This file is intended to be used by anyone who needs to be able to list all holidays with corresponding dates for a specific country. An example could be to see if a future date is a banking day or not.
Currently, only Sweden (SE) is completely implemented.
country_holidays.py essentially produces a class object 'Calendar' given a few parameters. The holidays are a pandas DataFrame with dates as the index and the English name of the corresponding holiday.
country_holidays.py relies on date_utils.py to work.
pandas datetime date_utils.py (included in this repo)
import country_holidays as ch
import datetime as dt
start_year = dt.datetime(2017, 1, 1)
end_year = dt.datetime(2018, 1, 1)
sweden = ch.Calendar('SE', start_year, end_year)
print(sweden.holidays)Results in a DataFrame:
