Description: pytz - World Timezone Definitions for Python

        Introduction
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        pytz brings the Olson tz database into Python. This library allows
        accurate and cross platform timezone calculations using Python 2.4
        or higher. It also solves the issue of ambiguous times at the end
        of daylight saving time, which you can read more about in the Python
        Library Reference (``datetime.tzinfo``).
        
        Almost all of the Olson timezones are supported.
        
        .. note::
        
            This library differs from the documented Python API for
            tzinfo implementations; if you want to create local wallclock
            times you need to use the ``localize()`` method documented in this
            document. In addition, if you perform date arithmetic on local
            times that cross DST boundaries, the result may be in an incorrect
            timezone (ie. subtract 1 minute from 2002-10-27 1:00 EST and you get
            2002-10-27 0:59 EST instead of the correct 2002-10-27 1:59 EDT). A
            ``normalize()`` method is provided to correct this. Unfortunately these
            issues cannot be resolved without modifying the Python datetime
            implementation (see PEP-431).
        
        
        Installation
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        This package can either be installed using ``pip`` or from a tarball using the
        standard Python distutils.
        
        If you are installing using ``pip``, you don't need to download anything as the
        latest version will be downloaded for you from PyPI::
        
            pip install pytz
        
        If you are installing from a tarball, run the following command as an
        administrative user::
        
            python setup.py install
        
        
        Example & Usage
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Localized times and date arithmetic
        -----------------------------------
        
        >>> from datetime import datetime, timedelta
        >>> from pytz import timezone
        >>> import pytz
        >>> utc = pytz.utc
        >>> utc.zone
        'UTC'
        >>> eastern = timezone('US/Eastern')
        >>> eastern.zone
        'US/Eastern'
        >>> amsterdam = timezone('Europe/Amsterdam')
        >>> fmt = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z%z'
        
        This library only supports two ways of building a localized time. The
        first is to use the ``localize()`` method provided by the pytz library.
        This is used to localize a naive datetime (datetime with no timezone
        information):
        
        >>> loc_dt = eastern.localize(datetime(2002, 10, 27, 6, 0, 0))
        >>> print(loc_dt.strftime(fmt))
        2002-10-27 06:00:00 EST-0500
        
        The second way of building a localized time is by converting an existing
        localized time using the standard ``astimezone()`` method:
        
        >>> ams_dt = loc_dt.astimezone(amsterdam)
        >>> ams_dt.strftime(fmt)
        '2002-10-27 12:00:00 CET+0100'
        
        Unfortunately using the tzinfo argument of the standard datetime
        constructors ''does not work'' with pytz for many timezones.
        
        >>> datetime(2002, 10, 27, 12, 0, 0, tzinfo=amsterdam).strftime(fmt)  # /!\ Does not work this way!
        '2002-10-27 12:00:00 LMT+0018'
        
        It is safe for timezones without daylight saving transitions though, such
        as UTC:
        
        >>> datetime(2002, 10, 27, 12, 0, 0, tzinfo=pytz.utc).strftime(fmt)  # /!\ Not recommended except for UTC
        '2002-10-27 12:00:00 UTC+0000'
        
        The preferred way of dealing with times is to always work in UTC,
        converting to localtime only when generating output to be read
        by humans.
        
        >>> utc_dt = datetime(2002, 10, 27, 6, 0, 0, tzinfo=utc)
        >>> loc_dt = utc_dt.astimezone(eastern)
        >>> loc_dt.strftime(fmt)
        '2002-10-27 01:00:00 EST-0500'
        
        This library also allows you to do date arithmetic using local
        times, although it is more complicated than working in UTC as you
        need to use the ``normalize()`` method to handle daylight saving time
        and other timezone transitions. In this example, ``loc_dt`` is set
        to the instant when daylight saving time ends in the US/Eastern
        timezone.
        
