Python date.today显示第二天

Question

I'm astounded by some code I wrote some time ago. For not entering in much detail i have a method that runs through some objects, wich have a date parameter. If the date parameter is equal to today's date, goes on.

I have set this in my local machine for test and have like 695 objects all with the same date, today, but when the action is run nothing happens, so i debug it to find that my expression date.today() returns datetime.date(2014, 3, 19) .

This is is incorrect, as the date of my computer from the date command is Tue Mar 18 20:56:09 AST 2014 .

I used from datetime import date . This is one of the more cryptic errors i have ever got. Any experience someone can share here? Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

The method is not timezone aware and there's no platform-independent way to make it so. What is generally done is incorporate something like pytz and call .today() as:

datetime.utcnow().replace(tzinfo = pytz.utc).strftime('%Y-%m-%d')
