Automatically creating the schedule for the year
The following python script is able to generate the yearly schedule for a given year.
``` from datetime import datetime, timedelta from dateutil.rrule import rrule, DAILY, TH, SA import datetime as dt import xlsxwriter workbook = xlsxwriter.Workbook('demo.xlsx') bold = workbook.add_format({'bold': True}) def get_first_date_of_month(year, month): first_date = datetime(year, month, 1) return first_date def get_last_date_of_month(year, month): if month == 12: last_date = datetime(year, month, 31) else: last_date = datetime(year, month + 1, 1) + timedelta(days=-1) return last_date def add_month(workbook,start, end): worksheet = workbook.add_worksheet(f'{start.strftime("%B")} {start.year}') worksheet.set_column('A:H', 20) worksheet.write('A1',f'{start.strftime("%B")} {start.year}',bold) worksheet.write('A2','Date',bold) worksheet.write('B2','Start',bold) worksheet.write('C2','Start',bold) worksheet.write('D2','Event',bold) worksheet.write('E2','Volunteer 1',bold) worksheet.write('F2','Volunteer 2',bold) worksheet.write('G2','Volunteer 3',bold) worksheet.write('H2','Volunteer 4',bold) results = rrule(DAILY, dtstart = dt.datetime(start.year,start.month,start.day), until = dt.datetime(end.year,end.month,end.day), byweekday = (TH, SA), ) i = 2 for result in results: col = xlsxwriter.utility.xl_col_to_name(i) date = str(result).split(' ')[0] if result.isoweekday() == 4: worksheet.write(i, 0, date) worksheet.write(i, 1, '6:00PM') worksheet.write(i, 2, '8:00PM') worksheet.write(i, 3, 'Repairsday') elif result.isoweekday() == 6: worksheet.write(i, 0, date) worksheet.write(i, 1, '2:00PM') worksheet.write(i, 2, '6:00PM') worksheet.write(i, 3, 'Open Hours') i += 1 for i in range(1, 13): first= get_first_date_of_month(2022, i) last = get_last_date_of_month(2022, i) add_month(workbook,first,last) workbook.close() ```
To update this for any given year, replace the arguments to `get_first_date_of_month(2022,i)` and `get_last_date_of_month(2022,i)` with the desired years.
When you run the program, a file called `demo.xlsx` will be created in the current working directory, this is the yearly schedule.
