Exclude period

[atiberghien]

Hi,

I would like to modelize a simple use cas: a shop opened from 01/01/2018 to 31/12/2018 except during the period going from the 01/07/2018 to the 31/12/2018.

Several others issues are relating to the fact that there is no dtstart in a recurrence.Rule . As documented in code, it's not defined in the RFC even if it's possible with dateutil.rrule.

So, how can I modelize my use-case : an excluded period nested into a another ?

Cheers

I do not think it should go into 'django_recurrence' if it is not RFC compliant. This will cause problems with other products like django_ical

For your specific use case i would try to store the exclusion period in another field and pass it to the 'dateutil.rrule` before calculating the recurrences.
