django-humanize − use humanize 3rd-party lib as template filters

Django already offers django.contrib.humanize but that implementation is lacking some features, like humanization of durations.

That lib comes to the rescue allowing you to use template filters backed on the standalone humanize lib.

Install

Add django_humanize to your INSTALLED_APPS setting.

Examples

Template

{% load humanizelib %}

It lasted {{ duration|naturaldelta }}.

View

import datetime
from django.shortcuts import render_

def summary(request):
    context = {'duration': datetime.timedelta(seconds=1000)}
    return render('template.html', context)

Will render as "lasted 16 minutes.".

Template filters

The following template filters are available :

• naturalday
• naturaltime
• ordinal
• intword
• naturaldelta
• intcomma
• apnumber
• fractional
• naturalsize
• naturaldate

Internationalization

Internationalization is supported and matches Django LANGUAGE_CODE setting. If it does not work, maybe, your language code is not supported by the standalone humanize lib. Think about contributing it.
