Django Time Zone Django.How

In model

from django.utils import timezone

timestamp = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)

In View


    import pytz
    from datetime import datatime

    leave = leave.objects.get(pk=1)
    time_zone = pytz.timezone('America/Bogota') # set timezone here

 

Before save

    leave.start_date = time_zone.localize(datetime.now())
    leave.save()
    leave.start_date
    > datetime.datetime(2020, 6, 17, 11, 50, 25, tzinfo=<DstTzInfo 'America/Bogota' -05-1 day, 19:00:00 STD>)
       # when USE_TZ is False
  

 

Using customer’s time zone in template
{% load humanize %}
{% load tz %}

{% timezone user.profile.timezone %}
{% if project.create_date %}{{ project.due_date }} {{user.profile.timezone}}  {{ project.due_date|naturaltime }}Not specified {% endif %}
{% endtimezone %}
