It handles the full lifecycle: repetitions defined by RRULE, removals via EXDATE, and later edits to specific instances. You pass it a Calendar object from the icalendar library and query for events at a specific date or date range; it returns the expanded list of actual occurrences.\n\nThe package wraps six runtime dependencies\u2014icalendar for parsing, python-dateutil for date math, tzdata and x-wr-timezone for timezone handling, typing-extensions for type hints, and backports-zoneinfo for older Python versions. It supports Python 3.8 through 3.14 and is actively maintained. There are no known security vulnerabilities.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is production-stable, actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and solves a genuine RFC 5545 complexity that most calendar applications need. The LGPL-3.0-or-later license is permissive for most use cases (including proprietary software that doesn't modify the library itself). Install it if you work with iCalendar data and need to expand recurrence rules."},"id":"recurring-ical-events","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/recurring-ical-events","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/recurring-ical-events.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/recurring-ical-events/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-04-30","license_spdx":"LGPL-3.0-or-later","license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"recurring-ical-events","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Calculate recurrence times of events, todos, alarms and journals based on icalendar RFC5545."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2361315,"position":3103,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.8.2"}
