'Turns out I was looking in the wrong place. YeSQL relieves you of all the clj-time formatting as you can simply add the PostgreSQL cast directly to your placeholder so this:

-- name: add-birth<!
INSERT INTO births (date_time) VALUES (:date_time)

.... becomes:

-- name: add-birth<!
INSERT INTO births (date_time) VALUES (:date_time::timestamptz)

Now this works:

(add-birth<! {:date_time "1967-07-31 06:30:00 America/Caracas"})

    whatever that is, so I checked the clj-time docs and it appears
    to-timestamp doesn't handle timezones.

    Any ideas?


Looks like you might want this:

user> (clj-time.format/parse (clj-time.format/formatter "yyyy-MM-dd
HH:mm:ss ZZZ") "1967-07-31 06:30:00 America/Caracas")
#object[org.joda.time.DateTime 0x79e05a0 "1967-07-31T10:30:00.000Z"]

I suspect you'll then need some further work to make sure that the Joda
DateTime object correctly converts into what you actually want stored in
the database when it's set on the SQL PreparedStatement (something like
this
<http://tapestryjava.blogspot.ie/2014/09/postgres-jdbc-time-zones.html>,
but extending the type to Joda's DateTime rather than java.util.Date) --
or alternatively you might be OK just coercing the above to a
java.sql.Date or java.sql.Timestamp.
