                            # 1 (month)
np_date.day                              # 18 (day)
np_date.hour                             # 23 (hour)
np_date.minute                           # 59 (minute)
np_date.second                           # 59 (day)

np_date.to_date()                        # datetime.date object
np_date.to_datetime()                    # datetime.datetime object
np_date.to_nepalidate()                  # nepalidatetime object
np_date.to_time()                        # nepalitime object (datetime.time compatible)

np_date.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M")       # 2078-01-18 23:59
np_date.strftime_ne("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M")    # २०७८-०१-१८ २३:५९

np_date.weekday()                        # Sunday => 0, Monday => 1, ..., Saturday => 6
```

**Timedelta support**

```python
# timedelta addition and subtraction
np_datetime - datetime.timedelta(days=3)       # returns nepalidatetime

# comparison between two dates
np_datetime1 - np_datetime2                    # returns timedelta object
np_datetime1 < np_datetime2                    # returns bool (True/False)
np_datetime1 >= datetime.datetime.now()        # returns bool (True/False)
...
```

### nepalihumanize

Returns readable form of nepali date.

```python
from nepali.datetime import nepalihumanize


nepalihumanize(datetime, [threshold, format])
```

The `threshold` is and optional field and is in seconds and the format is for the `strftime` format. If the datetime object crosses the threshold it print the date with the format. The `format` is also an optional and is `%B %d, %Y` in default.

Example

```python
from nepali.datetime import nepalihumanize, nepalidatetime

np_datetime = nepalidatetime(2079, 10, 5)
output = nepalihumanize(np_datetime)
# output: ३ महिना अघि

output = nepalihumanize(np_datetime, threshold=1400)
# 1400 = 2 * 30 * 24; two months threshold
# output: माघ ०५, २०७९
```

### timezone

**NepaliTimeZone**
You can use `NepaliTimeZone` directly to your datetime object.

```python
from nepali.timezone import NepaliTimeZone

datetime.datetime(2018, 8, 12, 16, 23, tzinfo=NepaliTimeZone())
```

**now**
Returns current datetime object with timezone

```python
from nepali import timezone

timezone.now()
```

`datetime.now()` vs `timezone.now()`:
`datetime.now()` doesn't contain timezone, but `timezone.now()` will contain timezone of the system.

**utc_now**
Returns current UTC datetime object (with timezone UTC)

```python
from nepali import timezone

timezone.utc_now()
```

### parse

Parses date with commonly used date formats. Auto detects date format. If you are sure about the format, please use `strptime`.

```python
from nepali.datetime.parser import parse

np_datetime = parse(datetime_str)
```

Example

```python
np_datetime = parse("2079-02-15")                     # 2079-02-15 00:00:00
np_datetime = parse("२०७८-०१-१८")                      # 2078-01-15 00:00:00
np_datetime = parse("2079/02/15")                     # 2079-02-15 00:00:00
np_datetime = parse("2079-02-15 15:23")               # 2079-02-15 15:23:00
np_datetime = parse("2079-02-15 5:23 AM")             # 2079-02-15 05:23:00
np_datetime = parse("2079-02-15 5:23 AM")             # 2079-02-15 05:23:00
np_datetime = parse("Jestha 15, 2079")                # 2079-02-15 00:00:00

```

## Numbers

```python
from nepali import number
```

**convert**
Converts english number to nepali.

```python
np_number = number.convert("1234567890")  # १२३४५६७८९०
```

**revert**
Converts english number to nepali.

```python
en_number = number.revert("१२३४५६७८९०")  # 1234567890
```

**add_comma**
Adds comma in nepali numbers.

```python

### nepalinumber
`nepalinumber` is a new data type, which can be used to represent Nepali (Devanagari) numbers. It allows us to perform arithmetic operations, just like with int and float. Additionally, it can be used to parse numbers and output them in Devanagari format.

```python
from nepali.number import nepalinumber
```

**Parsing**
```python
a = nepalinumber("१८.२७")
print(a)  # 18.27

b = nepalinumber(15)
print(b)  # 15
```

**Nepali (Devanagari) output**
```python
a = nepalinumber("18.27")
print(a.str_ne())  # १८.२७
```

**Arithmetic operations**
```python
a = nepalinumber("1")
b = nepalinumber("२")
c = a + b * 3
print(c)  # 7
```
---

## Phone Number

```python
from nepali import phone_number
```

**is_valid**
Checks is the given number is a valid nepali phone number.

```python
phone_number.is_valid("9851377890")      # True
phone_number.is_valid("+977-142314819")  # True

phone_number.is_valid("8251377890")      # False
```

**parse**
Parse phone number and returns details of the number.

```python
phone_number.parse("9851377890")
# {'type': 'Mobile', 'number': '9851377890', 'operator': <Operator: Nepal Telecom>}

phone_number.parse("+977-142314819")
# {'type': 'Landline', 'number': '0142314819', 'area_code': '01'}
```

---
