The goal of vacancesscolr
is to be able to quickly retrieve school holidays in France for the 2008-2018 period and bank holidays for any given year.
The data used in this package has been obtained from Antoine Augusti’s vacances-scolaires dataset, under the Etalab license (open license).
The functionalities are direct ports from his vacances-scolaires-france and jours-feries-france Python packages, under MIT license.
vacancesscolr
lives only on Github for now. Please use devtools
or remotes
to install it.
Check if a date is a holiday:
is_holiday("2018-03-05")
#> [1] TRUE
is_holiday("2018-03-05", zone = "A")
#> [1] FALSE
is_holiday("2018-03-05", zone = "B")
#> [1] TRUE
Retrieve all holidays for a year, optional zone and optional type of holiday:
