It accepts a date to format, a reference time, and an optional locale code, then returns a human-readable string. The library supports many locales including ar, bg, ca, da, de, el, en, en_short, es, eu, fa_IR, fi, fr, gl, guj_IN, he, hu, in_BG, in_HI, in_ID, is, it, ja, ko, lt, ml, my, nb_NO, nl, nn_NO, pl, pt_PT, pt_BR, ro, ru, sk, sv_SE, ta, th, tr, uk, vi, zh_CN, and zh_TW.\n\nThe package has no external runtime dependencies and installs as a pure Python wheel. However, it is no longer maintained\u2014the last commit was 2022-09-14. While it may continue to work for straightforward use cases, it will not receive updates, bug fixes, or compatibility improvements for newer Python versions.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need simple relative time formatting and can tolerate an unmaintained package. The library is stable, has no dependencies, and works for basic use cases. However, do not use it if you require active maintenance, compatibility with the latest Python versions, or ongoing locale updates. For new projects, consider an actively maintained alternative."},"id":"timeago","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/timeago","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/timeago.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/timeago/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-08-18","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"timeago","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"A very simple python library, used to format datetime with `*** time ago` statement. eg: \"3 hours ago\"."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1030880,"position":4470,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.0.16"}
