The Chinese Calendar

The [Chinese Calendar] is a lunisolar calendar used traditionally in China as well as in other countries particularly in, but not limited to, East Asia. It is often used today to track important cultural events and holidays like the Chinese Lunar New Year.

This type can be used with Date or DateTime to represent dates in the Chinese calendar.

Months

The Chinese calendar is an astronomical calendar which uses the phases of the moon to track months. Each month starts on the date of the new moon as observed from China, meaning that months last 29 or 30 days.

One year in the Chinese calendar is typically 12 lunar months; however, because 12 lunar months does not line up to one solar year, the Chinese calendar will add an intercalary leap month approximately every three years to keep Chinese calendar months in line with the solar year.

Leap months can happen after any month; the month in which a leap month occurs is based on the alignment of months with 24 solar terms into which the solar year is divided.

Year and Era codes

Unlike the Gregorian calendar, the Chinese calendar does not traditionally count years in an infinitely increasing sequence. Instead, 10 “celestial stems” and 12 “terrestrial branches” are combined to form a cycle of year names which repeats every 60 years. However, for the purposes of calendar calculations and conversions, this module counts Chinese years in an infinite system similar to ISO, with year 1 in the calendar corresponding to the inception of the calendar, marked as 2637 BCE (ISO: -2636), and negative years marking Chinese years before February 15, 2637 BCE.

Because the Chinese calendar does not traditionally count years, era codes are not used in this calendar; this crate supports a single era code “chinese”.

This Chinese calendar implementation also supports a related ISO year, which marks the ISO year in which a Chinese year begins, and a cyclic year corresponding to the year in the 60 year cycle as described above.

Month codes

This calendar is a lunisolar calendar. It supports regular month codes "M01" - "M12" as well as leap month codes "M01L" - "M12L".

This calendar is currently in a preview state: formatting for this calendar is not going to be perfect.

Trait Implementations

impl Calendar for Chinese

fn debug_name(&self) -> &'static str

Obtain a name for the calendar for debug printing

fn year(&self, date: &<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner) -> FormattableYear

The calendar-specific year represented by date

fn month(&self, date: &<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner) -> FormattableMonth

The calendar-specific month code represented by date; since the Chinese calendar has leap months, an “L” is appended to the month code for leap months. For example, in a year where an intercalary month is added after the second month, the month codes for ordinal months 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 would be “M01”, “M02”, “M02L”, “M03”, “M04”.

fn day_of_month(&self, date: &<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner) -> DayOfMonth

The calendar-specific day-of-month represented by date

fn day_of_year_info( &self, date: &<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner ) -> DayOfYearInfo

Information of the day of the year

fn any_calendar_kind(&self) -> Option<AnyCalendarKind>

The AnyCalendarKind corresponding to this calendar

type DateInner = ChineseDateInner

The internal type used to represent dates

fn date_from_codes( &self, era: Era, year: i32, month_code: MonthCode, day: u8 ) -> Result<<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner, CalendarError>

Construct a date from era/month codes and fields

fn date_from_iso(&self, iso: Date<Iso>) -> <Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner

Construct the date from an ISO date

fn date_to_iso(&self, date: &<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner) -> Date<Iso>

Obtain an ISO date from this date

fn days_in_year(&self, date: &<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner) -> u16

Count the number of days in a given year, specified by providing a date from that year

fn days_in_month(&self, date: &<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner) -> u8

Count the number of days in a given month, specified by providing a date from that year/month

fn is_in_leap_year(&self, date: &<Chinese as Calendar>::DateInner) -> bool
