This API aims to solve the problem of determination of holidays. It is supposed to be used in any kind of environment which means independence from network or database connections.

There are two release branches which are based on different Java versions.

0.4.x - Java 7 - uses JODA Time API

0.5.x - Java 8

Your help will be very much appreciated

At any time you can have and use your own XML file containing your own holiday rules.

The most important thing is the validation of the holiday XML data files. If you like you could look at your countries XML file and see if you can find a missing/wrong holiday rule. The smaller your country is the more important it would be to have your opinion on the XML data.

If you would rather like to have the XML data file offline then you can download the jar file. It contains some XML configuration files named Holidays_[country].xml which contains the necessary information for determining holidays.

For the very latest XML data please refer to the Github repository.
