I am working on an app that will export a calendar event to Google Calendar. Google Calendar requires that event datetimes be in UTC format. I can make the conversion from local (America/New_York) to UTC using pytz, but the time is off by an hour due to daylight savings time (Python thinks the offset is -0500 rather than -0400) so all of my exported events are off as a result.
This is a Python "problem," not a Django one, but I'm hoping someone else has dealt with this issue and come up with a solution. I'm first taking the naive datetime stored by Django and adding the local timezone pulled from settings.py then using astimezone(pytz.utc) to make the conversion to UTC. I'm not sure how to adjust for DST, especially since all the events will be in the future and DST will have to be calculated for each of them. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
