This is the most extensive up-to-date CLDR data you will find on "CPAN". It is provided as SQLite data with a great many number of methods to access those data and make it easy for you to retrieve them. Thanks to SQLite, it is very fast. SQLite version 3.6.19 (2009-10-14) or higher is required, as this module relies on foreign keys, which were not fully supported before. If the version is anterior, the module will return an error upon object instantiation. It is designed to be extensive in the scope of data that can be accessed, while at the same time, memory-friendly. Access to each method returns data from the SQLite database on a need-basis. All the data in this SQLite database are sourced directly and exclusively from the Unicode official CLDR data using a perl script available in this distribution under the "scripts" directory. Use "perldoc scripts/create_database.pl" or "scripts/create_database.pl --man" to access its POD documentation. The "CLDR" data includes, by design, outdated ones, such as outdated currencies, country codes, or timezones, that "CLDR" keeps in order to ensure consistency and reliability. For example, for timezones, the Unicode "LDML" (Locale Data Markup Language) states that "CLDR contains locale data using a time zone ID from the tz database as the key, stability of the IDs is critical." and "Not all TZDB links are in CLDR aliases. CLDR purposefully does not exactly match the Link structure in the TZDB.". See In "CLDR" parlance, a language is a 2 to 3-characters identifier, whereas a "locale" includes more information, such as a "language", a "script", a "territory", a "variant", and possibly much more information. See for that the Locale::Unicode module and the LDML specifications Those locales also inherit data from their respective parents. For example, "sr-Cyrl-ME" would have the following inheritance tree: "sr-ME", "sr", and "und" You can build a "locale" inheritance tree using make_inheritance_tree, and I recommend Locale::Unicode to build, parse and manipulate locales. Also, in those "CLDR" data, there is not always a one-to-one match across all territories (countries) or languages, meaning that some territories or languages have more complete "CLDR" data than others. "CLDR" also uses some default values to avoid repetitions. Those default values are stored in the "World" territory with code 001 and special "language" code "und" (a.k.a. "unknown" also referred as "root") Please note that the SQLite database is built to not be case sensitive in line with the "LDML" specifications. This module documentation is not meant to be a replacement for the Unicode "LDML" ("Locale Data Markup Language") documentation, so please make sure to read the LDML documentation and the CLDR specifications . The data available from the "CLDR" via this module includes: * ISO 4217 currencies, including BCP47 currencies, their localised names and their associated country historical usage. * Calendar IDs with description in English * Calendar eras, for some calendar systems, such as the "japanese" one. * Territories (countries, or world regions) This includes, for countries, additional information such as "GDP" (Gross Domestic Product), literacy percentage, population size, languages spoken, possible other ISO 3166 codes contained by this territory (essentially world regions identified as 3-digits code, or special codes like "EU" or "UN"), the official currency, a list of calendar IDs (not always available for all territories), the first day of the week, the first and last day of the week-end * Localised territory names This provides the name of a "territory" for a given "locale" * Territories currencies history * All known locales This includes the "locale" status, which may be "regular", "deprecated", "special", "reserved", "private_use", or "unknown" * Localised names of locales This provides the name of a "locale" for a given "locale" * All known languages This may include its associated "scripts" and "territories", and its "parent" language, if any. Its status may be "regular", "deprecated", "special", "reserved", "private_use", or "unknown" * All known scripts This includes possibly the "script" ID, its rank, a sample character, line break letter, whether it is right-to-left direction, if it has casing, if it requires shapping, its density, possibly its origin territory and its likely locale. * Localised scripts This provides the name of a "script" for a given "locale" * All known variants This includes the "variant" status, which may be "regular", "deprecated", "special", "reserved", "private_use", or "unknown" * Localised variants This provides the name of a "variant" for a given "locale" * Time formats This includes the associated "territory" and "locale", the default time format, such as "H" and the time allowed. * Language population This provides information for a given "territory" and "locale" about the percentage of the population using that "locale", their literacy percentage, and percentage of the population using in writing the "locale", and its official status, which may be "official", "de_facto_official", and "official_regional" * Likely subtags This provides for a given "locale" the likely target locale to expand to. * Aliases This provides aliases for "languages", "scripts", "territories", "subdivisions", "variants", and "timezones" * Time zones This provides IANA Olson time zones, but also some other time zones, such as "Etc/GMT". The CLDR data also includes former time zones for consistency and stability. The information includes possibly the associated "territory", the "region" such as "America" or "Europe", the time zone ID, such as "japa", a meta zone, such as "Europe_Central", a BCP47 time zone ID, and a boolean value whether the time zone is a "golden" time zone or not. * Time zone information This provides historical time zone information, such as when it started and ended. * Subdivisions Subdivisions are parts of a territory, such as a province like in Canada, a department like in France or a prefecture like in Japan.

