Dates basics

Calendar arithmetic on ISO dates: add days and months, count days and working days, bank holidays, quarters, recurrence and durations.

21 capabilities (9 core, 12 optional) and 3 gaps, in build order. Put each line in the file that calls it, then fune build.

1. Calendar arithmetic

Move and measure ISO dates exactly, with no date library and no clock reads.

dates.add-days core
Shifts a date by whole days, for due dates and windows.
Shift an ISO date by a whole number of days, forwards or backwards, with exact calendar arithmetic.

from fune.dates.add_months import add_months  # dates.add-months@^1
dates.days-between core

dates.month-boundaries core
First and last day of a date's month, for monthly periods and statements.
The first day, last day and length of the calendar month containing a date.
from fune.dates.month_boundaries import month_boundaries  # dates.month-boundaries@^1
dates.day-of-week core
ISO weekday of a date, for weekend rules and opening hours.

from fune.dates.is_leap_year import is_leap_year  # dates.is-leap-year@^1
dates.overlap optional
Days two date ranges share, for prorating and clash checks.
Days two date ranges have in common, with the end of each range stated as inclusive or exclusive.
from fune.dates.overlap import overlap_days  # dates.overlap@^1
dates.age optional
Age in whole years on a date, handling 29 February birthdays.
Age in whole years on a given date, with 29 February birthdays ageing on 1 March in other years.

2. Periods and reporting dates

Put dates into the periods reports are grouped by.

dates.quarter core
Calendar and fiscal quarter of a date for any year-start month.
Calendar quarter and fiscal quarter of a date, with the fiscal year and quarter date ranges, for any start month.
from fune.dates.quarter import quarter  # dates.quarter@^1
dates.week-number optional
ISO week number and week-year, for weekly reports.
ISO 8601 week number and week-numbering year of a date: weeks start Monday, week 1 holds the first Thursday.
from fune.dates.week_number import week_number  # dates.week-number@^1
dates.day-count-fraction optional
Year fraction by ACT/365F, ACT/360, 30/360 or ACT/ACT, for interest periods.
Year fraction between two dates by ACT/365F, ACT/360, 30/360, 30E/360 or ACT/ACT ISDA, as an exact fraction.
from fune.dates.day_count_fraction import day_count_fraction  # dates.day-count-fraction@^1

3. Working days and holidays

Skip weekends and public holidays when counting or adding days.

dates.bank-holidays core
UK bank holidays for a region and year, as gov.uk publishes them.
UK bank and public holidays for a region and year, as published by gov.uk, including one-off holidays.
from fune.dates.bank_holidays import bank_holidays  # dates.bank-holidays@^1
dates.add-business-days core
Moves a date by working days, skipping weekends and a holiday list.

4. Repeating schedules

Generate the dates of something that repeats.

dates.recurrence optional
The next n dates of a rule: monthly on the 31st, last Friday, every two weeks.

from fune.dates.recurrence import recurrence  # dates.recurrence@^1

5. Times and durations

Minutes from one local date and time to another, correct across midnight; wall-clock time, no time zones.
from fune.time.minutes_between import minutes_between  # time.minutes-between@^1
time.round-to-increment optional
Rounds minutes to a billing increment such as 6 or 15.
Round a duration in minutes to a billing increment such as 6 or 15 minutes, up, down or to nearest.

time.iso-to-unix optional

Seconds left until a Unix time, whether it has passed, and a timer text like 4:05, for tokens or retry waits.
from fune.time.countdown import countdown  # time.countdown@^1

Gaps

What this kind of app usually needs that Functional Weave does not have yet: write these yourself, or use a service.

  • time-zones Time zones and daylight saving: caps works in ISO dates, UTC and wall-clock times; converting with the IANA tz rules is yours.
  • locale-formatting Showing dates in a user's language and format ("3 octobre 2026"): caps returns ISO dates, not localised text.
  • non-uk-holidays Public holidays outside the UK: dates.bank-holidays is UK only; pass another country's list to the working-day functions yourself.
