*/Holiday object
getHolidays() as well as a matching isHoliday() call return either a list or
a single holiday object which consists of:
- {String} date - ISO Date String of (start)-date in local format
- {Date} start - start date of holiday
- {Date} end - end date of holiday
- {String} name - name of holiday using
language(if available) - {String} type - type of holiday
public|bank|school|optional|observance - {Boolean} substitute - (optional) if true holiday substitutes another holiday`
- {String} note - (optional) note`
Dates
The date String represents the start date of the holiday in ISO format without
timezone. This string it intended for information only.
start and end are the start/end date of the holiday within the selected
timezone of the country, state, region.
Name
The name names the holiday in the local language of the selected country,
state, region. The applied language(s) can be requested using getLanguages().
The language can be changed using the setLanguages() method. In case that not
translation is available a fall-back to the next given language will be made.
E.g. local language is "fr", setLanguages('nl') was called. For all holidays
where no dutch translation is available the French version will be used instead.
All holiday names should support an English translation.
Types of holidays
Currently the following type with their meaning are supported
| type | meaning |
|---|---|
| public | public holiday |
| bank | bank holiday, banks and offices are closed |
| school | school holiday, schools are closed |
| optional | majority of people take a day off |
| observance | optional festivity, no paid day off |
Additionally a note field is sometimes available for further clarification.
API
See Holidays API for further information.
Data
All data for the holidays of the different countries is contained in
./data/holidays.json. For changing holiday data edit the appropriate country in ./data/countries.
Any details on structure and
available grammar for holiday attribution is described in
holidays.yaml specification.
Custom builds of holidays.json
If only selected countries are required in data/holidays.json you can add the
following script to your npm scripts section. E.g. for picking just US, Canada,
Mexico do the following:
"scripts": {
"build": "holidays2json --pick US,CA,MX --min"
},The --min switch removes dependencies which are not required for the countries selected. You may not be able to use the full set of rules in case you want to add custom rules.
Alternatively you may use the --omit option.
Manually use
npx holidays2json --pick US,CA,MXNOTE: There are some countries which depend on data of others which might render the file useless. e.g. "GU" requires "US", so try to pick or omit both.
Bundling with webpack
To minimize bundle sizes consider adding the following lines in your webpack config.
Please take a look at ./webpack.config.js. To further reduce size consider custom builds by only selecting required countries.
...
plugins: [
new webpack.IgnorePlugin({
checkResource (resource, context) {
// ---- do not bundle astronomia vsop planet data
if (/\/astronomia\/data$/.test(context)) {
return !['./deltat.js', './vsop87Bearth.js'].includes(resource)
}
// ---- do not bundle moment locales
if (/\/moment\/locale$/.test(context)) {
return true
}
return false
}
})Browser
