django.contrib.humanize


A set of Django template filters useful for adding a “human touch” to data.

To activate these filters, add 'django.contrib.humanize' to your INSTALLED_APPS setting. Once you’ve done that, use{% load humanize %} in a template, and you’ll have access to the following filters.

apnumber

For numbers 1-9, returns the number spelled out. Otherwise, returns the number. This follows Associated Press style.

Examples:

  • 1 becomes one.
  • 2 becomes two.
  • 10 becomes 10.

You can pass in either an integer or a string representation of an integer.

intcomma

Converts an integer to a string containing commas every three digits.

Examples:

  • 4500 becomes 4,500.
  • 45000 becomes 45,000.
  • 450000 becomes 450,000.
  • 4500000 becomes 4,500,000.

Format localization will be respected if enabled, e.g. with the 'de' language:

  • 45000 becomes '45.000'.
  • 450000 becomes '450.000'.

You can pass in either an integer or a string representation of an integer.

intword

Converts a large integer to a friendly text representation. Works best for numbers over 1 million.

Examples:

  • 1000000 becomes 1.0 million.
  • 1200000 becomes 1.2 million.
  • 1200000000 becomes 1.2 billion.

Values up to 10^100 (Googol) are supported.

Format localization will be respected if enabled, e.g. with the 'de' language:

  • 1000000 becomes '1,0 Million'.
  • 1200000 becomes '1,2 Million'.
  • 1200000000 becomes '1,2 Milliarden'.

You can pass in either an integer or a string representation of an integer.

naturalday

For dates that are the current day or within one day, return “today”, “tomorrow” or “yesterday”, as appropriate. Otherwise, format the date using the passed in format string.

Argument: Date formatting string as described in the date tag.

Examples (when ‘today’ is 17 Feb 2007):

  • 16 Feb 2007 becomes yesterday.
  • 17 Feb 2007 becomes today.
  • 18 Feb 2007 becomes tomorrow.
  • Any other day is formatted according to given argument or the DATE_FORMAT setting if no argument is given.

naturaltime

For datetime values, returns a string representing how many seconds, minutes or hours ago it was – falling back to thetimesince format if the value is more than a day old. In case the datetime value is in the future the return value will automatically use an appropriate phrase.

Examples (when ‘now’ is 17 Feb 2007 16:30:00):

  • 17 Feb 2007 16:30:00 becomes now.
  • 17 Feb 2007 16:29:31 becomes 29 seconds ago.
  • 17 Feb 2007 16:29:00 becomes a minute ago.
  • 17 Feb 2007 16:25:35 becomes 4 minutes ago.
  • 17 Feb 2007 15:30:29 becomes an hour ago.
  • 17 Feb 2007 13:31:29 becomes 2 hours ago.
  • 16 Feb 2007 13:31:29 becomes 1 day, 3 hours ago.
  • 17 Feb 2007 16:30:30 becomes 29 seconds from now.
  • 17 Feb 2007 16:31:00 becomes a minute from now.
  • 17 Feb 2007 16:34:35 becomes 4 minutes from now.
  • 17 Feb 2007 16:30:29 becomes an hour from now.
  • 17 Feb 2007 18:31:29 becomes 2 hours from now.
  • 18 Feb 2007 16:31:29 becomes 1 day from now.
  • 26 Feb 2007 18:31:29 becomes 1 week, 2 days from now.

ordinal

Converts an integer to its ordinal as a string.

Examples:

  • 1 becomes 1st.
  • 2 becomes 2nd.
  • 3 becomes 3rd.

You can pass in either an integer or a string representation of an integer.