The desired "locale" can be a perl regular expression. * Unit constants Some constant values declared for certain measurement units. * Unit quantities Defines the quantity type for certain units. * Unit conversions Define a list of unit conversion from one unit to another. * Unit preferences by territories Defines what units are preferred by territory. * Unit aliases Provides some aliases for otherwise outdated units. * Localised units Localised unit formatting. * Locale Number symbols Value used for each locale for "approximately", "currency_decimal", "currency_group", "decimal", "exponential", "group", "infinity", "list", "minus", "nan", "per_mille", "percent", "plus", "superscript", and "time_separator" Not every "locale" has a value for each of those properties though. * Locale number formatting Localised formatting for currency or decimal numbers. If you need a more granular access to the data, feel free to access the SQL data directly. You can retrieve a database handler, as an instance of the DBI API, or you can instantiate a connection yourself using the database file information CONSTRUCTOR new This takes some hash or hash reference of options, instantiates a new Locale::Unicode::Data object, connects to the SQLite database file specified, or the default one, and returns the newly instantiated object. If an error occurred, an error object is created and "undef" is returned in scalar context, or an empty list in list context. Supported options are as follows. Each option can be later accessed or modified by their associated method. * "datafile" The file path to the SQLite database file. If this option is not provided, the SQLite database file used will be the one set in the global variable $DB_FILE * "decode_sql_arrays" Boolean value to enable or disable automatic decoding of SQL arrays into perl arrays using JSON::XS This is enabled by default. If you want to retrieve a lot of data and do not need access to those arrays, you should deactivate decoding to improve speed. If an error occurs, an exception object is set and "undef" is returned in scalar context, or an empty list in list context. The exception object can then be retrieved using error, such as: my $cldr = Locale::Unicode::Data->new( $somthing_bad ) || die( Locale::Unicode::Data->error ); METHODS alias my $ref = $cldr->alias( alias => 'i_klingon', type => 'language', ); This would return an hash reference containing: { alias_id => 5, alias => 'i_klingon', replacement => ["tlh"], reason => 'deprecated', type => 'language', comment => 'Klingon', } Returns the "language", "script", "territory", "subdivision", "variant", or "zone" aliases stored in table aliases for a given "alias" and an alias "type".

The meaning of the fields are as follows: * "day_period_id" A unique incremental value automatically generated by SQLite. * "locale" A "locale", such as "en" or "ja-JP" as can be found in table locales * "day_period" A string representing a day period. Known values are: "afternoon1", "afternoon2", "am", "evening1", "evening2", "midnight", "morning1", "morning2", "night1", "night2", "noon", "pm" * "start" A time from which this day period starts.

Valid tokens are: "afternoon1", "afternoon2", "am", "evening1", "evening2", "midnight", "morning1", "morning2", "night1", "night2", "noon", "pm" * "locale" A "locale", such as "en" or "ja-JP" as can be found in table locales decode_sql_arrays my $bool = $cldr->decode_sql_arrays; $cldr->decode_sql_arrays(0); # off $cldr->decode_sql_arrays(1); # on Sets or gets the boolean value used to specify whether you want this API to automatically decode SQL arrays into perl arrays using JSON::XS This is set to true by default, upon object instantiation. extend_timezones_cities my $bool = $cldr->extend_timezones_cities; $cldr->extend_timezones_cities(0); # off $cldr->extend_timezones_cities(1); # on Sets or gets the boolean value used to specify whether you want to use the time zones cities extended data, if any were added, or not. To add the time zones cities extended data, see the Unicode CLDR SQLite database script option "--extended-timezones-cities" Normally, this SQLite database comes by default with an extended set of time zones cities data for 421 time zones and their main city across 88 locales, courtesy of the GeoNames database, and online work the author of this distribution has performed. See also the method timezone_city and timezones_cities This is set to true by default, upon object instantiation. error Used as a mutator, this sets and exception object and returns an "Locale::Unicode::NullObject" in object context (such as when chaining), or "undef" in scalar context, or an empty list in list context. The "Locale::Unicode::NullObject" class prevents the perl error of "Can't call method "%s" on an undefined value" (see perldiag). Upon the last method chained, "undef" is returned in scalar context or an empty list in list context. For example: my $locale = Locale::Unicode->new( 'ja' ); $locale->translation( 'my-software' )->transform_locale( $bad_value )->tz( 'jptyo' ) || die( $locale->error ); In this example, "jptyo" will never be set, because "transform_locale" triggered an exception that returned an "Locale::Unicode::NullObject" object catching all further method calls, but eventually we get the error and die. fatal $cldr->fatal(1); # Enable fatal exceptions $cldr->fatal(0); # Disable fatal exceptions my $bool = $cldr->fatal; Sets or get the boolean value, whether to die upon exception, or not. If set to true, then instead of setting an exception object, this module will die with an exception object. You can catch the exception object then after using "try". For example: use v.5.34; # to be able to use try-catch blocks in perl use experimental 'try'; no warnings 'experimental'; try { my $cldr = Locale::Unicode::Data->new( fatal => 1 ); # Forgot the 'width': my $str = $cldr->timezone_names( timezone => 'Asia/Tokyo', locale => 'en' ); } catch( $e ) { say "Error occurred: ", $e->message; # Error occurred: No value for width was provided. } interval_formats my $ref = $cldr->interval_formats( locale => 'en', calendar => 'gregorian', ); This would return something like: { Bh => [qw( B h )], Bhm => [qw( B h m )], d => ["d"], default => ["default"], Gy => [qw( G y )], GyM => [qw( G M y )], GyMd => [qw( d G M y )], GyMEd => [qw( d G M y )], GyMMM => [qw( G M y )], GyMMMd => [qw( d G M y )], GyMMMEd => [qw( d G M y )], H => ["H"], h => [qw( a h )], hm => [qw( a h m )], Hm => [qw( H m )], hmv => [qw( a h m )], Hmv => [qw( H m )], Hv => ["H"], hv => [qw( a h )], M => ["M"], Md => [qw( d M )], MEd => [qw( d M )], MMM => ["M"], MMMd => [qw( d M )], MMMEd => [qw( d M )], y => ["y"], yM => [qw( M y )], yMd => [qw( d M y )], yMEd => [qw( d M y )], yMMM => [qw( M y )], yMMMd => [qw( d M y )], yMMMEd => [qw( d M y )], yMMMM => [qw( M y )], } This returns an hash reference of interval format ID with their associated greatest difference token for the given "locale" ID and "calendar" ID. The "default" interval format pattern is something like "{0} – {1}", but this changes depending on the "locale" and is not always available. "{0}" is the placeholder for the first datetime and "{1}" is the placeholder for the second one. l10n Returns all localised information for certain type of data as an array reference of hash reference.

