Dev info

kalendar.factory.MissalFactory#create instantiates and builds kalendar.models.Calendar object.

kalendar.models.Calendar internally keeps the data in an ordered dict where a key is a datetime.date object, and the value is an instance of kalendar.models.Day class.

Each kalendar.models.Day contains three list properties, tempora, celebration and commemoration, each one containing kalendar.models.Observance objects, representing given observance. tempora refers to the liturgical time, such as "The first Friday after Pentecost", celebration holds kalendar.models.Observances that are actually celebrated in given day, such as "Assumption of Mary". commemoration contains objects representing observances that should be commemorated with the main celebration.

Each kalendar.models.Day has method get_proper, which calculates the actual readings in vernacular and Latin for given calendar day.

Each kalendar.models.Observance has method get_proper, which returns the readings for the given observance (regardless of its place in the calendar).
