A Python module for localization of Extended Date Time Format (EDTF) level 0 strings.

EDTF is a syntax for specifying imprecise dates. See http://www.loc.gov/standards/datetime/. This modules relies on python-edtf for EDTF parsing.

Babel-EDTF is on PyPI so all you need is:

$ pip install babel-edtf

Let's format some EDTF strings:

>>> from babel_edtf import format_edtf
>>> format_edtf('2020-01', locale='en')
'Jan 2020'

>>> format_edtf('2020-01/2020-09', locale='da')
'jan.–sep. 2020'

>>> format_edtf('2020-01/2020-09', format='long', locale='en')
'January\u2009–\u2009September 2020'

The following formats are supported:

• short
• medium
• long
• full
