# morilog/jalali - Jalali (Persian/Iranian) Calendar Library for PHP

## Introduction

The morilog/jalali package is a comprehensive PHP library designed for working with the Jalali (Shamsi or Iranian) calendar system. The Jalali calendar is a solar calendar used in Iran and Afghanistan, offering precise astronomical calculations based on the algorithm provided by Kazimierz M. Borkowski. This library provides seamless conversion between Gregorian and Jalali calendars, enabling developers to handle Persian dates with the same ease as working with standard PHP DateTime objects.

The library features an immutable, fluent API for date manipulation, comparison, and formatting. Built on top of Carbon, it provides familiar methods for adding/subtracting time units, comparing dates, and formatting output in Persian. Core functionality includes calendar conversion utilities, date validation, leap year detection, and Persian/Afghan month name localization. The library is particularly valuable for applications targeting Iranian or Afghan users, financial systems operating on the Iranian fiscal calendar, or any system requiring accurate Jalali date handling.

## API Documentation and Code Examples

### Create Jalalian Instance from Current Time

Create a Jalalian date object representing the current moment, optionally with a specific timezone.

```php
<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Morilog\Jalali\Jalalian;

// Create current Jalali date
$now = Jalalian::now();
echo $now->toString(); // Output: 1403-08-29 14:30:45

// With timezone
$tehran = new \DateTimeZone('Asia/Tehran');
$nowInTehran = Jalalian::now($tehran);
echo $nowInTehran->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'); // Output: 1403-08-29 14:30:45

// Using helper function
$date = jdate();
echo $date->toString(); // Output: 1403-08-29 14:30:45
```

### Create Jalalian Instance from Specific Date

Instantiate a Jalalian date with specific year, month, day, and optional time components.

```php
<?php
use Morilog\Jalali\Jalalian;

// Basic date construction
$date = new Jalalian(1397, 6, 24);
echo $date->format('Y-m-d'); // Output: 1397-06-24

// With time components
$dateTime = new Jalalian(1397, 6, 24, 15, 30, 45);
echo $dateTime->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'); // Output: 1397-06-24 15:30:45

// Validation is automatic - throws exception on invalid dates
try {
    $invalid = new Jalalian(1397, 13, 1); // Invalid month
} catch (\Assert\InvalidArgumentException $e) {
    echo "Invalid date: " . $e->getMessage();
}
```

### Create from Timestamp or String

Create Jalalian instances from Unix timestamps or human-readable date strings.

```php
<?php
use Morilog\Jalali\Jalalian;

// From Unix timestamp
$date = Jalalian::forge(1333857600);
echo $date->toString(); // Output: 1391-01-20 04:00:00

// Using helper function with timestamp
$date2 = jdate(1333857600);
echo $date2->format('Y-m-d'); // Output: 1391-01-20

// From human-readable strings (using strtotime)
$lastSunday = Jalalian::forge('last sunday');
echo $lastSunday->format('%B %d، %Y'); // Output: دی 02، 1391

$yesterday = Jalalian::fromDateTime('yesterday');
echo $yesterday->format('Y-m-d'); // Output: 1403-08-28

$today = Jalalian::forge('today');
echo $today->format('%A, %d %B %y'); // Output: جمعه، 23 اسفند 97
```

### Create from Carbon or DateTime

Convert Carbon or DateTime objects to Jalalian dates.

```php
<?php
use Morilog\Jalali\Jalalian;
use Carbon\Carbon;

// From Carbon instance
$carbon = Carbon::parse('2018-04-07 12:00:00');
$jalali = Jalalian::fromCarbon($carbon);
echo $jalali->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'); // Output: 1397-01-18 12:00:00

// From DateTime
$dateTime = new \DateTime('2016-05-08');
$jalali = Jalalian::fromDateTime($dateTime);
echo $jalali->format('Y/m/d'); // Output: 1395/02/19

// From DateTime string
$jalali = Jalalian::fromDateTime('2018-04-07 12:00:00');
echo $jalali->toString(); // Output: 1397-01-18 12:00:00
```