For example: * "hi-IN-u-nu-native" Explicitly specifying the native digits for numeric formatting in Hindi language. * "zh-u-nu-finance" Explicitly specifying the appropriate financial numerals in Chinese language. * "ta-u-nu-traditio" Explicitly specifying the traditional Tamil numerals in Tamil language. * "ar-u-nu-latn" Explicitly specifying the western digits 0-9 in Arabic language. Returns an hash reference of a given "locale" number systems available from the table locale_number_systems. TLDR; if "number_system" and "native" are the same, then it is ok to also use "latn" as numbering system. When "traditional" is not available, use "native". When "finance" is not available, use the default "number_system" The meaning of the fields are as follows: * "locale_num_sys_id" A unique incremental value automatically generated by SQLite. * "locale" A "locale", such as "en" or "ja-JP" as can be found in table locales * "number_system" A string representing a number system as can be found in the table number_systems, and "used for presentation of numeric quantities in the given locale" (LDML specifications ) In LDML specifications , this is named "default", but "default" is a reserved keyword in SQL terminology. * "native" Quoting from the LDML specifications : "Defines the numbering system used for the native digits, usually defined as a part of the script used to write the language. The "native" numbering system can only be a numeric positional decimal-digit numbering system, using digits with General_Category=Decimal_Number. Note: In locales where the "native" numbering system is the default, it is assumed that the numbering system "latn" (Western digits 0-9) is always acceptable, and can be selected using the "-nu" keyword as part of a Unicode locale identifier." * "traditional" Quoting from the LDML specifications : "Defines the "traditional" numerals for a locale. This numbering system may be numeric or algorithmic. If the "traditional" numbering system is not defined, applications should use the "native" numbering system as a fallback." * "finance" Quoting from the LDML specifications : "Defines the numbering system used for financial quantities. This numbering system may be numeric or algorithmic. This is often used for ideographic languages such as Chinese, where it would be easy to alter an amount represented in the default numbering system simply by adding additional strokes. If the financial numbering system is not specified, applications should use the default numbering system as a fallback." locale_number_systems my $all = $cldr->locale_number_systems; Returns all locales numbering systems information from table locale_number_systems as an array reference of hash reference. No additional parameter is needed. make_inheritance_tree This takes a "locale", such as "ja" or "ja-JP", or "es-ES-valencia" and it will return an array reference of inheritance tree of locales . This means the provided "locale"'s parent, its grand-parent, etc until it reaches the "root", which, under the "LDML" specifications is defined by "und" For example: # Japanese my $tree = $cldr->make_inheritance_tree( 'ja-JP' ); produces: ['ja-JP', 'ja', 'und'] However, there are exceptions and the path is not always linear. For example: # Portugese in France my $tree = $cldr->make_inheritance_tree( 'pt-FR' ); produces: ['pt-FR', 'pt-PT', 'pt', 'und'] Why? Because the "CLDR" (Common Locale Data Repository) specifies a special parent for locale "pt-FR". Those exceptions are defined in common/supplemental/supplementalData.xml with xpath /supplementalData/parentLocales/parentLocale Another example: # Traditional Chinese my $tree = $cldr->make_inheritance_tree( 'yue-Hant' ); Normally, this parent would be "yue", which would lead to simplified Chinese, which would not be appropriate, so instead the "CLDR" provides "zh-Hant" ['yue-Hant', 'zh-Hant', 'und'] If an error occurred, it will set an error object and return "undef" in scalar context and an empty list in list context. See the LDML specifications about inheritance and about locale inheritance and matching for more information. metazone my $ref = $cldr->metazone( metazone => 'Japan' ); # Japan Standard Time # Returns an hash reference like this: { metazone_id => 98, metazone => 'Japan', territories => ["001"], timezones => ["Asia/Tokyo"], } Returns an hash reference of a "metazone" information from the table metazones for a given "metazone" ID. Quoting from the LDML specifications : "A metazone is a grouping of one or more internal TZIDs that share a common display name in current customary usage, or that have shared a common display name during some particular time period. For example, the zones Europe/Paris, Europe/Andorra, Europe/Tirane, Europe/Vienna, Europe/Sarajevo, Europe/Brussels, Europe/Zurich, Europe/Prague, Europe/Berlin, and so on are often simply designated Central European Time (or translated equivalent)." Also: "Metazones are used with the 'z', 'zzzz', 'v', and 'vvvv' date time pattern characters, and not with the 'Z', 'ZZZZ', 'VVVV' and other pattern characters for time zone formatting." The meaning of the fields are as follows: * "metazone_id" A unique incremental value automatically generated by SQLite. * "metazone" A "metazone" ID as defined by the LDML specifications * "territory" An array of "territory" IDs as can be found in the table territories, and that are associated with this "metazone". * "timezones" An array of "timezone" IDs as can be found in the table timezones, and that are associated with this "metazone". metazones my $all = $cldr->metazones; Returns all metazones information from table metazones as an array reference of hash reference.

