Random Arrow Date Manipulation Function

Code introduction


This code defines a function named `random_arrow_operation` that takes a date and a timezone as arguments and then processes this date using random operations from the Arrow library. Possible operations include formatting the date, converting the timezone, shifting the date, adding or subtracting days, getting a datetime object, getting the timestamp, and getting the ordinal of the date.


Technology Stack : The code uses the Arrow library and performs various operations on a date, including formatting, timezone conversion, date shifting, adding or subtracting days, getting a datetime object, getting a timestamp, and getting the ordinal of the date.

Code Type : Function

Code Difficulty :


                
                    
import random
import arrow

def random_arrow_operation(date, timezone):
    # Generate a random operation from the Arrow library
    operations = ['format', 'to', 'shift', 'subtract', 'add', 'datetime', 'timestamp', 'to_ordinal']
    operation = random.choice(operations)
    
    # Perform the operation
    result = arrow.get(date).to(timezone)
    
    if operation == 'format':
        result = result.format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss')
    elif operation == 'to':
        result = result.to('local')
    elif operation == 'shift':
        result = result.shift(days=random.randint(-30, 30))
    elif operation == 'subtract':
        result = result.subtract(days=random.randint(1, 10))
    elif operation == 'add':
        result = result.add(days=random.randint(1, 10))
    elif operation == 'datetime':
        result = result.datetime
    elif operation == 'timestamp':
        result = result.timestamp
    elif operation == 'to_ordinal':
        result = result.to_ordinal()
    
    return result