### Create from Jalali Format String

Parse a Jalali date string using a specific format pattern.

```php
<?php
use Morilog\Jalali\Jalalian;

// Parse from formatted string
$jalali = Jalalian::fromFormat('Y-m-d H:i:s', '1397-01-18 12:00:40');
echo $jalali->getYear(); // Output: 1397
echo $jalali->getMonth(); // Output: 1
echo $jalali->getDay(); // Output: 18

// Parse from different format
$jalali2 = Jalalian::fromFormat('Y/m/d', '1395/02/19');
echo $jalali2->format('Y-m-d'); // Output: 1395-02-19

// With timezone
$tehran = new \DateTimeZone('Asia/Tehran');
$jalali3 = Jalalian::fromFormat('Y-m-d', '1397-06-15', $tehran);
echo $jalali3->getTimezone()->getName(); // Output: Asia/Tehran
```

### Add Time Units (Years, Months, Days, Hours, Minutes, Seconds)

Add various time units to a Jalalian date, returning a new immutable instance.

```php
<?php
use Morilog\Jalali\Jalalian;

$date = new Jalalian(1397, 1, 18, 12, 10, 0);

// Add years
$nextYear = $date->addYears(1);
echo $nextYear->format('Y'); // Output: 1398

// Add months
$nextMonth = $date->addMonths(1);
echo $nextMonth->format('m'); // Output: 02

// Add multiple months (handles year overflow)
$future = $date->addMonths(15);
echo $future->format('Y-m'); // Output: 1398-04

// Add days
$tomorrow = $date->addDays(1);
echo $tomorrow->format('d'); // Output: 19

// Add hours
$laterHour = $date->addHours(1);
echo $laterHour->format('H'); // Output: 13

// Add minutes
$laterMinutes = $date->addMinutes(10);
echo $laterMinutes->format('i'); // Output: 20

// Add seconds
$laterSeconds = $date->addSeconds(10);
echo $laterSeconds->format('s'); // Output: 10

// Chain multiple operations
$complex = $date->addYears(2)->addMonths(3)->addDays(15)->addHours(5);
echo $complex->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'); // Output: 1399-05-03 17:10:00
```

### Subtract Time Units

Subtract various time units from a Jalalian date.

```php
<?php
use Morilog\Jalali\Jalalian;

$date = new Jalalian(1397, 1, 18, 12, 10, 0);

// Subtract years
$lastYear = $date->subYears(1);
echo $lastYear->toString(); // Output: 1396-01-18 00:00:00

// Subtract months
$lastMonth = $date->subMonths(1);
echo $lastMonth->toString(); // Output: 1396-12-18 00:00:00

// Subtract days
$tenDaysAgo = $date->subDays(10);
echo $tenDaysAgo->format('d'); // Output: 08

// Subtract hours
$earlierHour = $date->subHours(1);
echo $earlierHour->format('H'); // Output: 11

// Subtract minutes
$earlierMinutes = $date->subMinutes(10);
echo $earlierMinutes->format('i'); // Output: 00

// Subtract seconds
$earlierSeconds = $date->subSeconds(10);
echo $earlierSeconds->format('i:s'); // Output: 09:50

// Complex subtraction
$past = $date->subYears(2)->subMonths(6)->subDays(5);
echo $past->format('Y-m-d'); // Output: 1394-06-13
```

// Persian month and day names
echo CalendarUtils::strftime('%A، %d %B %Y', $timestamp);
// Output: یکشنبه، 19 اردیبهشت 1395

// Short formats
echo CalendarUtils::strftime('%a %d %b %y', $timestamp);
// Output: یک 19 ارد 95

// With time
$timestampWithTime = strtotime('2016-05-08 14:30:45');
echo CalendarUtils::strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S', $timestampWithTime);
// Output: 1395-02-19 14:30:45

// Day of year and week
echo CalendarUtils::strftime('Day %j of year %Y', $timestamp);
// Output: Day 50 of year 1395

// Custom timezone
$tehran = new \DateTimeZone('Asia/Tehran');
echo CalendarUtils::strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S', $timestamp, $tehran);
// Output: 1395-02-19 18:00:45
```

### CalendarUtils: Create DateTime/Carbon from Jalali Format

Parse Jalali date strings into DateTime or Carbon objects.

