> Compatible with Python 3.9+ · No external dependencies · Portable and lightweight

## 🚀 TL;DR

```python
from eones import Eones
# 1.3M ops/sec - The fastest semantic datetime in Python
now = Eones() 
next_month = now.add(months=1)
print(next_month.format("%Y-%m-%d"))
```

---

## ✨ What is Eones?

Eones is a minimalist, dependency-free library for expressive, clear, and powerful date/time manipulation. Inspired by natural language semantics, it allows you to manipulate, compare, and transform dates as if they were living entities.

> *"That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange aeons even death may die."*  
> — *Abdul Alhazred*, Necronomicon

### Philosophy

> **Eones is not a datetime replacement. It's a temporal reasoning layer.**

Eones exists to fill the gap between Python's low-level `datetime` and the need for semantic, calendar-aware date manipulation:

- Using **only the standard library** (Python 3.9+)
- Providing a **semantically rich and consistent API**
- Supporting modern timezone-aware design with `zoneinfo`
- Maintaining **modular and composable** architecture through clear separation of responsibilities (`Date`, `Delta`, `Range`)

**Eones is for:**
- Developers who want to reason about time semantically, not just manipulate timestamps
- Teams that want **zero external dependencies** for maximum portability
- Projects where **timezones, truncation, deltas and ranges** are central domain logic

---

## 📦 Installation

```bash
pip install eones
```

### Timezone support (Optional)
If you're working on Windows or in environments without native zoneinfo data, install the timezone extra:

```bash
pip install "eones[tz]"
```

---

## 🧪 Basic Example

```python
from eones import Eones

e = Eones("2025-06-15")

print(e.add(months=1, days=3))                       # → Eones(date=2025-07-18T00:00:00+00:00, tz='UTC')
print(e.format("%Y-%m-%d"))                          # → 2025-07-18
print(e.diff_for_humans("2025-06-10"))               # → in 1 month
print(e.diff_for_humans("2025-06-20", locale="es"))  # → en 4 semanas
```

## 🔍 Key Features

- ✅ **Zero external dependencies**: Pure Python (Python 3.9+)
- ✅ **Intuitive interface**: Simple, semantically rich and easy-to-use API
- ✅ **Modern timezone support**: Robust handling with `zoneinfo` (not `pytz`)
- ✅ **Flexible parsing**: Accepts multiple date formats automatically, including ISO 8601 with timezone offsets
- ✅ **Advanced temporal operations**: Deltas, ranges and semantic comparisons
- ✅ **Modular architecture**: Clear separation between `Date`, `Delta`, `Range` and utilities
- ✅ **Localization**: Support for multiple languages
- ✅ **Humanization**: Converts time differences to readable text
- ✅ **Complete type hinting**: Fully typed following PEP 561
- ✅ **Interoperability**: Compatible with Python's standard `datetime`

### Localization & Error Handling

You can add more languages by creating a new file in `eones/locales/` with the
translations for your locale. For example, `fr.py` for French.

Eones surfaces clear exceptions derived from `EonesError`. Invalid timezones
raise `InvalidTimezoneError`, while unparsable strings raise
`InvalidFormatError`.