        >>> before = loc_dt - timedelta(minutes=10)
        >>> before.strftime(fmt)
        '2002-10-27 00:50:00 EST-0500'
        >>> eastern.normalize(before).strftime(fmt)
        '2002-10-27 01:50:00 EDT-0400'
        >>> after = eastern.normalize(before + timedelta(minutes=20))
        >>> after.strftime(fmt)
        '2002-10-27 01:10:00 EST-0500'
        
        Creating local times is also tricky, and the reason why working with
        local times is not recommended. Unfortunately, you cannot just pass
        a ``tzinfo`` argument when constructing a datetime (see the next
        section for more details)
        
        >>> dt = datetime(2002, 10, 27, 1, 30, 0)
        >>> dt1 = eastern.localize(dt, is_dst=True)
        >>> dt1.strftime(fmt)
        '2002-10-27 01:30:00 EDT-0400'
        >>> dt2 = eastern.localize(dt, is_dst=False)
        >>> dt2.strftime(fmt)
        '2002-10-27 01:30:00 EST-0500'
        
        Converting between timezones is more easily done, using the
        standard astimezone method.
        
        >>> utc_dt = utc.localize(datetime.utcfromtimestamp(1143408899))
        >>> utc_dt.strftime(fmt)
        '2006-03-26 21:34:59 UTC+0000'
        >>> au_tz = timezone('Australia/Sydney')
        >>> au_dt = utc_dt.astimezone(au_tz)
        >>> au_dt.strftime(fmt)
        '2006-03-27 08:34:59 AEDT+1100'
        >>> utc_dt2 = au_dt.astimezone(utc)
        >>> utc_dt2.strftime(fmt)
        '2006-03-26 21:34:59 UTC+0000'
        >>> utc_dt == utc_dt2
        True
        
        You can take shortcuts when dealing with the UTC side of timezone
        conversions. ``normalize()`` and ``localize()`` are not really
        necessary when there are no daylight saving time transitions to
        deal with.
        
        >>> utc_dt = datetime.utcfromtimestamp(1143408899).replace(tzinfo=utc)
        >>> utc_dt.strftime(fmt)
        '2006-03-26 21:34:59 UTC+0000'
        >>> au_tz = timezone('Australia/Sydney')
        >>> au_dt = au_tz.normalize(utc_dt.astimezone(au_tz))
        >>> au_dt.strftime(fmt)
        '2006-03-27 08:34:59 AEDT+1100'
        >>> utc_dt2 = au_dt.astimezone(utc)
        >>> utc_dt2.strftime(fmt)
        '2006-03-26 21:34:59 UTC+0000'
        
        
        ``tzinfo`` API
        --------------
        
        The ``tzinfo`` instances returned by the ``timezone()`` function have
        been extended to cope with ambiguous times by adding an ``is_dst``
        parameter to the ``utcoffset()``, ``dst()`` && ``tzname()`` methods.
        
        >>> tz = timezone('America/St_Johns')
        
        >>> normal = datetime(2009, 9, 1)
        >>> ambiguous = datetime(2009, 10, 31, 23, 30)
        
        The ``is_dst`` parameter is ignored for most timestamps. It is only used
        during DST transition ambiguous periods to resolve that ambiguity.
        
        >>> print(tz.utcoffset(normal, is_dst=True))
        -1 day, 21:30:00
        >>> print(tz.dst(normal, is_dst=True))
        1:00:00
        >>> tz.tzname(normal, is_dst=True)
        'NDT'
        
        >>> print(tz.utcoffset(ambiguous, is_dst=True))
        -1 day, 21:30:00
        >>> print(tz.dst(ambiguous, is_dst=True))
        1:00:00
        >>> tz.tzname(ambiguous, is_dst=True)
        'NDT'
        
        >>> print(tz.utcoffset(normal, is_dst=False))
        -1 day, 21:30:00
        >>> tz.dst(normal, is_dst=False)
        datetime.timedelta(0, 3600)
        >>> tz.tzname(normal, is_dst=False)
        'NDT'
        
        >>> print(tz.utcoffset(ambiguous, is_dst=False))
        -1 day, 20:30:00
        >>> tz.dst(ambiguous, is_dst=False)
        datetime.timedelta(0)
        >>> tz.tzname(ambiguous, is_dst=False)
        'NST'
        
        If ``is_dst`` is not specified, ambiguous timestamps will raise
        an ``pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError`` exception.
        
