VERSION
        v0.2.0

DESCRIPTION
    This is a powerful replacement for DateTime::Locale and
    DateTime::Locale::FromData that use static data from over 1,000
    pre-generated modules, whereas DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR builds a
    "locale" object to access its Unicode CLDR <https://cldr.unicode.org/>
    (Common Locale Data Repository) data from SQLite data made available
    with Locale::Unicode::Data

    It provides the same API as DateTime::Locale, but in a dynamic way. This
    is important since in the Unicode LDML specifications
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/>, a "locale" inherits from its
    parent's data.

    Once a data is retrieved by a method, it is cached to avoid waste of
    time.

    It also adds a few methods to access the "locale" at time patterns
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#dateTimeFormats>, such
    as date_at_time_format_full, and native_variants

    It also provides key support for day period
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#Day_Period_Rule_Sets>

    It also provides support for interval datetime, and a method to find the
    greatest datetime difference element between 2 datetimes, as well as a
    method to get all the available format patterns for intervals, and a
    method to retrieve the components of an specific interval patterns

    It adds the "short" format for day missing in DateTime::Locale::FromData

    Note that in "CLDR" parlance, there are standard pattern formats. For
    example "full", "long", "medium", "short" or also "abbreviated",
    "short", "wide", "narrow" providing various level of conciseness.

CONSTRUCTOR
  new
        # Japanese as spoken in Japan
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'ja-JP' ) ||
            die( DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->error );
        # Okinawan as spoken in Japan Southern islands
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'ryu-Kana-JP-t-de-t0-und-x0-medical' ) ||
            die( DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->error );

        use Locale::Unicode;
        my $loc = Locale::Unicode->new( 'fr-FR' );
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( $loc ) ||
            die( DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->error );

    Specifying a calendar ID other than the default "gregorian":

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'ja-JP', calendar => 'japanese' ) ||
            die( DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->error );

    or, using an hash reference:

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'ja-JP', { calendar => 'japanese' } ) ||
            die( DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->error );

    Instantiate a new DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR object based on a "locale"
    provided, and returns it. By default, it uses the calendar "gregorian",
    but you can specify a different one with the "calendar" option.

    You can provide any "locale", even complex one as shown above, and only
    its core part will be retained. So, for example:

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'ryu-Kana-JP-t-de-t0-und-x0-medical' ) ||
            die( DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->error );
        say $locale; # ryu-Kana-JP

    If an error occurs, it sets an exception object and returns "undef" in
    scalar context, or an empty list in list context, or possibly a special
    "DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR::NullObject" in object context. See "error"
    for more information.

    The object is overloaded and stringifies into the core part of the
    original string provided upon instantiation.

    The core part is comprised of the "language" ID, an optional "script"
    ID, an optional "territory" ID and zero or multiple "variant" IDs. See
    Locale::Unicode and the LDML specifications
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35.html#Locale> for more
    information.

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'fr' );
        say $locale->day_period_format_abbreviated( $dt );
        # après-midi

    Returns a string representing the localised expression of the period of
    day the DateTime object provided is.

    If nothing relevant could be found somehow, this will return an empty
    string. "undef" is returned only if an error occurred.

    This is used to provide the relevant value for the token "B" or "b" in
    the Unicode LDML format patterns

    Locale::Unicode::Data and DateTime::Format::Unicode

  day_period_format_narrow
    Same as day_period_format_abbreviated, but returns the narrow format of
    day period.

        say $locale->day_period_stand_alone_abbreviated( $dt );
        # ""

    The previous example would yield nothing, and as per the LDML
    specifications
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#dfst-period>, you
    would need to use the localised AM/PM instead.

        my $dt = DateTime->new( year => 2024, hour => 13 );
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'fr' );
        say $locale->day_period_stand_alone_abbreviated( $dt );
        # ap.m.

    Returns a string representing the localised expression of the period of
    day the DateTime object provided is.

    If nothing relevant could be found somehow, this will return an empty
    string. "undef" is returned only if an error occurred.

