It provides a `now` tag that retrieves the current time in any timezone, formats it using strftime patterns, and supports relative time offsets (adding or subtracting hours, days, minutes, etc.). The extension also allows you to set a default datetime format on the environment to reduce boilerplate in templates.\n\nThe package integrates arrow for its underlying datetime handling and is designed for use cases where templates need to render dynamic timestamps or time-relative content. It has no runtime dependencies beyond jinja2 and arrow, making it lightweight to install. However, it has been abandoned since 2016 with no active maintenance, so it may not work with very recent Python or dependency versions.","worth_installing":"No\u2014not for new projects. The package is abandoned (last release 2016-06-08, last commit 2022-06-18) and offers only a thin convenience layer over jinja2 and arrow. For modern code, use arrow or Python's datetime directly in your template context, or consider a maintained Jinja2 extension. Install only if maintaining legacy code that already depends on it."},"id":"jinja2-time","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/jinja2-time","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/jinja2-time.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/jinja2-time/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2016-06-08","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"jinja2-time","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Jinja2 Extension for Dates and Times"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1617898,"position":3713,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.2.0"}
