Old search method preferred

Deanne 9 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 9 years ago 2
I was using hebcal as part of a study into calendar chronology.
I prefer the old search method of keying in a go-to year
instead of the new click on previous or next year.

Hebcal widget for OS X is broken.

Mark Saper 10 years ago updated by anonymous 5 years ago 20
Michael -- did you change the format for the shabbat page?  I think this is the reason why people are complaining that the widget stopped working.  It may take a while for me to figure out what my widget was actually doing and fix it.  Also, I see you added a geo lookup.  I wanted to do that years ago but couldn't figure it out.

Hi all, we made a small change to our server configuration to permit API requests like this work without requiring HTTPS.


This should fix older versions of the widget.


Happy Chanukah!

how to get a list with my changes ?

carol 9 years ago 0
In prior years I have been able to formulate a list with all the relevant dates, events, times, etc. This year, every time I click on the List button, not only do my changes disappear, but nothing shows up for me to copy and paste into my file. I wrote to the author, but haven't heard back yet ... and the New Year is upon us ... I didn't even see most of my changes on the calendar format -- I would be delighted to type in the dates and times myself, were they listed in the calendar ...

Help ... ??

Thank you.

thank you so much for your patience. The problem should be fixed now. You can find it by searching for Hebcal in the Apple App Store, or you can directly get it via this link.

source code credit

Tsachi 4 weeks ago updated 4 weeks ago 2

Hi,

I am building a Garmin hebrew calendar implementation. I will include the below credits for some of the code that helped me. Would you also want me to put the Monkey C code into your repository, or is the credit enough? I have no probelm sharing, but functionality is limited by watch capabilities right now.

This implementation is using code based on the HebCal (https://www.hebcal.com) APIs.
While I do not call their API directly, I have used their source code (https://hebcal.github.io/api/hdate/modules.html) to help build some of my functionality.

Adjustments before Hillel II, and before 7-900?

info 1 month ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 4 weeks ago 1

This is awesome! However, I was wondering: Does this calculator make adjustments for years before Hillel II when the calendar was different, and/or before the change in the years which used to track time since the Exodus rather than from Creation?

Thanks for using Hebcal. In short, no, you should not look to Hebcal to give precise calculations for dates before 1752 CE. Hebcal uses the proleptic Gregorian calendar and does not attempt to compensate for dates that differ prior to the Gregorian reformation.