Known values are: "undef" and "secondary" variants_l10n my $all = $cldr->variants_l10n; my $all = $cldr->variants_l10n( locale => 'en' ); my $all = $cldr->variants_l10n( locale => 'en', alt => undef, ); Returns all the variants localised information as an array reference of hash reference from the table variants_l10n week_preference my $ref = $cldr->week_preference( locale => 'ja' ); # Returns an hash reference like this: { week_pref_id => 32, locale => 'ja', ordering => ["weekOfDate", "weekOfMonth"], } Returns an hash reference of a week preference information from the table week_preferences for a given "locale" ID. The meaning of the fields are as follows: * "week_pref_id" A unique incremental value automatically generated by SQLite. * "locale" A "locale", such as "en" or "ja-JP" as can be found in table locales * "ordering" This is "an ordered list of the preferred types of week designations for that"[1 ] It is provided as an array of tokens. Known values in the array are: * "weekOfYear" * "weekOfMonth" * "weekOfDate" * "weekOfInterval" See the LDML specifications for more information. week_preferences my $all = $cldr->week_preferences; Returns all the week preferences information as an array reference of hash reference from the table week_preferences Format Patterns The following is taken directly from the Unicode LDML specifications and placed here for your convenience. Examples: * "yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' HH:mm:ss zzz" 1996.07.10 AD at 15:08:56 PDT * "EEE, MMM d, ''yy" Wed, July 10, '96 * "h:mm a" 12:08 PM * "hh 'o''clock' a, zzzz" 12 o'clock PM, Pacific Daylight Time * "K:mm a, z" 0:00 PM, PST * "yyyyy.MMMM.dd GGG hh:mm aaa" 01996.July.10 AD 12:08 PM See the date field symbols table for more details. * "a" period AM, PM May be upper or lowercase depending on the locale and other options. The wide form may be the same as the short form if the “real” long form (eg ante meridiem) is not customarily used. The narrow form must be unique, unlike some other fields. See also Parsing Dates and Times. Examples: * "a..aaa" (Abbreviated) am. [e.g. 12 am.] * "aaaa" (Wide) am. [e.g. 12 am.] * "aaaaa" (Narrow) a [e.g. 12a] * "A" second Milliseconds in day (numeric). This field behaves exactly like a composite of all time-related fields, not including the zone fields. As such, it also reflects discontinuities of those fields on DST transition days. On a day of DST onset, it will jump forward. On a day of DST cessation, it will jump backward. This reflects the fact that it must be combined with the offset field to obtain a unique local time value. The field length specifies the minimum number of digits, with zero-padding as necessary. Examples: * "A+" 69540000 * "b" period am, pm, noon, midnight May be upper or lowercase depending on the locale and other options. If the locale doesn't have the notion of a unique "noon" = 12:00, then the PM form may be substituted. Similarly for "midnight" = 00:00 and the AM form. The narrow form must be unique, unlike some other fields. Examples: * "b..bbb" (Abbreviated) mid. [e.g. 12 mid.] * "bbbb" (Wide) midnight [e.g. 12 midnight] * "bbbbb" (Narrow) md [e.g. 12 md] * "B" period flexible day periods May be upper or lowercase depending on the locale and other options. Often there is only one width that is customarily used. Examples: * "B..BBB" (Abbreviated) at night [e.g. 3:00 at night] * "BBBB" (Wide) at night [e.g. 3:00 at night] * "BBBBB" (Narrow) at night [e.g. 3:00 at night] * "c" week day Stand-Alone local day of week number/name. Examples: * "c..cc" 2 Numeric: 1 digit * "ccc" (Abbreviated) Tue * "cccc" (Wide) Tuesday * "ccccc" (Narrow) T * "cccccc" (Short) Tu * "C" Input skeleton symbol It must not occur in pattern or skeleton data. Instead, it is reserved for use in skeletons passed to APIs doing flexible date pattern generation. In such a context, like 'j', it requests the preferred hour format for the locale. However, unlike 'j', it can also select formats such as hb or hB, since it is based not on the preferred attribute of the hours element in supplemental data, but instead on the first element of the allowed attribute (which is an ordered preferrence list). For example, with "Cmm", 18:00 could appear as “6:00 in the afternoon”. Example: * "C" 8 8 (morning) Numeric hour (minimum digits), abbreviated dayPeriod if used * "CC" 08 08 (morning) Numeric hour (2 digits, zero pad if needed), abbreviated dayPeriod if used * "CCC" 8 8 in the morning Numeric hour (minimum digits), wide dayPeriod if used * "CCCC" 08 08 in the morning Numeric hour (2 digits, zero pad if needed), wide dayPeriod if used * "CCCCC" 8 8 (morn.) Numeric hour (minimum digits), narrow dayPeriod if used * "CCCCCC" 08 08 (morn.) Numeric hour (2 digits, zero pad if needed), narrow dayPeriod if used * "d" day of month Day of month (numeric). Example: * "d" 1 Numeric: minimum digits * "dd" 01 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "D" day of year The field length specifies the minimum number of digits, with zero-padding as necessary. Example: * "D...DDD" day 345 Day of year (numeric). * "e" week day Local day of week number/name, format style. Same as E except adds a numeric value that will depend on the local starting day of the