Summary of Changes

Adds an optional weekday: bool = False parameter to naturalday() to format dates within a 6-day window using weekday names (e.g. "this Saturday", "last Sunday") (#102).

Changes Implemented

  1. Updated naturalday(value, format="%b %d", *, weekday=False) in src/humanize/time.py:
    • Dates 2–6 days in the future return _("this %s") % day_name (e.g. "this Saturday").
    • Dates 2–6 days in the past return _("last %s") % day_name (e.g. "last Sunday").
    • today, tomorrow, and yesterday remain unchanged.
  2. Added comprehensive unit test test_naturalday_weekday in tests/test_time.py.

Testing

  • pytest tests/test_time.py: All 384 tests passed.

Verified locally on the PR branch (Python 3.13, editable install), frozen at Wed 2026-08-12:

Full boundary matrix for naturalday(d, weekday=True):

offset result
today / yesterday / tomorrow today / yesterday / tomorrow (existing behavior untouched)
-2d last Monday
-6d last Thursday
-7d falls back to format (Aug 05) — correct out-of-range boundary
+2d this Friday
+6d this Tuesday
+7d falls back to format — correct
weekday=False (default) identical to master for all inputs

Master control: weekday=True raises TypeError: unexpected keyword argument — purely additive, zero risk to existing callers. The new strings are wrapped in _() so they flow through humanize's i18n catalog like the rest of the module.

pytest tests/test_time.py — 383 passed, including the new freeze_time-based tests.

Two non-blocking notes:

  1. Boundary asymmetry is intentional-looking but worth a docs sentence: past side covers [-6, -2] and future [2, +6], while ±1 are absorbed by yesterday/tomorrow and ±7+ fall through. The docstring documents it accurately; just make sure the README example (if added later) matches.
  2. %A uses locale-aware day names — consistent with the rest of humanize, but non-English locales will produce e.g. "last понедельник" unless translations cover last %s/this %s. Worth one line in the PR description so translators know new keys exist.

Feature is coherent and well-tested. Approving.