        >>> print(tz.utcoffset(normal))
        -1 day, 21:30:00
        >>> print(tz.dst(normal))
        1:00:00
        >>> tz.tzname(normal)
        'NDT'
        
        >>> import pytz.exceptions
        >>> try:
        ...     tz.utcoffset(ambiguous)
        ... except pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError:
        ...     print('pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError: %s' % ambiguous)
        pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError: 2009-10-31 23:30:00
        >>> try:
        ...     tz.dst(ambiguous)
        ... except pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError:
        ...     print('pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError: %s' % ambiguous)
        pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError: 2009-10-31 23:30:00
        >>> try:
        ...     tz.tzname(ambiguous)
        ... except pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError:
        ...     print('pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError: %s' % ambiguous)
        pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError: 2009-10-31 23:30:00
        
        
        Problems with Localtime
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        The major problem we have to deal with is that certain datetimes
        may occur twice in a year. For example, in the US/Eastern timezone
        on the last Sunday morning in October, the following sequence
        happens:
        
            - 01:00 EDT occurs
            - 1 hour later, instead of 2:00am the clock is turned back 1 hour
              and 01:00 happens again (this time 01:00 EST)
        
        In fact, every instant between 01:00 and 02:00 occurs twice. This means
        that if you try and create a time in the 'US/Eastern' timezone
        the standard datetime syntax, there is no way to specify if you meant
        before of after the end-of-daylight-saving-time transition. Using the
        pytz custom syntax, the best you can do is make an educated guess:
        
        >>> loc_dt = eastern.localize(datetime(2002, 10, 27, 1, 30, 00))
        >>> loc_dt.strftime(fmt)
        '2002-10-27 01:30:00 EST-0500'
        
        As you can see, the system has chosen one for you and there is a 50%
        chance of it being out by one hour. For some applications, this does
        not matter. However, if you are trying to schedule meetings with people
        in different timezones or analyze log files it is not acceptable.
        
        The best and simplest solution is to stick with using UTC.  The pytz
        package encourages using UTC for internal timezone representation by
        including a special UTC implementation based on the standard Python
        reference implementation in the Python documentation.
        
        The UTC timezone unpickles to be the same instance, and pickles to a
        smaller size than other pytz tzinfo instances.  The UTC implementation
        can be obtained as pytz.utc, pytz.UTC, or pytz.timezone('UTC').
        
        >>> import pickle, pytz
        >>> dt = datetime(2005, 3, 1, 14, 13, 21, tzinfo=utc)
        >>> naive = dt.replace(tzinfo=None)
        >>> p = pickle.dumps(dt, 1)
        >>> naive_p = pickle.dumps(naive, 1)
        >>> len(p) - len(naive_p)
        17
        >>> new = pickle.loads(p)
        >>> new == dt
        True
        >>> new is dt
        False
        >>> new.tzinfo is dt.tzinfo
        True
        >>> pytz.utc is pytz.UTC is pytz.timezone('UTC')
        True
        
        Note that some other timezones are commonly thought of as the same (GMT,
        Greenwich, Universal, etc.). The definition of UTC is distinct from these
        other timezones, and they are not equivalent. For this reason, they will
        not compare the same in Python.
        
        >>> utc == pytz.timezone('GMT')
        False
        
        See the section `What is UTC`_, below.
        
        If you insist on working with local times, this library provides a
        facility for constructing them unambiguously:
        
        >>> loc_dt = datetime(2002, 10, 27, 1, 30, 00)
        >>> est_dt = eastern.localize(loc_dt, is_dst=True)
        >>> edt_dt = eastern.localize(loc_dt, is_dst=False)
        >>> print(est_dt.strftime(fmt) + ' / ' + edt_dt.strftime(fmt))
        2002-10-27 01:30:00 EDT-0400 / 2002-10-27 01:30:00 EST-0500
        
        If you pass None as the is_dst flag to localize(), pytz will refuse to
        guess and raise exceptions if you try to build ambiguous or non-existent
        times.
        
