# chrono-locale

This crate allows to format [chrono](https://github.com/chronotope/chrono) dates with localized months and week days. Backwards comptible fork of [Alex-PK/chrono-locale](https://github.com/Alex-PK/chrono-locale), now works with the latest version of chrono.

## Usage

Include the dependency in `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
chrono = "0.4.56"
chrono_lc = "0.1.3"
```

Import the required modules into `lib.rs` or `main.rs`:

```rs
use chrono::prelude::*;
use chrono_lc::LocaleDate;
```
> **Note**
> You can choose to import just parts of chrono instead of the whole prelude. Please see ['`chrono`'s documentation](https://docs.rs/chrono/).

To format a chrono `Date` or `DateTime` object, you can use the `formatl` method:

```rs
let dt = FixedOffset::east_opt(34200)
 .unwrap()
 .with_ymd_and_hms(2001, 7, 8, 0, 34, 59)
 .unwrap()
 .with_nanosecond(1_026_490_708)
 .unwrap();

println!("{}", dt.formatl("%c", "fr"));
```

> **Warning**
> All of [chrono's formatting placeholders](https://docs.rs/chrono/latest/chrono/format/strftime/index.html) work except for `%3f`, `%6f` and `%9f` (but `%.3f`, `%.6f` and `%.9f` work normally).
