location specifier for hebrew date js

sean al fox 5 years ago 0

Hi

I love your API's, and am using them for electronic display boards and soon the website for our shul.

For the scripts hdate-he.js and hdate-en.js, there is no location specifier. I have noticed as I use these, that the hebrew date does not turn over at Shkia or Tzeit HaKochavim, or even later into the evening. I am at GMT+02:00

On what location is the date calculation based?

Is there a way to specify a location to use?

Can the date turn over at Night-fall?

Regards

Aryeh Leib

REST API - location parameter

Ilan -kol-kore org 5 years ago updated by anonymous 5 years ago 1

Hi we have a jewish torah reading calculator on our website that uses Hebcal API. 

It seems that we are getting the same result with the i=on/off parameter. 

Here is a example: 

http://www.hebcal.com/converter/?cfg=json&hy=5779&hm=Tamuz&hd=4&h2g=1&i=on

And

http://www.hebcal.com/converter/?cfg=json&hy=5779&hm=Tamuz&hd=4&h2g=1&i=off

Are returning the same result. 

Can anyone explain to me whats wrong here ?

An internet search turns up HebCalVb6, a VB6/VBA module to demonstrate how to convert a Hebrew date into the Gregorian date. It can be used within Visual Basic or within a Excel Macro.

    Date duplicated in feed - what did I do?

    Marcy 5 years ago updated by anonymous 5 years ago 2

    The calendar I'm using allows one feed, so I created one with everything I needed - screen shot included. However, every date covers 2 days. What did I do wrong on my feed? The url is https://www.ruach.org/test_2.

    Not a bug

    Please educate me as to the correct lengths of months

    stephen girman 5 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 3 years ago 2

    I am not Jewish. I self-identify as Christian. I was exploring this calendar for my own edification, and to gain historical and cultural perspective.

    I understand the odd numbered months to be 30 days in length, i.e. Nisan (01), Sivan (03), Av (05), Tishrei (07), Kislev (09), Sh'vat (11), and in leap years Adar I (13).

    Conversely, the even numbered months are 29 days long, i.e. Iyyar (02), Tamuz (04), Elul (06), Cheshvan (08), Tevet (10), and Adar [ II } (12).

    For the current year, 5779, I was counting the number of days from Rosh Chodesh to Rosh Chodesh for the entire year, and it seems your algorithm inverts the lengths of months, odd numbered months being 29 days, even months 30 days, excepting Adar I which seems to me to be 30 days.

    Can someone help unconfuse me? Is my basic understanding incorrect, or is there an error in your algorithm? Thank you.
