A Python library that converts numbers, dates, times, file sizes, and deltas into human-readable strings like '3 minutes ago' or '1.0 MB'. It supports localization into many languages. This original repo has moved development to python-humanize/humanize.
Use cases
- turn timestamps into '3 minutes ago' strings
- format file sizes as human-readable MB/KB
- format large integers with commas or words like '1.2 million'
- localize human-readable durations into other languages
- convert timedelta objects into readable durations
- display numbers as words for accessibility
When to choose
- you need human-friendly formatting of numbers, dates, or file sizes in Python
- you need localized humanization in many languages
- you want a small, MIT-licensed utility with no heavy dependencies
When to avoid
- you want active development - use the python-humanize/humanize fork instead
- you need machine-parseable formatting rather than human-readable output
- you are not working in Python
