Installation

pip install egydata

Quick Start

from egydata import governorates, cities, phoneAreas, timezones

# Get all governorates
all_govs = governorates.get_all()

# Find a city by name
maadi = cities.search("Maadi")

# Check current time in Egypt
now = timezones.now()

---

Usage

Governorates

from egydata import governorates

# Get all 27 governorates
all_govs = governorates.get_all()
# [{'id': 1, 'code': 'CAI', 'name': 'القاهرة', 'nameEn': 'Cairo'}, ...]

# Find by code
cairo = governorates.get_by_code("CAI")
# {'id': 1, 'code': 'CAI', 'name': 'القاهرة', 'nameEn': 'Cairo'}

# Find by id
alex = governorates.get_by_id(2)
# {'id': 2, 'code': 'ALX', 'name': 'الإسكندرية', 'nameEn': 'Alexandria'}

# Search (Arabic, English, or code, partial match)
results = governorates.search("alex")
# [{'id': 2, 'code': 'ALX', 'name': 'الإسكندرية', 'nameEn': 'Alexandria'}]

ar_results = governorates.search("القاهرة")
# [{'id': 1, 'code': 'CAI', 'name': 'القاهرة', 'nameEn': 'Cairo'}]

Cities

from egydata import cities

# Get cities by governorate code
cairo_cities = cities.get_by_governorate("CAI")
# [{'id': 1, 'name': 'مدينة نصر', 'nameEn': 'Nasr City', 'governorateCode': 'CAI'}, ...]

# Find by id
sharm = cities.get_by_id(131)
# {'id': 131, 'name': 'شرم الشيخ', 'nameEn': 'Sharm El Sheikh', 'governorateCode': 'SIS'}

# Search cities (Arabic or English, partial match)
found = cities.search("Maadi")
# [{'id': 3, 'name': 'المعادي', 'nameEn': 'Maadi', 'governorateCode': 'CAI'}]

Phone Area Codes

from egydata import phoneAreas

# Get all area codes (landline and mobile)
all_codes = phoneAreas.get_all()
# [{'code': '010', 'region': 'ڤودافون', 'regionEn': 'Vodafone'}, ...]

# Look up region by code
region = phoneAreas.get_region("03")
# {'code': '03', 'region': 'الإسكندرية', 'regionEn': 'Alexandria'}

# Find area code by region name (Arabic or English)
entry = phoneAreas.get_code("Mansoura")
# {'code': '050', 'region': 'الدقهلية (المنصورة)', 'regionEn': 'Dakahlia (Mansoura)'}

Timezone

from egydata import timezones

print(timezones.name)      # 'Africa/Cairo'
print(timezones.offset)    # '+02:00' (standard time offset)

now = timezones.now()      # current date/time in Egypt (timezone-aware datetime)
print(now.isoformat())

# Check if daylight saving time is active (Egypt resumed DST in 2023)
is_dst = timezones.isDST() # returns True if current offset is +03:00

# Optionally check a specific date
from datetime import datetime
date = datetime(2024, 8, 1)
print(timezones.isDST(date))  # True (during DST period)
