    }
  }
}

Direct Usage

You can also use the helper functions directly:

# Run with uv
uv run python -c "
from src.utils import LunarHelper
result = LunarHelper.solar_to_lunar(2024, 1, 1)
print(result['lunar_date_chinese'])  # 二〇二三年冬月二十
"

# Calculate BaZi
uv run python -c "
from src.utils import LunarHelper
result = LunarHelper.get_bazi(1990, 1, 1, 8, 30)
print(result['bazi_string'])  # 己巳 丙子 丙寅 壬辰
"
