About:
Hebcal is a comprehensive command-line tool and library for generating Jewish calendar information. It calculates holidays, Torah readings, candle lighting times, and anniversaries based on computational rules established by the Sanhedrin. It provides a powerful engine for converting between Hebrew and Gregorian dates with high precision.
|
Key Features:
- Converts between Hebrew and Gregorian calendars
- Generates detailed Torah readings (Parashat HaShavua) and holiday lists
- Computes candle lighting and Havdalah times for any location
- Supports output in JSON, CSV, iCalendar, and XML formats
- Written in Go for fast performance and easy deployment
|
Use Cases:
- Integrating Jewish calendar data into applications and websites
- Scheduling reminders for Shabbat, holidays, and fasts
- Generating custom calendar PDFs or spreadsheets for community use
- Automating date conversion in scientific or historical research
|
Alternatives:
-
dateutils

-
kcalendar
– GUI-based calendar apps, less suited for scripting and automation
