Nanakshahi is a ruby gem for Nanakshahi Calendar based on the original work by Pal Singh Purewal.

It provides helper methods to convert a Gregorian or Common Era(CE) date into Nanakshahi date and vice versa. You can use it to enable Nankshahi dates in any of your applications.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'nanakshahi'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install nanakshahi

Usage

To start using Nanakshahi gem

require 'nanakshahi'

Create a Nanakshahi date object

date = Nanakshahi.new # Creates an object with 1 Chet, Nanakshahi
date = Nanakshahi.new(550)
date = Nanakshahi.new(550, 10)
date = Nanakshahi.new(550, 10, 5)

Using common calendar/gregorian date

date = Nanakshahi.from_gregorian(2019,1,8)

Nanakshahi date today

date = Nanakshahi.today

Is it a gurpurab?

Nanakshahi.new(550,1,1).gurpurab?

What Gurpurabs fall on this day?

Nanakshahi.new(550,1,1).gurpurabs

Converting date object to Nanakshahi

Nankshahi gem monkey-patches Date class to provide it to_nanakshahi method

date = Date.new(2019-2-18)
p date.to_nanakshahi

Printing Nanakshahi date

to_s method prints Nanakshahi date either Nanakshahi or Dhundkaal suffix (pre-Guru Nanak). To take care of 0 year correction, like gregorian, it is assumed that 1 Dhundkaal precedes 1 Nanakshahi when printed with suffix.

date = Nanakshahi.new(1400-2-18)
puts date

To Gurmukhi

to_gurmukhi prints the date in Gurmukhi characters, complete with Gurmukhi numerals.

date = Nanakshahi.new(1400-2-18)
puts date.to_gurmukhi

For a complete list of all the methods, check out the documentation.
