Date and time manipulation routines for the use of weather data

Python API

When is the next Tuesday?

import datetime
from earthkit.time import WeeklySequence
from earthkit.time.calendar import TUESDAY
sequence = WeeklySequence(TUESDAY)
next_tue = sequence.next(datetime.date.today())
print(f"Next Tuesday: {next_tue:%Y%m%d}")

Pre-defined sequences

import datetime
from earthkit.time import Sequence
sequence = Sequence.from_resource("ecmwf-4days")
dates = sequence.range(datetime.date(2024, 2, 1), datetime.date(2024, 3, 1), include_end=False)
print("February dates:", ", ".join(date.strftime("%Y%m%d") for date in dates))

Model climate dates

import datetime
from earthkit.time import Sequence, model_climate_dates
sequence = Sequence.from_resource("ecmwf-2days")
dates = model_climate_dates(datetime.date(2024, 2, 12), 2020, 2023, 7, 7, sequence)
print("Model climate dates:", ", ".join(date.strftime("%Y%m%d") for date in dates))

Command-line interface
