grutil

A Python utility library providing helper functions for working with Greek-specific formats, dates, numbers, and validators.

Features

📅 Date & Time Utilities (datetimes)

Convert between ISO 8601 and Greek date formats, and perform datetime operations:

• iso2gr(iso_date_str) - Convert ISO date (YYYY-MM-DD) to Greek format (DD/MM/YYYY)
• gr2iso(gr_date) - Convert Greek date (DD/MM/YYYY) to ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD)
• date2gr(date_obj) - Convert Python date object to Greek format string
• gr2date(gr_date) - Convert Greek date string to Python date object
• iso2yearmonth(isodate) - Extract year-month from ISO date (2023-01-15 → 2023-01)
• is_greek_date(grdate) - Validate if string matches Greek date format
• delta_hours(date_from, date_to) - Calculate hours between two datetime objects
• round_half(hours) - Round hours to nearest half hour

🔢 Number Utilities (numbers)

Handle Greek number formatting (using comma as decimal separator and period as thousands separator):

• gr2float(gr_number_str) - Convert Greek-formatted number (1.234.567,89) to float
• float2gr(number, decimals=2) - Convert float to Greek-formatted string
• float2gr_empty_zero(number, decimals=2) - Convert float to Greek format, returns empty string for zero

📝 Text Utilities (texts)

Greek text processing utilities:

• grup(text) - Normalize Greek text by converting to uppercase and removing accents/diacritics for comparison

✅ Validators (validators)

Validate Greek identification numbers:

• is_valid_afm(afm) - Validate Greek VAT number (AFM - 9 digits)
• is_valid_amka(amka) - Validate Greek Social Security Number (AMKA - 11 digits)

Installation

pip install grutil

Or using uv:

uv add grutil

Usage Examples

Date Conversions

from grutil.datetimes import iso2gr, gr2iso, gr2date

# Convert ISO to Greek format
greek_date = iso2gr("2024-03-15")  # Returns: "15/03/2024"

# Convert Greek to ISO format
iso_date = gr2iso("15/03/2024")  # Returns: "2024-03-15"

# Convert Greek string to date object
date_obj = gr2date("15/03/2024")  # Returns: datetime.date(2024, 3, 15)

Number Formatting

from grutil.numbers import gr2float, float2gr

# Parse Greek-formatted number
value = gr2float("1.234.567,89")  # Returns: 1234567.89

# Format number as Greek
formatted = float2gr(1234567.89)  # Returns: "1.234.567,89"
formatted = float2gr(1234.5, decimals=3)  # Returns: "1.234,500"

Text Processing

from grutil.texts import grup

# Normalize Greek text for comparison
normalized = grup("Αθήνα")  # Returns: "ΑΘΗΝΑ"
normalized = grup("Ελλάδα")  # Returns: "ΕΛΛΑΔΑ"

# Useful for case-insensitive comparisons
if grup(user_input) == grup("ΑΘΉΝΑ"):
    print("Match!")

Validators

from grutil.validators import is_valid_afm, is_valid_amka

# Validate Greek VAT number (AFM)
is_valid_afm("123456789")  # Returns: True or False

# Validate Greek Social Security Number (AMKA)
is_valid_amka("12345678901")  # Returns: True or False