    This is used to provide a stand-alone word that can be used as a title,
    or in a different context.

  day_periods
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $hash = $locale->day_periods;
        # Would return an hash reference like:

            night1 => ["21:00", "06:00"],
        }

    Returns an hash reference of day period token and values of 2-elements
    array (start time and end time in hours and minutes)

  day_stand_alone_abbreviated
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $days = $locale->day_stand_alone_abbreviated;
        say @$days;
        # Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun

    Returns an array reference of week day names in abbreviated format with
    Monday first and Sunday last.

    This is often identical to the "format" type.

    See the LDML specifications
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#months_days_quarters_e
    ras> for more information on the difference between the "format" and
    "stand-alone" types.

  day_stand_alone_narrow
    Same as day_stand_alone_abbreviated, but returns the narrow format days.

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $days = $locale->day_stand_alone_narrow;
        say @$days;
        # M, T, W, T, F, S, S

  day_stand_alone_short
    Same as day_stand_alone_abbreviated, but returns the short format days.

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $days = $locale->day_stand_alone_short;
        say @$days;
        # Mo, Tu, We, Th, Fr, Sa, Su

  day_stand_alone_wide
    Same as day_stand_alone_abbreviated, but returns the wide format days.

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $days = $locale->day_stand_alone_wide;
        say @$days;
        # Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday

  default_date_format_length
    This returns the string "medium"

  default_time_format_length
    This returns the string "medium"

  era_abbreviated
        my $array = $locale->era_abbreviated;
        say @$array;
        # BC, AD

    Returns an array reference of era names in abbreviated format.

    See also "calendar_eras_l10n" in Locale::Unicode::Data

  era_narrow
    Same as era_abbreviated, but returns the narrow format eras.

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $array = $locale->era_narrow;
        say @$array;
        # B, A

  era_wide
    Same as era_abbreviated, but returns the wide format eras.

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $array = $locale->era_wide;
        say @$array;
        # Before Christ, Anno Domini

  error
    Used as a mutator, this sets an exception object and returns an
    "DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR::NullObject" in object context (such as when
    chaining), or "undef" in scalar context, or an empty list in list
    context.

    The "DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR::NullObject" class prevents the perl
    error of "Can't call method "%s" on an undefined value" (see perldiag).
    Upon the last method chained, "undef" is returned in scalar context or
    an empty list in list context.

  first_day_of_week
        my $integer = $locale->first_day_of_week;

    Returns an integer ranging from 1 to 7 where 1 means Monday and 7 means
    Sunday.

    This represents what is the first day of the week for this "locale"

    Since the information on the first day of the week pertains to a
    "territory", if the "locale" you provided does not have such
    information, this method will find out the likely subtag to get the
    "locale"'s rightful "territory"

    See the LDML specifications about likely subtags
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35.html#Likely_Subtags> for more
    information.

    For example:

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );

    Since there is no "territory" associated, this will look up the likely
    subtag to find the target "locale" is "en-Latn-US", and thus the
    "territory" for "en" is "US" and first day of the week is 7

    Another example:

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'fr-Latn' );

    This will ultimately get the territory "FR" and first day of the week is
    1

        # Okinawan as spoken in the Japanese Southern islands
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'ryu' );

    This will become "ryu-Kana-JP" and thus the "territory" would be "JP"
    and first day of the week is 7

    This information is cached in the current object, like for all the other
    methods in this API.

  format_for
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $pattern = $locale->format_for( 'Bhm' );

    Provided with the format ID of an available format and this will return
    the localised "CLDR" pattern.

    Keep in mind that the "CLDR" formatting method of DateTime does not
    recognise all the "CLDR" pattern tokens. Thus, for example, if you chose
    the standard available pattern "Bhm", this method would return the
    localised pattern "h:mm B". However, DateTime does not understand the
    token "B"

        my $now = DateTime->now( locale => "en", time_zone => "Asia/Tokyo" );
        # Assuming $now = 2024-07-23T21:39:39
        say $now->format_cldr( 'h:mm B' );
        # 9:39 B

    But "B" is the day period, which can be looked up with "day_period" in
    Locale::Unicode::Data, which provides us with the day period token
    "night1", which itself can be looked up with "calendar_term" in
    Locale::Unicode::Data and gives us the localised string "at night". Thus
    the proper "CLDR" formatting really should be "9:39 at night"

    You can use DateTime::Format::Unicode instead of the default DateTime
    "CLDR" formatting if you want to get better support for all CLDR pattern
    tokens.

