The dateutil module provides powerful extensions to the standard datetime
module.
Features
* Computing of relative deltas (next month, next year, next monday, last week
of month, etc);
* Computing of relative deltas between two given date and/or datetime objects;
* Computing of dates based on very flexible recurrence rules, using a superset
of the iCalendar specification. Parsing of RFC strings is supported as well.
* Generic parsing of dates in almost any string format;
* Timezone (tzinfo) implementations for tzfile(5) format files
(/etc/localtime, /usr/share/zoneinfo, etc), TZ environment string (in all
known formats), iCalendar format files, given ranges (with help from
relative deltas), local machine timezone, fixed offset timezone, and UTC
timezone.
* Computing of Easter Sunday dates for any given year, using Western, Orthodox
or Julian algorithms;
* More than 400 test cases.
This package contains the Python-3.x version of the module.
Changes compared to py-dateutil-1.5:
Version 2.0
-----------
- Ported to Python 3, by Brian Jones. If you need dateutil for Python 2.X,
please continue using the 1.X series.
- There's no such thing as a "PSF License". This source code is now
made available under the Simplified BSD license. See LICENSE for

Upstream changes:
1.06 2013-12-31
- DateTime's attempt to generate infinity by calculating 9**9**9 actually got
a number on some platforms, like powerpcspe. Reported by Gregor Hermann. RT
#91696.
1.05 2013-12-22
- Added a new CLDR ZZZZZ specifier, which is like ZZZ but inserts a
colon. Patch by Ricardo Signes.
- Added a new option for the truncate() method to truncate to the
"local_week". This truncates to the locale's notion of the first day of the
week, rather than always truncating to Monday. Patch by Christian Hansen.
1.04 2013-12-07
- Calling set_locale() or set_formatter() on an object with an ambiguous local
time could change the underlying UTC time for that object. Reported by Marta
Cuaresma Saturio. RT #90583.

1.63 2013-10-28
- This release is based on version 2013h of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Morocco, Librya, and Western Sahara (El
Aaiun).
1.62 2013-09-25
- This release is based on version 2013f of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Tocantins, Jordan, and Palestine.
1.61 2013-09-20
- This release is based on version 2013e of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Fiji, Indonesia and San Luis,
Argentina. It also includes a number of historical changes. See
http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz-announce/2013-September/000013.html for
more details.
Dateutils are a bunch of tools that revolve around fiddling with
dates and times in the command line with a strong focus on use
cases that arise when dealing with large amounts of financial data.
Dateutils commands are prefixed with a `d` but otherwise resemble
known unix commands for reasons of intuition. The only exception
being `strptime` which is analogous to the libc function of the
same name.
Upstream changes:
1.9726 [2013-08-17]
- Correct s/us splitting of usleep(1000000) [rt.cpan.org #78266].
- Avoid integer overflow in itimer-based alarm() with large
argument [rt.cpan.org #87160].
- Define PERL_NO_INLINE_FUNCTIONS during probe compilations, to
avoid false negatives caused by not linking with the perl core.
- Be more careful about context in stat().
- Install into "site" directories by default on perl 5.11+
[rt.cpan.org #79797].
- Fix a couple of doc typos [rt.cpan.org #85365].
- Fix function name in a doc example [rt.cpan.org #86318].
- Provide lstat() that yields high-res timestamps, alongside
the existing high-res stat() [rt.cpan.org #78732].