        For example, 1:30am on 27th Oct 2002 happened twice in the US/Eastern
        timezone when the clocks where put back at the end of Daylight Saving
        Time:
        
        >>> dt = datetime(2002, 10, 27, 1, 30, 00)
        >>> try:
        ...     eastern.localize(dt, is_dst=None)
        ... except pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError:
        ...     print('pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError: %s' % dt)
        pytz.exceptions.AmbiguousTimeError: 2002-10-27 01:30:00
        
        Similarly, 2:30am on 7th April 2002 never happened at all in the
        US/Eastern timezone, as the clocks where put forward at 2:00am skipping
        the entire hour:
        
        >>> dt = datetime(2002, 4, 7, 2, 30, 00)
        >>> try:
        ...     eastern.localize(dt, is_dst=None)
        ... except pytz.exceptions.NonExistentTimeError:
        ...     print('pytz.exceptions.NonExistentTimeError: %s' % dt)
        pytz.exceptions.NonExistentTimeError: 2002-04-07 02:30:00
        
        Both of these exceptions share a common base class to make error handling
        easier:
        
        >>> isinstance(pytz.AmbiguousTimeError(), pytz.InvalidTimeError)
        True
        >>> isinstance(pytz.NonExistentTimeError(), pytz.InvalidTimeError)
        True
        
        
        A special case is where countries change their timezone definitions
        with no daylight savings time switch. For example, in 1915 Warsaw
        switched from Warsaw time to Central European time with no daylight savings
        transition. So at the stroke of midnight on August 5th 1915 the clocks
        were wound back 24 minutes creating an ambiguous time period that cannot
        be specified without referring to the timezone abbreviation or the
        actual UTC offset. In this case midnight happened twice, neither time
        during a daylight saving time period. pytz handles this transition by
        treating the ambiguous period before the switch as daylight savings
        time, and the ambiguous period after as standard time.
        
        
        >>> warsaw = pytz.timezone('Europe/Warsaw')
        >>> amb_dt1 = warsaw.localize(datetime(1915, 8, 4, 23, 59, 59), is_dst=True)
        >>> amb_dt1.strftime(fmt)
        '1915-08-04 23:59:59 WMT+0124'
        >>> amb_dt2 = warsaw.localize(datetime(1915, 8, 4, 23, 59, 59), is_dst=False)
        >>> amb_dt2.strftime(fmt)
        '1915-08-04 23:59:59 CET+0100'
        >>> switch_dt = warsaw.localize(datetime(1915, 8, 5, 00, 00, 00), is_dst=False)
        >>> switch_dt.strftime(fmt)
        '1915-08-05 00:00:00 CET+0100'
        >>> str(switch_dt - amb_dt1)
        '0:24:01'
        >>> str(switch_dt - amb_dt2)
        '0:00:01'
        
        The best way of creating a time during an ambiguous time period is
        by converting from another timezone such as UTC:
        
        >>> utc_dt = datetime(1915, 8, 4, 22, 36, tzinfo=pytz.utc)
        >>> utc_dt.astimezone(warsaw).strftime(fmt)
        '1915-08-04 23:36:00 CET+0100'
        
        The standard Python way of handling all these ambiguities is not to
        handle them, such as demonstrated in this example using the US/Eastern
        timezone definition from the Python documentation (Note that this
        implementation only works for dates between 1987 and 2006 - it is
        included for tests only!):
        
        >>> from pytz.reference import Eastern # pytz.reference only for tests
        >>> dt = datetime(2002, 10, 27, 0, 30, tzinfo=Eastern)
        >>> str(dt)
        '2002-10-27 00:30:00-04:00'
        >>> str(dt + timedelta(hours=1))
        '2002-10-27 01:30:00-05:00'
        >>> str(dt + timedelta(hours=2))
        '2002-10-27 02:30:00-05:00'
        >>> str(dt + timedelta(hours=3))
        '2002-10-27 03:30:00-05:00'
        
        Notice the first two results? At first glance you might think they are
        correct, but taking the UTC offset into account you find that they are
        actually two hours appart instead of the 1 hour we asked for.
        
        >>> from pytz.reference import UTC # pytz.reference only for tests
        >>> str(dt.astimezone(UTC))
        '2002-10-27 04:30:00+00:00'
        >>> str((dt + timedelta(hours=1)).astimezone(UTC))
        '2002-10-27 06:30:00+00:00'
        
        
        Country Information
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        A mechanism is provided to access the timezones commonly in use
        for a particular country, looked up using the ISO 3166 country code.
        It returns a list of strings that can be used to retrieve the relevant
        tzinfo instance using ``pytz.timezone()``:
        
        >>> print(' '.join(pytz.country_timezones['nz']))
        Pacific/Auckland Pacific/Chatham
        
        The Olson database comes with a ISO 3166 country code to English country
        name mapping that pytz exposes as a dictionary:
        
        >>> print(pytz.country_names['nz'])
        New Zealand
        
        
        What is UTC
        ~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        'UTC' is `Coordinated Universal Time`_. It is a successor to, but distinct
        from, Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and the various definitions of Universal
        Time. UTC is now the worldwide standard for regulating clocks and time
        measurement.
        