    With Japanese:

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'ja' );
        my $pattern = $locale->format_for( 'Bhm' );
        # BK:mm
        my $now = DateTime->now( locale => "ja", time_zone => "Asia/Tokyo" );
        say $now->format_cldr( 'BK:mm' );
        # B9:54

    But, this should have yielded: "夜9:54" instead.

  id
    This is an alias for locale

  interval_format
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $array = $locale->interval_format( GyMEd => 'G' );
        # ["E, M/d/y G", " – ", "E, M/d/y G", "E, M/d/y G – E, M/d/y G"]
        my $array = $locale->interval_format( GyMEd => 'M' );
        # ["E, M/d/y", " – ", "E, M/d/y G", "E, M/d/y – E, M/d/y G"]
        my $array = $locale->interval_format( GyMEd => 'd' );
        # ["E, M/d/y", " – ", "E, M/d/y G", "E, M/d/y – E, M/d/y G"]
        my $array = $locale->interval_format( GyMEd => 'y' );
        # ["E, M/d/y", " – ", "E, M/d/y G", "E, M/d/y – E, M/d/y G"]

    Provided with a format ID and a greatest difference token, and this will
    return an array reference composed of the following 4 elements:

    1. the first part
    2. the separator
    3. the second part
    4. the full interval pattern
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#intervalFormats>

    If nothing is found for the given format ID and greatest difference
    token, an empty array reference will be returned.

    If an error occurred, this will set an error object and return "undef"
    in scalar context and an empty list.

    With DateTime::Format::Unicode, you can do something like:

        my $fmt = DateTime::Format::Unicode->new(
            pattern => 'GyMEd',
            locale  => 'en',
        );
        my $str = $fmt->format_interval( $dt1, $dt2 );

    This will use this method interval_format

    If nothing is found, you can use the fallback pattern, which is
    something like this (varies from "locale" to "locale"): "{0} - {1}"

        my $array = $locale->interval_format( default => 'default' );
        # ["{0}", " - ", "{1}", "{0} - {1}"]

    However, note that not all locales have a fallback pattern, so even the
    query above may return an empty array.

    For example, as of version 45.0 (2024) of the "CLDR" data:

        # German:
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'de' );
        my $array = $locale->interval_format( default => 'default' );
        # []

        # French:
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'fr' );
        my $array = $locale->interval_format( default => 'default' );
        # []

        # Italian:
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'it' );
        my $array = $locale->interval_format( default => 'default' );
        # []

  interval_formats
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $ref = $locale->interval_formats;

    This would return something like:

        {
            Bh => [qw( B h )],
            Bhm => [qw( B h m )],
            d => ["d"],
            default => ["default"],
            Gy => [qw( G y )],
            GyM => [qw( G M y )],
            GyMd => [qw( d G M y )],
            GyMEd => [qw( d G M y )],
            GyMMM => [qw( G M y )],
            GyMMMd => [qw( d G M y )],
            GyMMMEd => [qw( d G M y )],
            H => ["H"],
            h => [qw( a h )],
            hm => [qw( a h m )],
            Hm => [qw( H m )],
            hmv => [qw( a h m )],
            Hmv => [qw( H m )],
            Hv => ["H"],
            hv => [qw( a h )],
            M => ["M"],
            Md => [qw( d M )],
            MEd => [qw( d M )],
            MMM => ["M"],
            MMMd => [qw( d M )],
            MMMEd => [qw( d M )],
            y => ["y"],
            yM => [qw( M y )],
            yMd => [qw( d M y )],
            yMEd => [qw( d M y )],
            yMMM => [qw( M y )],
            yMMMd => [qw( d M y )],
            yMMMEd => [qw( d M y )],
            yMMMM => [qw( M y )],
        }

    Returns an hash reference of all available interval format IDs and their
    associated greatest difference token
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#intervalFormats>

    The "default" interval format pattern is something like "{0} – {1}", but
    this changes depending on the "locale" and is not always available.

