Z3locales is a library which translates dates in Zope 2 to the current user language using Zope 3 technology.

Those functions are available in the module localdatetime:

get_formatted_now(request)

Return the current date formatted and translated in the current user language. The target user language is determined via the provided request.

get_formatted_date(date, size="full", request=_marker, locale=_marker, display_time=True)

Take a date (should be a tuple (year, month, day[, hour[, minute[, second]]]) or a Python datetime object), format it and translate it in the target user language (determined via locale or the given request). The modifier size and display_time can be used to change the output.

get_month_names(request=_marker, locale=_marker, calendar='gregorian')

Return a list of month names translated in the target language (determined via locale or the given request).

get_month_abbreviations(request=_marker, locale=_marker, calendar='gregorian')

Return a list of month abbreviations (usually the first three letters) translated in the target user language (determined via locale or the given request).

get_locale_info(request)

Return the locale representing the target user language using the provided request. This locale can be used after by other functions of this package.

Compatibility API exists with previous versions.
