Python Opening Hours parser

THIS PROJECT HAS MOVED TO parse-opening-hours. PLEASE USE THAT PACKAGE IF YOU WANT UPDATES

This library parses opening hours from various human-readable strings such as "Mon- Fri 9:00am - 5:30pm" into a more standard JSON format that can be processed more easily.

The format

opening_hours = [
	{
		"day": "monday",
		"opens": "9:00",
		"closes": "17:00"
	},
	//..
]

Installation

pip install jsonify-opening-hours

Usage

The simplest example is just printing the JSON for an opening hours string:

from opening_hours import OpeningHours

print(OpeningHours.parse("Mon- Fri 9:00am - 5:30pm").json())

This should give you the below output:

[
	{'day': 'monday', 'opens': '9:00', 'closes': '17:30'},
	{'day': 'tuesday', 'opens': '9:00', 'closes': '17:30'},
	{'day': 'wednesday', 'opens': '9:00', 'closes': '17:30'},
	{'day': 'thursday', 'opens': '9:00', 'closes': '17:30'},
	{'day': 'friday', 'opens': '9:00', 'closes': '17:30'}
]

This has been tested using Python 3.8.5

Documentation

In addition to this README, there is some documentation generated from inline documentation comments. This is available at htttps://moralcode.github.io/jsonify-opening-hours/

Environment variables

Setting the environment variable OH_DEBUG to a value of Y will set the root logging level to debug and will cause log entries to appear in stdout for debugging purposes

Troubleshooting

Assumptions

When specifying a time without AM or PM indicators, you may get an error that reads TypeError: Cannot convert a time of unknown type (AM, PM or 24H) without assuming its type.. To resolve this, pass assume_type=TimeType.AM when calling the parse() function. This will use AM in place of an unknown AM or PM designation. In cases like the string "9-5", if the second value in the range (in this case the 5 is smaller than the first (i.e. the 9) then it will be converted to PM automatically