        All other timezones are defined relative to UTC, and include offsets like
        UTC+0800 - hours to add or subtract from UTC to derive the local time. No
        daylight saving time occurs in UTC, making it a useful timezone to perform
        date arithmetic without worrying about the confusion and ambiguities caused
        by daylight saving time transitions, your country changing its timezone, or
        mobile computers that roam through multiple timezones.
        
        ..  _Coordinated Universal Time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time
        
        
        Helpers
        ~~~~~~~
        
        There are two lists of timezones provided.
        
        ``all_timezones`` is the exhaustive list of the timezone names that can
        be used.
        
        >>> from pytz import all_timezones
        >>> len(all_timezones) >= 500
        True
        >>> 'Etc/Greenwich' in all_timezones
        True
        
        ``common_timezones`` is a list of useful, current timezones. It doesn't
        contain deprecated zones or historical zones, except for a few I've
        deemed in common usage, such as US/Eastern (open a bug report if you
        think other timezones are deserving of being included here). It is also
        a sequence of strings.
        
        >>> from pytz import common_timezones
        >>> len(common_timezones) < len(all_timezones)
        True
        >>> 'Etc/Greenwich' in common_timezones
        False
        >>> 'Australia/Melbourne' in common_timezones
        True
        >>> 'US/Eastern' in common_timezones
        True
        >>> 'Canada/Eastern' in common_timezones
        True
        >>> 'Australia/Yancowinna' in all_timezones
        True
        >>> 'Australia/Yancowinna' in common_timezones
        False
        
        Both ``common_timezones`` and ``all_timezones`` are alphabetically
        sorted:
        
        >>> common_timezones_dupe = common_timezones[:]
        >>> common_timezones_dupe.sort()
        >>> common_timezones == common_timezones_dupe
        True
        >>> all_timezones_dupe = all_timezones[:]
        >>> all_timezones_dupe.sort()
        >>> all_timezones == all_timezones_dupe
        True
        
        ``all_timezones`` and ``common_timezones`` are also available as sets.
        
        >>> from pytz import all_timezones_set, common_timezones_set
        >>> 'US/Eastern' in all_timezones_set
        True
        >>> 'US/Eastern' in common_timezones_set
        True
        >>> 'Australia/Victoria' in common_timezones_set
        False
        
        You can also retrieve lists of timezones used by particular countries
        using the ``country_timezones()`` function. It requires an ISO-3166
        two letter country code.
        
        >>> from pytz import country_timezones
        >>> print(' '.join(country_timezones('ch')))
        Europe/Zurich
        >>> print(' '.join(country_timezones('CH')))
        Europe/Zurich
        
        
        Internationalization - i18n/l10n
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Pytz is an interface to the IANA database, which uses ASCII names. The `Unicode  Consortium's Unicode Locales (CLDR) <http://cldr.unicode.org>`_
        project provides translations. Thomas Khyn's
        `l18n <https://pypi.org/project/l18n/>`_ package can be used to access
        these translations from Python.

        database.  The latest version can be downloaded from the `Python Package
        Index <https://pypi.org/project/pytz/>`_.  The code that is used
        to generate this distribution is hosted on launchpad.net and available
        using git::
        
            git clone https://git.launchpad.net/pytz
        
        A mirror on github is also available at https://github.com/stub42/pytz

        hosted there.
        
        
        Bugs, Feature Requests & Patches
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Bugs can be reported using `Launchpad <https://bugs.launchpad.net/pytz>`__.
        
        
        Issues & Limitations
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        - Offsets from UTC are rounded to the nearest whole minute, so timezones
          such as Europe/Amsterdam pre 1937 will be up to 30 seconds out. This
          is a limitation of the Python datetime library.
        
        - If you think a timezone definition is incorrect, I probably can't fix
          it. pytz is a direct translation of the Olson timezone database, and
          changes to the timezone definitions need to be made to this source.
          If you find errors they should be reported to the time zone mailing
          list, linked from http://www.iana.org/time-zones.