    "{0}" is the placeholder for the first datetime and "{1}" is the
    placeholder for the second one.

    See "interval_formats" in Locale::Unicode::Data

  interval_greatest_diff
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $diff = $locale->interval_greatest_diff( $dt1, $dt2 );

    Provided with 2 DateTime objects, and this will compute the greatest
    difference
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#intervalFormats>.

    Quoting from the LDML specifications
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#intervalFormats>:

    "The data supplied in CLDR requires the software to determine the
    calendar field with the greatest difference before using the format
    pattern. For example, the greatest difference in "Jan 10-12, 2008" is
    the day field, while the greatest difference in "Jan 10 - Feb 12, 2008"
    is the month field. This is used to pick the exact pattern."

    If both "DateTime" objects are identical, this will return an empty
    string.

    If an error occurred, an exception object is set and "undef" is returned
    in scalar context, and an empty list in list context.

        say $locale->native_territory; # ''

    Returns the "locale"'s "territory" name as written in the "locale" own
    language.

    If there is no "territory" specified in the "locale", it will return
    "undef"

    If there is a "territory" in the "locale", but, somehow, it cannot be
    found in the "locale"'s own language tree, it will return an empty
    string.

  native_variant
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'es-valencia' );
        say $locale->native_variant; # Valenciano

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'es' );
        say $locale->native_variant; # undef

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en-Latn-005' );
        say $locale->native_variant; # undef

    Returns the "locale"'s "variant" name as written in the "locale" own
    language.

    If there is no "variant" specified in the "locale", it will return
    "undef", and if there is more than one "variant" it will return the
    value for the first one only. To get the values for all variants, use
    native_variants

    If there is a "variant" in the "locale", but, somehow, it cannot be
    found in the "locale"'s own language tree, it will return an empty
    string.

  native_variants
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'ja-Latn-fonipa-hepburn-heploc' );
        say $locale->native_variants;
        # ["IPA Phonetics", "Hepburn romanization", ""]

    Here, "heploc" is an empty string in the array, because it is a
    deprecated "variant", and as such there is no localised name value for
    it in the "CLDR" data.

        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'es' );
        say $locale->native_variants; # []

    Returns an array reference of each of the "locale"'s "variant" subtag
    name as written in the "locale" own language.

    If there is no "variant" specified in the "locale", it will return an
    empty array.

    If a "variant" subtag cannot be found in the "locale"'s own language
    tree, then an empty string will be set in the array instead.

    Either way, the size of the array will always be equal to the number of
    variants in the "locale"

  prefers_24_hour_time
    This checks whether the "locale" prefers the 24H format or the 12H one
    and returns true (1) if it prefers the 24 hours format or false (0)
    otherwise.

  quarter_format_abbreviated
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $array = $locale->quarter_format_abbreviated;
        say @$array;
        # Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4

    Returns an array reference of quarter names in abbreviated format.

  quarter_stand_alone_abbreviated
        my $locale = DateTime::Locale::FromCLDR->new( 'en' );
        my $array = $locale->quarter_stand_alone_abbreviated;

        # Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4

    Returns an array reference of quarter names in abbreviated format.

    See also "calendar_term" in Locale::Unicode::Data

    Note that there is often little difference between the "format" and
    "stand-alone" format types.

    See the LDML specifications
    <https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#months_days_quarters_e

SERIALISATION
    "Locale::Unicode" supports Storable::Improved, Storable, Sereal and CBOR
    serialisation, by implementing the methods "FREEZE", "THAW",
    "STORABLE_freeze", "STORABLE_thaw"

    For serialisation with Sereal, make sure to instantiate the Sereal
    encoder with the "freeze_callbacks" option set to true, otherwise,
    "Sereal" will not use the "FREEZE" and "THAW" methods.

    See "FREEZE/THAW CALLBACK MECHANISM" in Sereal::Encoder for more
    information.

    For CBOR, it is recommended to use the option "allow_sharing" to enable
    the reuse of references, such as:

        my $cbor = CBOR::XS->new->allow_sharing;

    Also, if you use the option "allow_tags" with JSON, then all of those
    modules will work too, since this option enables support for the
    "FREEZE" and "THAW" methods.