week. For this example, Monday is the first day of the week. Example: * "e" 2 Numeric: 1 digit * "ee" 02 Numeric: 2 digits + zero pad * "eee" (Abbreviated) Tue * "eeee" (Wide) Tuesday * "eeeee" (Narrow) T * "eeeeee" (Short) Tu * "E" week day Day of week name, format style. Example: * "E..EEE" (Abbreviated) Tue * "EEEE" (Wide) Tuesday * "EEEEE" (Narrow) T * "EEEEEE" (Short) Tu * "F" day Day of Week in Month (numeric). The example is for the 2nd Wed in July Example: * "F" 2 * "g" Modified Julian day (numeric). This is different from the conventional Julian day number in two regards. First, it demarcates days at local zone midnight, rather than noon GMT. Second, it is a local number; that is, it depends on the local time zone. It can be thought of as a single number that encompasses all the date-related fields. The field length specifies the minimum number of digits, with zero-padding as necessary. Example: * "g+" 2451334 * "G" era Era name. Example: * "G..GGG" (Abbreviated) AD [variant: CE] * "GGGG" (Wide) Anno Domini [variant: Common Era] * "GGGGG" (Narrow) A * "h" hour Hour [1-12]. When used in skeleton data or in a skeleton passed in an API for flexible date pattern generation, it should match the 12-hour-cycle format preferred by the locale (h or K); it should not match a 24-hour-cycle format (H or k). Example: * "h" 1, 12 Numeric: minimum digits * "hh" 01, 12 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "H" hour Hour [0-23]. When used in skeleton data or in a skeleton passed in an API for flexible date pattern generation, it should match the 24-hour-cycle format preferred by the locale (H or k); it should not match a 12-hour-cycle format (h or K). Example: * "H" 0, 23 Numeric: minimum digits * "HH" 00, 23 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "j" Input skeleton symbol It must not occur in pattern or skeleton data. Instead, it is reserved for use in skeletons passed to APIs doing flexible date pattern generation. In such a context, it requests the preferred hour format for the locale (h, H, K, or k), as determined by the preferred attribute of the hours element in supplemental data. In the implementation of such an API, 'j' must be replaced by h, H, K, or k before beginning a match against availableFormats data. Note that use of 'j' in a skeleton passed to an API is the only way to have a skeleton request a locale's preferred time cycle type (12-hour or 24-hour). Example: * "j" 8 "8 AM" 13 "1 PM" Numeric hour (minimum digits), abbreviated dayPeriod if used * "jj" 08 "08 AM" 13 "01 PM" Numeric hour (2 digits, zero pad if needed), abbreviated dayPeriod if used * "jjj" 8 "8 A.M." 13 "1 P.M." Numeric hour (minimum digits), wide dayPeriod if used * "jjjj" 08 "08 A.M." 13 "01 P.M." Numeric hour (2 digits, zero pad if needed), wide dayPeriod if used * "jjjjj" 8 "8a" 13 "1p" Numeric hour (minimum digits), narrow dayPeriod if used * "jjjjjj" 08 "08a" 13 "01p" Numeric hour (2 digits, zero pad if needed), narrow dayPeriod if used * "J" Input skeleton symbol It must not occur in pattern or skeleton data. Instead, it is reserved for use in skeletons passed to APIs doing flexible date pattern generation. In such a context, like 'j', it requests the preferred hour format for the locale (h, H, K, or k), as determined by the preferred attribute of the hours element in supplemental data. However, unlike 'j', it requests no dayPeriod marker such as “am/pm” (it is typically used where there is enough context that that is not necessary). For example, with "jmm", 18:00 could appear as “6:00 PM”, while with "Jmm", it would appear as “6:00” (no PM). Example: * "J" 8 8 Numeric hour (minimum digits) * "JJ" 08 08 Numeric hour (2 digits, zero pad if needed) * "k" hour Hour [1-24]. When used in a skeleton, only matches k or H, see above. Example: * "k" 1, 24 Numeric: minimum digits * "kk" 01, 24 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "K" hour Hour [0-11]. When used in a skeleton, only matches K or h, see above. Example: * "K" 0, 11 Numeric: minimum digits * "KK" 00, 11 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "L" month Stand-Alone month number/name: For use when the month is displayed by itself, and in any other date pattern (e.g. just month and year, e.g. "LLLL y") that shares the same form of the month name. For month names, this is typically the nominative form. See discussion of month element. See also the symbol "M" for month. Example: * "L" 9, 12 Numeric: minimum digits * "LL" 09, 12 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "LLL" (Abbreviated) Sep * "LLLL" (Wide) September * "LLLLL" (Narrow) S * "M" month Numeric: minimum digits Format style month number/name: The format style name is an additional form of the month name (besides the stand-alone style) that can be used in contexts where it is different than the stand-alone form. For example, depending on the language, patterns that combine month with day-of month (e.g. "d MMMM") may require the month to be in genitive form. See discussion of month element. If a separate form is not needed, the format and stand-alone forms can be the same. See also "L" Example: * "M" 9, 12 * "MM" 09, 12 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "MMM" (Abbreviated) Sep * "MMMM" (Wide) September * "MMMMM" (Narrow) S * "m" minute Minute (numeric). Truncated, not rounded. Examples: * "m" 8, 59 Numeric: minimum digits * "mm" 08, 59 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "O" zone Examples: * "O" "GMT-8" The short localized GMT format. * "OOOO" "GMT-08:00" The long localized GMT format. * "q" quarter Stand-Alone Quarter number/name. Examples: * "q" 2 Numeric: 1 digit * "qq" 02 Numeric: 2 digits + zero pad * "qqq" (Abbreviated) "Q2" * "qqqq" (Wide) "2nd quarter" * "qqqqq" (Narrow) 2 * "Q" quarter Quarter number/name. Examples: * "Q" 2 Numeric: 1 digit * "QQ" 02 Numeric: 2 digits + zero pad * "QQQ" (Abbreviated) "Q2" * "QQQQ" (Wide) "2nd quarter" * "QQQQQ" (Narrow) 2 * "r" Related Gregorian year (numeric). For non-Gregorian calendars, this corresponds to the extended Gregorian year in which the calendar’s year begins. Related Gregorian years are often displayed, for example, when formatting dates in the Japanese calendar — e.g. “2012(平成24)年1月15日” — or in the Chinese calendar — e.g. “2012壬辰年腊月初四”. The related Gregorian year is usually displayed using the "latn" numbering system, regardless of what numbering systems may be used for other parts of the formatted date. If the calendar’s year is linked to the solar year (perhaps using leap months), then for that calendar the ‘r’ year will always be at a fixed offset from the ‘u’ year. For the Gregorian calendar, the ‘r’ year is the same as the ‘u’ year. For ‘r’, all field lengths specify a minimum number of digits; there is no special interpretation for “rr”. Example: * "r+" 2017 * "s" second Second (numeric). Truncated, not rounded. Example: * "s" 8, 12 Numeric: minimum digits * "ss" 08, 12 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "S" second Fractional Second (numeric). Truncates, like other numeric time fields, but in this case to the number of digits specified by the field length. (Example shows display using pattern SSSS for seconds value 12.34567) Example: * "S+" 3456 * "u" Extended year (numeric). This is a single number designating the year of this calendar system, encompassing all supra-year fields. For example, for the Julian calendar system, year numbers are positive, with an era of BCE or CE. An extended year value for the Julian calendar system assigns positive values to CE years and negative values to BCE years, with 1 BCE being year 0. For ‘u’, all field lengths specify a minimum number of digits; there is no special interpretation for “uu”. Example: * "u+" 4601 * "U" Cyclic year name. Calendars such as the Chinese lunar calendar (and related calendars) and the Hindu calendars use 60-year cycles of year names. If the calendar does not provide cyclic year name data, or if the year value to be formatted is out of the range of years for which cyclic name data is provided, then numeric formatting is used (behaves like 'y'). Currently the data only provides abbreviated names, which will be used for all requested name widths. Example: * "U..UUU" (Abbreviated) "甲子" * "UUUU" (Wide) "甲子" [for now] * "UUUUU" (Narrow) "甲子" [for now] * "v" zone Example: * "v" "PT" The short generic non-location format Where that is unavailable, falls back to the generic location format ("VVVV"), then the short localized GMT format as the final fallback. * "vvvv" "Pacific Time" The long generic non-location format. Where that is unavailable, falls back to generic location format ("VVVV"). * "V" zone Example: * "V" "uslax" The short time zone ID. Where that is unavailable, the special short time zone ID unk (Unknown Zone) is used. Note: This specifier was originally used for a variant of the short specific non-location format, but it was deprecated in the later version of this specification. In CLDR 23, the definition of the specifier was changed to designate a short time zone ID. * "VV" "America/Los_Angeles" The long time zone ID. * "VVV" "Los Angeles" The exemplar city (location) for the time zone. Where that is unavailable, the localized exemplar city name for the special zone Etc/Unknown is used as the fallback (for example, "Unknown City"). * "VVVV" "Los Angeles Time" The generic location format. Where that is unavailable, falls back to the long localized GMT format ("OOOO"; Note: Fallback is only necessary with a GMT-style Time Zone ID, like Etc/GMT-830.) This is especially useful when presenting possible timezone choices for user selection, since the naming is more uniform than the "v" format. * "w" Week of Year (numeric). When used in a pattern with year, use ‘Y’ for the year field instead of ‘y’. Example: * "w" 8, 27 Numeric: minimum digits * "ww" 08, 27 Numeric: 2 digits, zero pad if needed * "W" Week of Month (numeric) Example: * "W" 3 Numeric: 1 digit * "x" zone Example: * "x" -08 +0530 +00 The ISO8601 basic format with hours field and optional minutes field. (The same as X, minus "Z".) * "xx" -0800 +0000 The ISO8601 basic format with hours and minutes fields. (The same as XX, minus "Z".) * "xxx" "-08:00" "+00:00" The ISO8601 extended format with hours and minutes fields. (The same as XXX, minus "Z".) * "xxxx" -0800 -075258 +0000 The ISO8601 basic format with hours, minutes and optional seconds fields. (The same as XXXX, minus "Z".) Note: The seconds field is not supported by the ISO8601 