It handles bidirectional conversion between Hebrew and Gregorian calendars, date arithmetic (finding dates at given durations or differences), and calendar-specific lookups like holiday identification and weekly Torah portion assignments. The library also supports generating formatted Hebrew calendars in both text and HTML.\n\nThe package is designed for applications that need to work with Jewish calendar logic\u2014scheduling religious observances, generating liturgical calendars, or building Hebrew date-aware applications. It requires Python 3.8 or later and has no external runtime dependencies, making it straightforward to integrate into existing projects.","worth_installing":"Yes. Pyluach is production-stable, actively maintained, has no external dependencies, and fills a specific niche for Hebrew calendar handling. It carries no known vulnerabilities and is licensed permissively. Install it if your application needs to work with Hebrew dates, holidays, or Torah portions; skip it if you only need Gregorian calendar operations."},"id":"pyluach","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyluach","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyluach.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pyluach/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-09-09","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pyluach","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A Python package for dealing with Hebrew (Jewish) calendar dates."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":4908069,"position":2201,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.3.0"}
