Django Jalali Date

To use Django Jalali Date in your Django project, you can follow these steps:

  1. Install the required package: Start by installing the "django-jalali" package. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal: pip install django-jalali

  2. Add "jalali_date" to your Django project's settings: Open your project's settings.py file and add "jalali_date" to the list of installed apps. It should look something like this: python INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... 'jalali_date', ... ]

  3. Update your models: If you want to use the Jalali date in your models, you need to update your date fields to use the "JalaliDateField" or "JalaliDateTimeField" instead of the default "DateField" or "DateTimeField". For example: ```python from jalali_date.fields import JalaliDateField

class MyModel(models.Model): ... my_date = JalaliDateField() ... ```

  1. Update your forms: If you want to use Jalali date fields in your forms, you need to use the "JalaliDateField" or "JalaliDateTimeField" in your form definition. For example: ```python from jalali_date.fields import JalaliDateField from django import forms

class MyForm(forms.Form): ... my_date = JalaliDateField() ... ```

  1. Update your views: If you want to display or process Jalali dates in your views, you need to use the provided conversion functions. For example, to convert a Gregorian date to Jalali, you can use the "to_jalali" function: ```python from jalali_date.utils import to_jalali

def my_view(request): ... gregorian_date = datetime.date.today() jalali_date = to_jalali(gregorian_date) ... ```

  1. Update your templates: If you want to display Jalali dates in your templates, you can use the provided template filters. For example, to format a Jalali date, you can use the "jalali" filter: ```html

    {{ my_date|jalali }}

```

That's it! With these steps, you should be able to use Django Jalali Date in your Django project. Remember to consult the official documentation for more detailed instructions and advanced usage.