specification. * "xxxxx" "-08:00" "-07:52:58" "+00:00" The ISO8601 extended format with hours, minutes and optional seconds fields. (The same as XXXXX, minus "Z".) Note: The seconds field is not supported by the ISO8601 specification. * "X" zone Example: * "X" -08 +0530 "Z" The ISO8601 basic format with hours field and optional minutes field. The ISO8601 UTC indicator "Z" is used when local time offset is 0. (The same as x, plus "Z".) * "XX" -0800 "Z" The ISO8601 basic format with hours and minutes fields. The ISO8601 UTC indicator "Z" is used when local time offset is 0. (The same as xx, plus "Z".) * "XXX" "-08:00" "Z" The ISO8601 extended format with hours and minutes fields. The ISO8601 UTC indicator "Z" is used when local time offset is 0. (The same as xxx, plus "Z".) * "XXXX" -0800 -075258 "Z" The ISO8601 basic format with hours, minutes and optional seconds fields. The ISO8601 UTC indicator "Z" is used when local time offset is 0. (The same as xxxx, plus "Z".) Note: The seconds field is not supported by the ISO8601 specification. * "XXXXX" "-08:00" "-07:52:58" "Z" The ISO8601 extended format with hours, minutes and optional seconds fields. The ISO8601 UTC indicator "Z" is used when local time offset is 0. (The same as xxxxx, plus "Z".) Note: The seconds field is not supported by the ISO8601 specification. * "y" Calendar year (numeric). In most cases the length of the y field specifies the minimum number of digits to display, zero-padded as necessary; more digits will be displayed if needed to show the full year. However, “yy” requests just the two low-order digits of the year, zero-padded as necessary. For most use cases, “y” or “yy” should be adequate. Example: * "y" 2, 20, 201, 2017, 20173 * "yy" 02, 20, 01, 17, 73 * "yyy" 002, 020, 201, 2017, 20173 * "yyyy" 0002, 0020, 0201, 2017, 20173 * "yyyyy+" ... * "Y" Year in “Week of Year” based calendars in which the year transition occurs on a week boundary; may differ from calendar year ‘y’ near a year transition. This numeric year designation is used in conjunction with pattern character ‘w’ in the ISO year-week calendar as defined by ISO 8601, but can be used in non-Gregorian based calendar systems where week date processing is desired. The field length is interpreted in the same was as for ‘y’; that is, “yy” specifies use of the two low-order year digits, while any other field length specifies a minimum number of digits to display. Example: * "Y" 2, 20, 201, 2017, 20173 * "YY" 02, 20, 01, 17, 73 * "YYY" 002, 020, 201, 2017, 20173 * "YYYY" 0002, 0020, 0201, 2017, 20173 * "YYYYY+" ... * "z" zone Examples: * "z..zzz" "PDT" The short specific non-location format. Where that is unavailable, falls back to the short localized GMT format ("O"). * "zzzz" "Pacific Daylight Time" The long specific non-location format. Where that is unavailable, falls back to the long localized GMT format ("OOOO"). * "Z" Examples: * "Z..ZZZ" -0800 The ISO8601 basic format with hours, minutes and optional seconds fields. The format is equivalent to RFC 822 zone format (when optional seconds field is absent). This is equivalent to the "xxxx" specifier. * "ZZZZ" "GMT-8:00" The long localized GMT format. This is equivalent to the "OOOO" specifier. * "ZZZZZ" "-08:00" "-07:52:58" The ISO8601 extended format with hours, minutes and optional seconds fields. The ISO8601 UTC indicator "Z" is used when local time offset is 0. This is equivalent to the "XXXXX" specifier. See the LDML specifications for more information on the date and time formatting. Locale Inheritance When performing data look-ups, some data, such as width, may be missing and the default "wide" should be used, and sometime, the data is aliased. For example, "narrow" would be aliased to "abbreviated". Then, there is also a vertical inheritance, whereby a locale "fr-CA" would lookup up data in its parent "fr". When the inheritance is not natural, the "LDML" specifies a "parent". This information can be found in table locales. Ultimately, the root "locale" with value "und" is to be used. See the LDML specifications for more information. Errors This module does not die upon errors, unless you have set fatal to a true value. Instead it sets an error object that can be retrieved. When an error occurred, an error object will be set and the method will return "undef" in scalar context and an empty list in list context. Otherwise, the only occasions when this module will die is when there is an internal design error, which would be my fault. Advanced Search You can specify an operator other than the default "=" when providing arguments values, by placing it just before the argument value. Possible explicit operators are: * "=" * "!=" * "<" * "<=" * ">" * ">=" * "~" Will enable the use of regular expression. Alternatively, you can use a perl regular expression using the perl operator qr For example: my $all = $cldr->timezone_info( timezone => 'Europe/Simferopol', start => ['>1991-01-01','<1995-01-01'], ); This would result in: { tzinfo_id => 594, timezone => 'Europe/Simferopol', metazone => 'Moscow', start => '1994-04-30T21:00:00', until => '1997-03-30T01:00:00', } or, using the "~" operator: my $all = $cldr->time_formats( region => '~^U.*', ); my $all = $cldr->time_formats( region => qr/^U.