How can I change this behaviour? My server config is:Well what you see is not "the date" but one representation of the DateTime object. You can use the strftime() method to render your date object to string in any form you want. This should also answer your question on postgres list. Your database adaptor turns database types into zope types.In addition: SQL also provides support converting a date type of the database into a string. See TO_DATE(...).Yes it does but its to_char() not to_date() ;)
Yup.
And I would not use it much because you loose all type information and the ability to sort accordingly and calculate with the values. Better format them just for output - which would be in python code.
It depends on the usecase..if you don't have to deal with different date format it is handy to convert it on the RDBMS level..otherwise you have to write something like <span tal:content="python: row.mydate.strftime(fmtstring)" /> instead of <span tal:content="row/mydate" /> -aj
