Thai date and time string formatter

thai_strftime.py

# thai_strftime()
# Thai date and time string formatter
# Formatting directives similar to datetime.strftime()
#
# จัดรูปแบบข้อความวันที่และเวลา แบบเดียวกับ datetime.strftime()
# โดยจะใช้ชื่อเดือนเป็นภาษาไทย และปีเป็นพุทธศักราช
# (ไม่รองรับปีก่อน พ.ศ. 2484 - ก่อนการเปลี่ยนวันปีใหม่ไทย)

# Included in PyThaiNLP 2.0
# For a more complete code, see PyThaiNLP:
# https://github.com/PyThaiNLP/pythainlp/blob/dev/pythainlp/util/strftime.py
#
# It uses Thai names and Thai Buddhist era for these directives:
# - %a abbreviated weekday name
# - %A full weekday name
# - %b abbreviated month name
# - %B full month name
# - %y year without century
# - %Y year with century
# - %c date and time representation
# - %v short date representation (undocumented directive, please avoid)
#
# Other directives will be passed to datetime.strftime()
#
# Example:
# >>> datetime_obj = datetime(year=1976, month=10, day=6)
# >>> thai_strftime(datetime_obj, "%a %-d %b %y")
# 'พ 6 ต.ค. 19'
#
# See Python document for strftime:
# https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#strftime-strptime-behavior
#
# Note 1:
# The Thai Buddhist Era (BE) year is simply converted from AD by adding 543.
# This is certainly not accurate for years before 1941 AD,
# due to the change in Thai New Year's Day.
#
# Note 2:
# This meant to be an interrim solution, since Python standard's locale module
# (which relied on C's strftime()) does not support "th" or "th_TH" locale yet.
# If supported, we can just locale.setlocale(locale.LC_TIME, "th_TH") and
# then use native datetime.strftime().