*/, ); would result in: [ { time_format_id => 141, region => "UA", territory => "UA", locale => undef, time_format => "H", time_allowed => [qw( H hB h )], }, { time_format_id => 142, region => "UZ", territory => "UZ", locale => undef, time_format => "H", time_allowed => [qw( H hB h )], }, { time_format_id => 155, region => "UG", territory => "UG", locale => undef, time_format => "H", time_allowed => [qw( hB hb H h )], }, { time_format_id => 194, region => "UY", territory => "UY", locale => undef, time_format => "h", time_allowed => [qw( h H hB hb )], }, { time_format_id => 226, region => "UM", territory => "UM", locale => undef, time_format => "h", time_allowed => [qw( h hb H hB )], }, { time_format_id => 227, region => "US", territory => "US", locale => undef, time_format => "h", time_allowed => [qw( h hb H hB )], }, ] For single result methods, i.e. the methods that only return an hash reference, you can provide an array reference instead of a regular string for the primary field you are trying to query. So, for example, using the example above with the "timezone" info: my $all = $cldr->timezone_info( timezone => 'Europe/Simferopol', start => ['>1991-01-01','<1995-01-01'], ); or, querying the calendar terms: my $all = $cldr->calendar_term( locale => 'und', calendar => 'gregorian', # format, stand-alone term_context => 'format', # abbreviated, narrow, wide term_width => 'abbreviated', term_name => [qw( am pm )], ); # Returns an array reference like: [ { cal_term_id => 23478, locale => 'und', calendar => 'gregorian', term_type => 'day_period', term_context => 'format', term_width => 'abbreviated', alt => undef, term_name => 'am', term_value => 'AM', }, { cal_term_id => 23479, locale => 'und', calendar => 'gregorian', term_type => 'day_period', term_context => 'format', term_width => 'abbreviated', alt => undef, term_name => 'pm', term_value => 'PM', }, ] Of course, instead of returning an hash reference, as it normally would, it will return an array reference of hash reference. You can check if a table field containing an array has a certain value. For example: my $all = $cldr->metazones( has => [territories => 'CA'], ); This will return all metazone entries that have the array value "CA" in the field "territories". You can specify more than one field: my $all = $cldr->metazones( has => [territories => 'CA', timezones => 'America/Chicago'], ); You can also use an hash reference instead of an array reference: my $all = $cldr->metazones( has => { territories => 'CA', timezones => 'America/Chicago', }, ); And if the table contains only one array field, then you do not have tp specify the field name: my $all = $cldr->aliases( has => 'America/Toronto', ); This will implicitly use the field "replacement". However, if there are more than one array field, and you do not specify which one, then an error will be triggered. For example: my $all = $cldr->metazones( has => 'CA', ); say $cldr->error->message; # "There are 2 fields with array. You need to specify which one you want to check for value 'CA'" You can also ensure a certain order based on a field value. For example, you want to retrieve the "day" terms using calendar_term, but the "term_name" are string, and we want to ensure the results are sorted in this order: "mon", "tue", "wed", "thu", "fri", "sat" and "sun" my $terms = $cldr->calendar_terms( locale => 'en', calendar => 'gregorian', term_type => 'day', term_context => 'format', term_width => 'wide', order_by_value => [term_name => [qw( mon tue wed thu fri sat sun )]], ); my @weekdays = map( $_->{term_name}, @$terms ); # Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday If we had wanted to put Sunday first, we would have done: my $terms = $cldr->calendar_terms( locale => 'en', calendar => 'gregorian', term_type => 'day', term_context => 'format', term_width => 'wide', order_by_value => [term_name => [qw( sun mon tue wed thu fri sat )]], ); The parameter "order_by_value" supersedes the parameter "order" that may be provided. You can specify a particular data type to sort the values returned by SQLite, by providing the argument "order", such as: my $months = $cldr->calendar_terms( locale => 'en', calendar => 'gregorian', term_type => 'month', term_context => 'format', term_width => 'wide', order => [term_name => 'integer'], ); or, alternatively, using an hash reference with a single key: my $months = $cldr->calendar_terms( locale => 'en', calendar => 'gregorian', term_type => 'month', term_context => 'format', term_width => 'wide', order => { term_name => 'integer' }, ); my @month_names = map( $_->{term_name}, @$months ); # January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December SQL Schema The SQLite SQL schema is available in the file "scripts/cldr-schema.sql" The data are populated into the SQLite database using the script located in "scripts/create_database.pl" and the data accessible from or from Tables The SQL schema used to create the SQLite database is available in the "scripts" directory of this distribution in the file "cldr-schema.sql" The tables used are as follows, in alphabetical order: Table aliases * "alias_id" An integer field. * "alias" A string field. * "replacement" A string array field. * "reason" A string field. * "type" A string field. * "comment" A string field.