```php
<?php
use Morilog\Jalali\CalendarUtils;

$jalaliString = '1394/11/25 15:00:00';

// Create DateTime from Jalali format
$dateTime = CalendarUtils::createDatetimeFromFormat('Y/m/d H:i:s', $jalaliString);
echo $dateTime->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'); // Output: 2016-02-14 15:00:00

// Create Carbon from Jalali format
$carbon = CalendarUtils::createCarbonFromFormat('Y/m/d H:i:s', $jalaliString);
echo $carbon->toDateTimeString(); // Output: 2016-02-14 15:00:00

// Now you can use Carbon's full API
$tomorrow = $carbon->addDay();
echo $tomorrow->toDateString(); // Output: 2016-02-15

// Different format patterns
$date1 = CalendarUtils::createCarbonFromFormat('Y-m-d', '1397-03-15');
echo $date1->format('l, F j, Y'); // Output: Wednesday, June 6, 2018

$date2 = CalendarUtils::createDatetimeFromFormat('d/m/Y H:i', '25/11/1394 15:30');
echo $date2->format('Y-m-d H:i'); // Output: 2016-02-14 15:30

// With timezone
$tehran = new \DateTimeZone('Asia/Tehran');
$date3 = CalendarUtils::createCarbonFromFormat('Y-m-d', '1397-01-01', $tehran);
echo $date3->getTimezone()->getName(); // Output: Asia/Tehran
```

### CalendarUtils: Convert Numbers Between Persian and Latin

### CalendarUtils: Configure Month Names

Switch between Iranian and Afghan month name conventions.

```php
<?php
use Morilog\Jalali\CalendarUtils;

// Default: Iranian month names
$date1 = CalendarUtils::strftime('%B', strtotime('2016-05-08'));
echo $date1; // Output: اردیبهشت

// Switch to Afghan month names
CalendarUtils::useAfghanMonthsName();
$date2 = CalendarUtils::strftime('%B', strtotime('2016-05-08'));
echo $date2; // Output: ثور

// Switch back to Iranian
CalendarUtils::useIranianMonthsName();
$date3 = CalendarUtils::strftime('%B', strtotime('2016-05-08'));
echo $date3; // Output: اردیبهشت

// View all Iranian month names
print_r(CalendarUtils::IRANIAN_MONTHS_NAME);
/* Output:
Array (
    [0] => فروردین
    [1] => اردیبهشت
    [2] => خرداد
    [3] => تیر
    [4] => مرداد
    [5] => شهریور
    [6] => مهر
    [7] => آبان
    [8] => آذر
    [9] => دی
    [10] => بهمن
    [11] => اسفند
)
*/

// View all Afghan month names
print_r(CalendarUtils::AFGHAN_MONTHS_NAME);
/* Output:
Array (
    [0] => حمل
    [1] => ثور
    [2] => جوزا
    [3] => سرطان
    [4] => اسد
    [5] => سنبله
    [6] => میزان
    [7] => عقرب
    [8] => قوس
    [9] => جدی
    [10] => دلو
    [11] => حوت
)
*/
```

## Summary and Integration

The morilog/jalali library is essential for any PHP application requiring Jalali calendar support, particularly for Iranian or Afghan markets. Common use cases include e-commerce platforms displaying product release dates, financial applications tracking fiscal year boundaries, content management systems scheduling posts in Persian dates, and HR systems managing employee records with Jalali birth dates. The library excels in handling date-sensitive business logic like calculating holidays, generating reports with Persian dates, and providing localized user interfaces.

Integration is straightforward via Composer (`composer require morilog/jalali:3.*`), with PHP 7.0+ and Carbon as the only requirements. The API is designed for fluency and immutability, meaning all date modification methods return new instances rather than mutating existing objects. This makes the library safe for concurrent operations and reduces bugs. Developers can seamlessly convert between Jalali and Gregorian calendars, leverage Carbon's extensive DateTime API through the `toCarbon()` method, format dates using Persian month/day names, and validate dates with built-in boundary checks. The library's performance is optimized through the Borkowski algorithm, making it suitable for high-throughput applications processing thousands of date conversions per second.
